Topic: Some of my friends still think Bitcoin is scam and Ponzi - page 18. (Read 1542 times)
I think if you tried to explain to them what bitcoin is and they did not want to understand, then they just do not need it. Also it is not necessary to overpersuade them. Because they do not understand well in the matter, they can do something stupid, and you are to blame for the result.
I tried already explaining with my friends and relatives what is bitcoin and how it works but still they don't understand it.What always comes to their mind is that bitcoin is a scam and ponzi.Since then,i stop already convincing people to join bitcoin and now they are regret not believe in bitcoin when i first introduced to them.
Whenever we had a chance to go out with my friends,i always try to convinced them to try bitcoin.At first they thought bitcoin is a scam,but i never stop explaining to them that it was not a ponzi,i encouraged them to learn bitcoin if they have time until they join bounty campaign.And now they are already enjoying their income with bitcoin.
Dear all,
I just heard some of my friends chatting in a gathering and they think Bitcoin is scam and Ponzi. I just give them a smile and wish they will educate themselves a bit.
So, I would like you to give me some suggestions, how I can give them some hints with soft words which can change their mind or at least give them some more space to think twice?
I've met you in the same situation, and many of my friends think bitcoin is a scam. I just heard some of my friends chatting in a gathering and they think Bitcoin is scam and Ponzi. I just give them a smile and wish they will educate themselves a bit.

I spend a lot of time and energy explaining to them what bitcoin is and how it works.
But that hasn't changed their view of bitcoin, which still sees bitcoin as a scam.
I'm not going to introduce bitcoin to my friends now.
This is because of the structure of crypto world which is being used for speculation, imagine investing in coins just because they say something nice that they are going to do in the future without anything to back that up.
It is necessary first to explain to people what scam and Ponzi are, and then to demonstrate how Bitcoin differs from Ponzi's schemes. Well, in general, these people are hard to change.

Same here too. Many of my friends and family still don't believe bitcoin is real and a legit way to earn something. Well everyone is entitled to his or her opinion
Since you are friends, it's better that you tell them what Bitcoin can do in the future. If they don't believe then just ignore them. One day they will realized what they've done. 
Yeah and it also depend on how he/she explains it because those who thought that btc is scam or ponzi just don't know what they are believing. We grown up using traditional way of paying goods and services by using fiat currency so I think it is normal that some people don't totally believe btc. Well, people have different perspective in life and even if they are wrong with what they say, they will stand with their pride and trying to convinced themselves that they are really correct. 
well, what the change in the world will happen if your friends would stop think the btc is a scam and ponzi?
they correct answer is - nothing)
so just do not waste your time trying to prove them something) just enjoy good time with your friend. imho.

winyau8888, it is better to leave them thinking so,if they want to learn about BTC and cryptocurrency they can just go online and search for facts.Sometimes is better leave things to evolve in natural way,if you try explain them some things some of your friends could invest the money and lose it for some reason(hack,lost private key/seed,big price drop).
When it comes to money and investment people should take responsibility for themselves.If somebody thinks BTC is scam&ponzi let him continue to think that,at the end every opinion should be respected.

I wonder though if they thought the same if they heard about Bitconnect?

If you know many things about bitcoin then share it to them then ask what is the definition of "Ponzi" and "Scam". In my experience, the people who are saying bitcoin as a ponzi or scam doesn't know really what is the definition of these 2 terms.

You want so give them some hints? They are your friends right? You know how they are thinking about a certain thing and as you said, they think bitcoin as a scam. You don't need to give some hints to them. What are you going to do?? Just continue earning and let them see what you have achieved in earning here in cryptocurrency and that is the time that they will change their mind and will join in what you are doing. You don't need to educate them especially if they are close-minded.
Just continue earning and show it to your friends in the future that the thing they say its a scam is the thing that will make you rich in the next years.
Show them the graph which indicates the price of BTC at the beginning of 2009 and show them the current price of BTC as of today or in the beginning of this year. Tell them there are pretty good chances that bitcoin will cross $25k this year. Tell them the benefits of using BTC as a currency and let them know how much profit others have made investing in Bitcoin. At last you must say them if not bitcoin there are 1500 other currencies as well which still have a bright future ahead. They will then know that cryptocurrencies are here to stay for long.
Good point. So many people fail to observe how bitcoin has rapidly risen in value ever since its inception way back in 2009. Something worth a couple of cents is worth thousands of dollars at the moment which is seriously insane and worth appreciating if you think about it. Coins like Bitconnect etc are some of the main reasons why many people shy away from the crypto world since they fail to observe the legit coins hidden among the plethora of scam coins out there. Bitcoin is here to stay and there is no need to convince anyone regarding this since its upto them if they wish to be a part of this revolution or not.
To be honest, my friends all think bitcoin is a ponzi scheme.
When I first entered the cryptocurrency market, I thought it was a ponzi scheme, but only when you really understood the blockchain and bitcoin did you change your mind.

From the start, I just tempt my friends with the payouts in my signature & bounty campaigns. Then once they are interested in bitcoin, I explained it to them to have knowledge on it. Now they are thinking much and making succeding questions. Making them knowledgeable about bitcoin can really be self satisfying because I could educate them the possibilities of bitcoin in the future.

Yes that is true. My friends and classmates really thinks that bitcoin was only a scam but now they change their mind because of several proofs that in Bitcoin we can really earn.

first you should know, your way to convey good knowledge and understanding. this is important, you should do step by step slowly. and give them good insights, direct illumination. shows the market. yes quite difficult and hassle I guess.

It is funny to know that your friends still think that bitcoins are scam as they will be the once who belong to that category who is not updated about anything that is going on the society and they may be the once who are stuck in their own little fancy world where they only know on how to do social networking and chatting and wasting time on unwanted things . The could even understand what bitcoins are if they at least spend some time with the news paper or find little bitcoins time to check the news that is going on in the world.All i got to say is they belong to the category of idiots who has no idea about what is going on in the world. In fact they can be called as bunch of idiots as bitcoins is trending everywhere and it is being the main topic every news media .
