Topic: Teaching Bitcoin is not do or die - page 5. (Read 1165 times)

The point here is not to force others to learn about bitcoin. When they really have no interest in bitcoin, whatever you do to pique their curiosity is counterproductive; sometimes it makes them hate it and look at you with eyes like you are a fin scammer. Change the subject immediately if they don't like it. Perhaps just teaching and guiding those who know how to find it will be a better thing. Anyway, we need to be effective, not cram for everyone.

In addition, we should not condemn too those people who show no interest to bitcoin. Simply because they have their own reasons and their own beliefs, hence they deserve respect too. And to think that it’s not our loss but them, so we should only focus sharing our insights only to those who are hunger to learn because for sure they will also promote it to their peers once they are knowledgeable enough to do it. Yes, teaching bitcoin is not a do or die, that’s why we should not force people to learn about bitcoin if they don’t have the will and interest to learn.

So true. Because the most important thing is that people have their own interest in this. And when they start digging for information about bitcoin independently, that's where maybe we can step in to help them not find wrong information. Spreading awareness about bitcoin is great but it has to be in a good way too. If we are too passionate about spreading awareness about Bitcoin then we may end up being shunned by those around us who feel uncomfortable with our presence.

Sometimes, people who are very passionate about something (for example, bitcoin) turn out to be overly persistent and assertive in agitating the subject of their passion. The point here is the excitement that a person experiences from delight and awareness of future prospects, if we talk about bitcoin. Such a person wants to share this knowledge with his friends and relatives in order to help them share valuable information for the benefit of their loved ones. But most often, these impulses are met with indifference or distrust of loved ones who don't perceive this information with similar enthusiasm. Because of this, there is a certain dissonance in the views. At this point it is better to stop and not try to convince them that bitcoin is the solution to all their problems and a ticket to a brighter future.

I tend to think that there is no need to agitate and try to attract more new users in bitcoin, as in some kind of sect. I believe that when people themselves are ready, they will find a way to get information about it. There is enough information about btc around, whether it is in the news, or promotions carried out by enthusiasts. I want to say that bitcoin appears in the news background quite constantly and I hear from people who are far from bitcoin mentioning about it (heard about BTC for a long time, but they are not in a hurry to try it). So, many of our people around us have heard about bicoin more than once, but still they are in no hurry to study it in more detail. If they were interested, they would have taken a step in this direction long ago. Talking to friends like "buy BTC - get rich" is the dumbest way to talk about bitcoin.

You are indeed right in saying that only a personal example is the best way. Less words - more results. And then, when you have something to show, others will start asking questions. It is this moment that will be the best to talk about btc.

In general, I believe that it is not entirely right to try to change other people's lives. First, change yours for the better. Start with this. Otherwise, it turns out that as soon as they learn about bitcoin, people are in a hurry to advertise it to everyone around.

How you approach the situation of introducing bitcoin to people by allowing them to meet you first rather than pushing yourself on them is the best way.

When they come to you, you have all the right to be calm and explain things in a more relaxed and realistic way. But when you pressure them or first meet them to explain to them about bitcoin, as humans, they will think that you have anything to gain from it and they would be somehow rude about it.

Even if it is family members or friends or colleagues at work allow them to come ask you first, then you have the grand to explain to them about bitcoin and when you do, do not explain it as a get rich quick scheme.
This is what many people do and in the end when there is correction in the Bitcoin price, this people they introduced will have to blame you for their lost.

I personally wouldn't start a conversation about bitcoin with anyone if they don't start it first. I prefer to wait for people to ask first. then I will respond and explain what they need to know. Without exaggerating and I will tell what it is. and let him decide for himself whether he is interested or not. Even this method I also use in my family. i.e. I have never encouraged or convinced any of my family members to like and invest in bitcoin. but they were the ones who asked me first. And then I told a long story explaining according to my knowledge capacity. But I have books on bitcoin. and initially one of my family saw and read it. and now my brother is even more bitcoiners than me. he has even better insight than I do. and the investment is also much more than mine. I'm racing with my brother regarding bitcoin investment.

Before I learn about Bitcoin I never like the idea of forcing someone to do something and I could gladly the decentralized Bitcoin which technically gives liberation is one of the reasons why I like BTC because it define something I totally believe right from my teenage age till now.

Spreading bitcoin awareness or teaching people about bitcoin is the best way for rapid adoption of bitcoin. Some forum members try to force their kids,friends and relative to learn bitcoin which shouldn't be so. Learning of bitcoin should be based on interest and not by force. If you try to teach someone about bitcoin and that person is not showing any interest, it is better that you forget about it,and try to talk to someone else who will be interested on it. Remember, no matter the effort that you put in,to teach someone who is skeptical to accept new ideas or that person feels that he is a professor or knows more than you in other aspect of life,or if he is even richer than you,will end up being a wasted effort. This can discourage you to stop spreading bitcoin awareness, due to the negative responds that you will get from them.

The challenge I always have is to convince people not to invest in bitcoin. After all bitcoin is not an investment and it is not meant to give you profit. It is a currency and if you want to introduce it to someone you should introduce it as a currency too.

That way they won't have a heart attack each time price has a sudden drop or a sudden rise while using bitcoin the way it was meant to.

I personally wouldn't start a conversation about bitcoin with anyone if they don't start it first.

I will like to ask how it is possible to force someone to invest in Bitcoin because you can't force somebody to invest their money on something they don't know much about and if anyone comes to me and tell me to help them invest in Bitcoin I will advise them that I'm not up for the task that they should do investigation for themselves by using Google search engine.
