Topic: The bump in the price are filled with more reward than profit :-> - page 2. (Read 315 times)
hopefully you guys aren't just encouraging newbies to "invest" in bitcoin but instead are introducing them to "bitcoin the decentralized currency". otherwise you are just bringing in more speculators in this world which leads to more volatility and postpones the future adoption even more since we need real adoption of bitcoin if we want it to grow, that means adoption as a currency not as an investment so that people can make a ton of "fiat" profit and pay off their debts.
I have to start with some background information first to explain this. About a year ago, we held a open day for "newbies" at our local Bitcoin meetup and we encouraged members to bring "newbies" to the meetup for a introduction session on what Bitcoin is and how to buy your first bitcoins.
During this event, older members helped newbies to create their first wallets and we showed them how to buy their first coins. We also created a WhatsApp support group for these people to assist them "free of charge" for 3 months to manage and to protect their coins.
I am glad to report that 100% of them held onto those coins and 100% of them made a profit a year later.
We have been getting a flood of gratitude from these people and some of them even managed to pay off their personal debt with the profit they made or paid for their children's tuition fees for their studies.
Yes, a bump in the price is nice, but the smile on someone's face when this technology changed their actual financial position, is priceless.
