Has anyone ever tried wearing a Bitcoin clothing in public? I wore mine to an event earlier this week and noticed that most of the young age people were looking at it. One person even asked me if I owned a Bitcoin(which I've answered him ). It just popped into my mind that is it making myself vulnerable to bad people. We are aware that we should keep quiet if we own Bitcoin because of the risk that someone will hurt us or target us so that they can get our Bitcoin.

Someone said a decade before that every picture has two sides, one that we are seeing and the other that is transparent or hidden, and the interesting thing is to find that. In your case similar thing is present and a lot of members suggested that wearing Bitcoin clothes in public is not good because some bad people will target you and my give harm you or steal your Bitcoin or valuable things and this is true but has anyone tried to see that other side of picture. Well, I don't think that someone will identify that and that is a positive message to the public. Yes, you read the right thing, we know a lot of people did not know even in 2023 because of the fewer advertisements of Bitcoin, and wearing Bitcoin clothes will spread Bitcoin to larger people when someone looking at your shirt and sees the logo of Bitcoin they will surely check it on Google once they reach to their house.

I think that would be very risky. Some people in my country still think that bitcoin owners are rich young people because they hear the price of 1 btc reaches tens of thousands of dollars without knowing that we can only have 0.0005 btc in our wallet. Then of course this will become the center of public attention and believe me it will be very uncomfortable when people who don't learn about bitcoin ask you how to get 1 bitcoin quickly.
I prefer to promote bitcoin in other ways. For example, by telling my friends that bitcoin is a good investment asset and I have also collected several bitcoin dollars.

Its just a piece of clothing so i personally don’t think you are putting yourself in risk lol, I once saw a kid in streets selling something wearing bitcoin tshirt (It was a nice tshirt NGL). Anyways wear whatever you feel comfortable wearing and whatever makes you feel comfortable and confident. I personally wouldn’t wear them because it looks cringe but you do you bro.

Yeah it's good to increase Bitcoin visibility and I like when someone promote Bitcoin to public, but I make sure it was not me. Cheesy

It's not worth to trade my life to increase Bitcoin adoption, just let it by nature, sooner or later when someone is already learn about financial and technology, they will realize if Bitcoin is important.

$5 wrench attack is what came to my mind when I see people that wears t-shirt that has bitcoin or any crypto printed on it.
While it's good that you're giving some help to market or give exposure to Bitcoin in public places.
But just as what's been asked to you if you own Bitcoin, that only gives the bad people the idea if you own one and you might be their next target.

If Bitcoin is well known in your country, it is not strange if you wear a T-shirt with Bitcoin on it.

I see it is kind of risk. When you wear a T-shirt with Bitcoin logo on it, you are saying with other people like I am a Bitcoin investor, I have bitcoin.

The question you received from that person is like a warning for you. You can become a target of bad people so if you don't want to have that risk, don't do something like this again.

Wearing Bitcoin clothes in public is a wrong move because it puts you at risk.this because a lot of persons including scammers and hackers will assume you are an investor of which in this case I believe they would be Right.
Losing ones hodlings is a nightmare worth avoiding therefore I think not wearing clothes that will draw attention is worth it. Here are a couple of post that would give you more insight on your privacy
Don't forget to keep your keys safe 😁

Not a good idea for me because you are just removing your privacy for having Bitcoin holdings and you might be target by scammer since they already have an idea that you are a holder.

Adding Bitcoin as mode of payment on my business is the best that I can do to promote Bitcoin in neighborhood since some people is already aware on it but not to the point that I will t-shirt and walk in the street that full of potential threat to my safety. I admire your courage for doing that.

What’s the initial feedback of people that saw your t-shirt print?
