I often read lists of tips and other best practices in the Bitcoin world, but i thought it would be interesting to share the worst Bitcoin advice you may have received throughout your adventure in this incredible monetary revolution.
Aha!!! Now this reminds me of my early days when getting involved in Bitcoin. Although none of my family members and relatives have made a comment about me getting involved to BTC back then, but I got the worse advice coming from a “mentor” of a team that I belong back then in the network marketing world.
He just said that BTC is a ponzi scam as there are a lot who were scammed of that coin and advice me to stop getting involved in Bitcoin. I know that he is misinformed about Bitcoin, so I choose to stick with it as I don’t have much results as a network marketer before.
Yes he is earning millions in Philippine pesos every month, but I don’t care because he personally doesn’t help me grow anyway, so I have to change direction as I realized that this is not my true calling. So yeah, I’ve got no respect to his character and attitude despite earning millions.
In my early days as I keep sharing about BTC and cryptocurrencies, that “mentor” unfriended me (but his wife didn’t until now). And worst thing of all, he spreads the word to his co-mentors and their respective teams that I am now promoting Bitcoin and should avoid getting connected with me. And yes, I’ve experienced getting lots of unfriends and my reputation to them was no longer good because of misunderstooding the basics of Bitcoin.
They started to ignore me, so it was a great test to be honest. However, as the old saying goes, “Whenever a door closes, another one opens”. I’ve opened that new door and made even more friends than before. Not just a new breed of friends here in the Philippines, but overseas as well. As I kept my faith on Bitcoin and cryptocurrency and the value grew so many folds, I was blessed and thankful that I got the results that I’ve wanted.
I paid my debts, treating my family, traveling a lot within the Philippines and a few countries, becoming a crypto keynote speaker, part of the crypto companies as ambassador and now enjoying my career as a crypto Youtuber while under the COVID-19 pandemic.
Now those people who have bullied, doubted and criticized me before about BTC, are either just being silent or eating their own words, or some have started to jump on board and getting some guidance from me.
