Im sure we've all experienced the frustration of trying to explain cryptocurrency to a friend or loved one, only to be met with the bumper sticker retorts "its a scam, ponzi scheme etc". I've developed a fool proof method to change their minds and it'll only require 4 simple steps and/or 6 months of doing nothing.
Step one: Go to https://coinmarketcap.com/
Step two: Screenshot
Step three: Wait 6 months, then show said friend the before and after
Step four: Watch them drool and beg you to tell them how to get in on this
Or... find an old screenshot of the markets and do it all right now. The first version sounded cooler tho.
By the way this is my first post so excuse my shitty everything. Thanks :D
Hahhababa seems you have problem convincing your friend too. The problem i had is even i print those to them, they will say it is a bubble, end of conversation :(
I think the solution for that is to run him over with ur new car you just bought from your profits and ask if it feels like a bubble
works every time

Haha nice post. I actually gave someone $100 worth of BTC recently. I bet it's gone up a bit haha.
I actually do not try to convince friends. Consider what happens if the market tanks for 1-2 years directly after... Friends and money don't mix.
But of course I am happy to explain why I consider cryptocurrency an excellent idea.
well of course you have to convince them with a little disclaimer snuck in there lol
