My friends and family on my obsession with Bitcoin!

It has been nearly a year now and I have been consistently trading Bitcoin and various other Altcoins, I have put in most of my life savings into doing so, but due to my healthy returns I pay for nearly everything with my cryptocurrency.

I am not short of money, not entirely GOD is great and I'm doing pretty good I haven't had a job before, well nothing concrete to be honest, here and there I last a week or two. But now trading is a part of me and I just love watching charts and spend my time observing.

But anything I do or say hasnt gone down to well on my loved ones, infact even today with the value Bitcoin sits on right now they do not understand how rich I could have been if I only held on to the Bitcoins I had in 2013. So Everytime I'm around them they always constantly try to nag me on my obsession with Bitcoin and make silly jokes everytime I look at my phone saying "he is obsessed to cryptocurrency" and it's funny sometimes I laugh myself. Usually if one of your loved ones is on there phone you'll think they are speaking to someone or thinking of someone. But with me it's a little different, they KNOW I am fiddling with my coins looking for the next buy or cashing out some money to spend.

They even push to the extent to call me deluded and say it's all a fraud and I literally laugh out loud, and I am shocked because it's a billion dollar industry. I think to myself are these guys half asleep or what, there is so little people know about Bitcoin and it's potential. We are literally in the new world of technology and a new future of finance and people do not see the transition. Sooner or later everyone will be apart of it whether they want to be or not, and only then will they all acknowledge what I am doing today.

It's shocking but not too suprising since the people close to me think everything is a pyramid scheme or just a scam, but they don't now what they are missing out on is something's beautiful, new and full of life.

What's your story guys, how are the people around you treating your obsession to cryptocurrency?

Thanks for sharing @jawaida I have been mocked by everyone about my cyrpto obsession. I have come to realize that most people aren't ready for it yet. This tells me we are still at a very early stage with it all, even though so much has happened in the last 5 years. So I will keep preparing myself

Yes definitely early stages extremely early, but with recent ICO releasing about almost anything and everything I'm confident we are not far off, I'm 26 now but when I'm 36 I'm sure crypto will be filling the ears of grandads.

We will keep preparing together.

:)

Thanks for sharing! Well, people don't have 5 minutes to listen to me about cryptos or they don't want to listen because - they don't want to understand.

Tell me about it, well I'm glad you enjoyed the read abit of the truth is a good. Who has 5 minutes for our crypto talk eyy?

It wont be long before they suddenly start coming to you for advice.

You will take the high ground and welcome them to the crypto world because thats what we do!

I'm being asked advice already just not from those around me, they would tell others I do crypto and send them my way but call it scam themselves

If it makes you happy - why not!
