Well, I have started making some few cash from this and really will like those around me to partake. But people around have been put down because of ponzi and when bitcoin is being talked about all they see is Ponzi! How does one really get to re-orientate?
You don't need to convince them directly as many people who are very less knowledgeable about Bitcoin will not easily be influenced by it. First of all, you should show them some proofs of others earnings and also your own earnings. Then show them the price chart of the Bitcoin to influence them a little more about the legitimacy of the Bitcoin. After that you should show them the Bitcoin sellers to make them understand how much potential it has. You should be as real to them as possible, but if you emotionally tell them that they can make a lot of money then they will most probably find it as Ponzi. Show them the reality, if they're little bit intelligent they will know the rest.
