Same Here Buddy !
When I hear about crypto and blockchain, I told my friend that it would the next big thing but they make fun of it, that it is virtual thing, its gambling, govt. not supporting it. But know that came to me and ask
Hey, I wanna learn about crypto trading and investing, Guide me....
First they reject, when they know its potential then they start learning it...
First they reject then they learn about bitcoin and got scammed by doubler website

, just joking

It's not rare to see people who underestimate about something that they just heard, they need proof to convince their self if bitcoin is really legit or not. but when they missed the train they hope to go back in time so didn't miss any investment opportunity.
