- Scam - When i first told my friends about crypto they ignored me and say its a scam
Funny thing is people can be quick to assume that something is a scam when it is not, and these people will easily fall for what is a scam later because of how the people behind scams always package it.
- Fear - since they thought crypto is a big scam, they fear they will just waste their time, and money investing and then wipeout after
There is always fear whenever you learn a new thing that can be of profit to you, overcoming this fear and not letting it affect your decisions is a responsibility of yours.
- lack of knowledge - since they don't have knowledge and they sometimes think it will be hard to learn, they loose interest in it, but in reality with lots of information over the web and with bitcointalk its really easy to learn something about crypto
If you loose interest in trying to learn about bitcoins because you think it is too difficult for you to learn, you have on your own put a limit to yourself and you will certainly regret it.
