I never invite friends or advise friends, including close friends, about Bitcoin, in fact, if someone asks about investment, I direct them to gold and I also advise them to read for themselves about Bitcoin on the internet. After they understand a little, I teach them from the start, my reason is simple. I don't know how to explain Bitcoin to lay people who have never heard of Bitcoin.
Even if I want to teach my friends about Bitcoin, I will make them curious and create curiosity. The easy way to explain it is with real things, buying a car, house, etc. from bitcoin profits. The problem is that people now still see the results that we explain, if there are no results, no one will believe them. This is what happens in my area, because many people are still unfamiliar with Bitcoin.
They say knowledge is power, some information are dangerous to a common man which is why not every information is shared. But in this case the only way to beat the matrix is by being informed and learning, I don’t think a person who has access to the internet has not heard the term Bitcoin, cause bitcoin is recently the most talked about topic on the internet. So they may have heard about it but just ignorant or the stress of doing their own research may hinder their effort of learning about the space. We have some people who prefer to put their money in business where they can be seeing their money, they see Bitcoin as being an audio money and some Ponzi schemes that is why they don’t want to involve in it. But then all this are just mere speculation surrounding the actual facts about bitcoin. Just like you said people love to see results and proof that this is actually a goal getter. These set of people also end up regretting why they didn’t take their chances when they had the opportunity When they eventually see the result attached to bitcoin, some will even go further to become desperate to own bitcoin without getting proper coaching on the space.
It is important people get enlightened about this concept, I acknowledge the effort CZ and the entire Binance team with some couple of other good crypto gurus in the space that go out enlightening the masses about the importance of the space. This is something we should emulate in our own little way, enlighten the minds of those who are willing to learn about the space. Give them some channels and site they can go and learn on their own by so doing you are impacting a very crucial piece of information to the person, it now left for the person to make use of the information he/she has got. They are some information that can change our life if only we know about them. Bitcoin is a very good example of that information and if properly understood and applied will see a complete turnover in your life.
