I'm a developer and crypto believer. I have been spending time on the Bitcointalk forum lately, and I want to make some good friends here.

All of my close circle friends consider crypto as scams, and I cannot convince them at all. They all bought some meme coins and lost, or have heard stories of people getting wrecked on NFT coins, so they blame Bitcoin for all the scams. When I argue, "Why don't you buy Bitcoin?" they say it's not profitable. When I counter back with, "If you had bought $6k BTC last year, it would now be around $10k instead you chose some meme coin that online gurus talk about, and now you blame Bitcoin," they still don’t listen. Nowadays, I’ve started to lose friends over these arguments, and I'm not good online Instagram or Discord either.

There are lots of crypto scams, but bitcoin is what they should invest in.  I had lunch with two friends who are also developers in March of 2013 (and 2011 and 2012) and urged them to check it out.  I'm still friends with them even though they didn't listen.  Oh well, everyone has to decide things for themselves.
