Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
⭐ Merited by d_eddie (1)
From 2014 almost up till the 2017 run-up, I offered to give one BTC to any one of my friends who bought one themselves and promised to hold it for 5 years, and not a single one of them took me up on my offer. I would stand up at the weekly open mic night and not do comedy but try and orange-pill others... not a single one listened.
I did, however, have not one but 2 of them call me last year and tell me that they were ready to buy, and how do I give them their free one?? I made that offer at roughly a 250.00 spot price and they had the nerve to ask me for 44,000 (currently 111k) it was at that point that I finally just realized we truly do get them cornz at the price we deserve
The best part is now they blame me for not trying hard enough to get them onboarded.
I will never understand the normies

That approach doesn't work. Nobody buys if you try to convince them. Tried it with a family member at 170$, no chance!
They come on their own when they see your success... humans are a greedy jealous bunch of mofo's
that's the only way I have seen it work... when they came I was there for them answering their questions (surely not giving them coins though
). Of course you never get anything in return... it's community work
In some cases, they don't even come around when all of the following conditions apply. This actually happened to me recently. I bought last year somewhere slightly over $50k. They:
1) Have seen your success, know the multiplier for your last purchase cause you've told them I bought $x of coin yesterday (they know x too).
2) Have ample availability of cash plus other liquid assets that could be cornverted <--- (see what I did here?)
3) Have all the technical skills to execute the trade themselves. Know how to sign up, transfer money etc.
4) Know a good deal about finance and banking. Know how to compute mortgage installments, for example. THIS may be the dealbreaker. Maybe too deep in tradfi to see bitcoin for what it is?
TL;DR Nocoiners will nocoin. No use wasting energy over them. The age of evangelism is over IMHO.
That's right. Not everybody will come and ask.
However that's exactly my barrier I put up before I even talk to them about dee cornz.
And also I never tell them to buy. Rather the opposite. I tell them who hard and painful it is to hodl through bear markets etc. I tell them they should view the invested money as lost. lol
Almost everyone accepts the challenge.
Maybe if it sounds too good to be true people won't believe it..?
