Is it wrong for me to try and help my friends get into Crypto even though most of them are completely ignorant and refuse my advice.

How will all the Naysayers feel when we are proven right. Do you think they will envy us. Should all of us early Crypto investors stick together and form our own enclave. What should we do when we make it

Sadly most people are to ignorant and will only learn once it's to late.

My friends are as usual looking at this and thinking it's a waste thanks to the media and other stuff. So they think hey he's a dumbass looking to lose his money. Now I just go yup I most likely will and if I do so be it. I have money in other investments they arent aware of. I wanted to help but they refuse to even put $10 into bitcoin so fuck it they can deal with it if proven wrong.

That's even what broke me wanting to bother convincing them to get in on it or put just a bit aside.

I have 2 friends I talk with about crypto alot. One as mentioned refuses to put even 10$ in so I wrote him off cuz he'll drop money on dumb ass shit but wont invest in his future.

The second wont invest because his wife wont let him since she thinks they have far more important things to put money into. Yeah I had convinced him get in on it and his wife nixed it cuz that's a waste of money. Even tho he knows i'm right or is fairly sure i'm right he let his wife nix the investments cuz she said so.


Wrote them both off and now just update them here and there but dont care what they think. Some people just dont want to take risks and while I don't blame them I have a mindset of no risk no reward.

If you were an "early crypto investor" you would have already made it.

sure, investors in the past year aren't early across the history of crypto so far but are still early in the grand scheme of things.

crypto isn't used for anything yet, but when coins start showing real value or are tied to commodities like bandwidth then they will really explode. There's an estimated $32 trillion held offshore across the world, and we've seen governments recently start cracking down (for example panama papers). When they see some more mature cryptos it will be seen as another avenue to store this immeasurable wealth.

this asset class has a long way to go

not just your friends, nobody. not your family, not strangers, and most importantly not your girl. it's all fun if you say "hah, i put 100$ into BTC" but as soon as they know you have hundrets of thousands in crypto currencies, everything changes.

>> No.9224619

normies are poor bitter fucking losers and deserve the miserable lives they lead. not even trying to be edgy, i tried for a long time to help people but they just resent you for it.

fuck em all, take care of yourself and if your lucky enough to meet some real friends let them join you on the way

it's called double spacing and has been called double spacing for decades longer than plebbit has been around. I would suggest the kys retort like you but nah you can learn from this.

And crypto is not exactly a secret anon so drop that stupid act right now.

Hey look i'm double spacing again while talking about crypto I do hope you're triggered by this like a weak lil plebbit boy would be.

Another pathetic uneducated underage talking about plebbit and thinking I care about his personal opinions for his life on how crypto is handled. Thanks for that anon you made my day

Anon, I only got back in a year ago. One more bull run (easily this year from Goldman etc pumping it before they dump on normie 401ks etc) and I'm able to retire. So fuck the "early adopter" meme - it's a load of shit. This is like 1996 in the Internet boom - yeah it's not the beginning but hakf the economy isn't running on it, most projects are beta stage at best and it's tiny compared to other markets.

And no, I don't tell anyone to buy anymore, I don't need the grief. I mentioned that I'd bought Ripple at 20c and sold at $3 to my Father in law. Dumb boomer fuck runs straight off and market buys at the top of the ATH. Never again.

Go back. You're obvious as fuck basedboy.

>>9224434

Yeah, truth. Holy fuck the "I'll give you my money" one gets me. I'm not a fucking bank, I don't want that responsibility. I take huge gambles that pay off, but I know how to bet smart. But I can't try to explain how to do that (not to a normie anyway), or if I fuck up just go "Yeah, 10k down. All good, next pump we'll drop the bags and grab something else" and think they aren't going to shit themselves.

These are exactly what most people who hold lots of crypto would tell you too. Stop being a retard, and don’t assume other people’s holdings from what they tell you. I would say something very similar if you would ask me. Wife doesn’t want us to invest, what is btc, isn’t crypto a scam, stuff like that.
Don’t be that guy who has his cards in the open.

Don’t do that. Just go about your business and if someone asks, say your investments went well. Be secretly smug if you must
