106 sats \ 1 reply \ @optimism 19h \ parent \ on: 5 years of nudging my no-coiner friend bitcoin
If a friend asks me if they should buy bitcoin I just tell them no. Because if you have to ask then you didn't do research and I'm not about to take the liability to the dollar signs in their eyes.
Instead I just orange pill people by settling drink money in sats.

Same. For younger folks, I also find this is more persuasive than telling them what to do.
I did this with my younger brother-in-law recently. After I dissuaded him of whatever FUD he'd encountered and more. He asked, "should I buy bitcoin then?" I said "no, do research and decide for yourself." His body language was a mixture of relief and increased interest.
