21 sats \ 4 replies \ @SimpleStacker 24 Oct \ parent \ on: Being a HODLER sucks. it's not what people think it is bitcoin
I should add, a very important tactic is to move the conversation away from “price”, “investment”, or “returns”. Focus on the what and the why of bitcoin and don’t let them move the conversation into a way to make money
See that's the kicker. That's what a lot (most?) people are interested in though.
Or they ask ok 'how much is one' and they think they have to buy a whole one.
They are much less open to the idea of buying or acquiring 'sats'. Sats at any price, acquired with a long term horizion, especially at regular intervals makes the most sense but it's very hard to get people 'there'..
I have had very limited success, and this is with smart, educated people.

I have no time to talk to such small minded people, doesn’t matter how “smart” or “educated” they are.

I, too, am puzzled by the fact people are not interested in stacking sats.
I have a friend who I explained Bitcoin to over a year ago and he's still only interested in trading it or investing for a quick gain.
Since the time I introduced him to Bitcoin, the fiat price has increased by 2.5x, and yet he hasn't stacked a single sat or done anything at all related to bitcoin.
I don't know what's on his mind.

i've run into similar situations
