You don't have to show people the amount of Bitcoin you have just to convince them to invest bitcoin or love bitcoin. Even if you show the person you are teaching about bitcoin your accumulation it may not change anything if he does not have understanding of bitcoin but just want to have bitcoin to have generate quick money. What every beginners needs to know about Bitcoin is to understand the market, the volatility,  which will take the mentality of making money from bitcoin fast. Showing beginners the amount of Bitcoin you have accumulated they will just assume you made all the money you have in life from bitcoin.

No, it was not wise at all. It’s one thing to share how much you earn at your job and it’s another to share your details of your crypto portfolio. Anyone can have a good idea of your job salary if they know your role in the company but what you do with your salary is your personal business. You took a big security risk telling someone (an estranged friend) about your bitcoin hodlings. There are better ways to share your Bitcoin knowledge to others for example Bitcoin price history is a good selling point.

​First of all, it's great for you to have such an old friend again.in my opinion the best thing to do is to let your friends, relatives and close people know about Bitcoin. Showing someone your assets or bitcoins is not right in my opinion. You must tell your friends or relatives about Bitcoin and how much profit we can get in the future by investing in it, but one should never flaunt their assets.

Tell them about the profit or gain from Bitcoin to guide them. However, you may have shown him your bitcoins to pique his interest. I often tell my friends about my full wallet assets myself, but often do it on impulse even though I don't think it's right.There are many other ways to interest others without necessarily showing them the bitcoins we have.

When you show your wallet to someone, it means you have compromised your privacy. It doesn't matter if he is your friend or a relative. You know about your friend, but we don't know if he deserves to see your wallet. It isn't necessary to show your personal wallet when you are trying to convince someone to invest in Bitcoin. I advise you to always protect your privacy and be careful. We can trust our friends, but privacy is a matter. However, it is good to see you convince your friend to buy Bitcoin with the DCA strategy, which is a good strategy. Keep up this good work by always protecting your privacy.

This is like showing your bank account balance to someone. Are you comfortable with that? if you are then no problem.
Well, he's got the idea now that he's got more money than you so I guess that's fine for him but it won't be enough if he gets interested.
Because whether you show it to him or not, if he's truly interested he'd do his own research about btc.

that is exactly true. with the current technology these days, basically everyone can do their own further research if they want to explore things. we don't know the absolute truth about the OP's story, but if that was indeed true, then, yes, he got his friend's interest into this market. but do remember that he should advise him about the risks involved in getting into this market.

there's nothing wrong showing someone else's your wallet. but do you really think that is a smart move? i am not comfortable on that kind of situation. but as a holder, much better to be discreet with your dealings here. you'll never know potential risks that you are getting into up until you are in the terrible situation of losing your funds.

do remind yourself that you don't need to convince anyone to be on this market. they can get involve here, but it should be voluntary. they won't hold anything against you whatever may happen to their assets.

In my opinion, it is not the right behaviour not to pay attention to the privacy of your wallet. In the market, such behaviour is often seen as a mistake. Of course, there may be people we trust, but we need to be completely sure. The way to convince your friend is not to show him your wallet, but to give him information about the subject he is curious about.

In some cases, showing your wallet can be more effective, i.e. you can influence the other person and encourage them to find out more about what they want to do, but this is a risky move.

It's good to tell someone about Bitcoin and convince them to invest in it. You are guiding someone in your circle to the right investment vehicle. And don't forget to mention the risks of the market.

It is good to have this way if those family of yours and relatives or close friends are open minded type of person or people which it is unlike to my family and friends that they are really that skeptical on things that are found online. They are really just that sticking into those traditional stuffs and things on which they do really believe into it and wont really welcoming any new ideas or things that does exist.This is the main reason on why i had stopped on trying out to introduce Bitcoin or crypto into other people and would really be just focusing onto the things on what im doing here on crypto space rather than on sharing it up into those people who doesnt really even want to hear off about those sentiments. Even if you do speak about some money earning opportunity but still they would be having those doubts.

Well, there are people who are open minded and does welcome new ideas or things on which it would really be that somewhat interesting in making out some explaination into those people
who are really willing or interested to heard of but if its not or totally opposite then it would be better that they should really remain still and sit up and miss out those good opportunities.
Dont try out to speak or reach to me on the time that the market will really be that evident or something that makes up some noise.

This not a big deal, if I  will create threads to all the people I have introduced Bitcoin to, it will full 20 pages article because they re many but I don't have to to write threads on that. Because that is not an achievement. And also before you introduce Bitcoin to someone you have to know the two major risk involved now. Tell the person the high transaction fee and also the volatile nature of Bitcoin so that when the person comes to the field and anything happens he would know that you have told him before so you would not be blame again in any downfall of the person.
