Lesson Learned. Gonna stop wasting my energy trying to convince people outside of crypto...

Attempted to share the excitement that is Bitcoin to my best friend. I think I came off too strong. I told her to maybe consider it as I would hate for her to miss out on potentially one of the biggest financial/investing opportunities in recent history. I just got so excited that bitcoin reached it's all time high. Lesson learned... don't try to convince someone outside of the world of crypto to look into crypto. Kinda sad that she can't see the good in it right now. But what can you do?

To give context, my friend had a very very bad first experience with cryptocurrency. I don't know the full story, but she dealt with a shady 3rd party trader who promised to give her profit. Well she did end up getting a profit but she also got flooded with texts and calls trying to scam her everyday. So after all that shit, she pulled her money out and never looked back at cryptocurrency since. It's sad because it seems like she was just looking at it to make a quick buck, which isn't a good mindset considering that cryptocurrency requires a good span of time before it can become more wide adopted and thus profitable. You can't expect it in days, weeks, months, or even years. There's always volatility but the long term directions seems to be upward which gives me hope for bitcoin.
