 We all have that one friend, who has been obsessed with cryptocurrencies from the get-go. Remember him? He was posting stuff about Bitcoin on facebook when you still had to look up what that even meant. Today, everyone seems to know something about the cryptocurrencies. It has made its way into the normal news cycle and you hear your parents talk about it - but then there are still those people who take it just a bit further. Here’s how to spot them: They will constantly try to make you a believer - that’s really what money is all about, isn’t it? Enough people have to believe in its value for it to actually have value. So their logic is really unbeatable - if they get you to believe in bitcoin, that’s one more person won on the way to world dominion. You order pizza, they tell you how much better it would be if you could do it with bitcoin - it oscillates between being incredibly annoying and very funny. It all depends on the level of alcohol involved. Or perhaps you have it all wrong and life would REALLY be more fun if all currency was cryptocurrency. They might call you in the middle of the night: the price has dropped, the price has dropped! Bitcoin is notorious in its price swings and it drives fans nuts on a regular basis. Forget intense sports fans, who won’t leave their bed after their favourite team has lost. There is nothing worse than a Bitcoin believer whose baby has lost in value (yet again). Haven’t seen them on facebook, twitter or instagram lately? Well, try /r/bitcoin or bitcointalk.org. It’s where their kin congregates, and really what’s more thrilling than chatting with people who love the same thing as you? Don’t even try to remove them from their bubble. Maybe they’ll come up for air sooner or later, if you’re lucky. Have they told you lately that you are a spoilsport? Well, that might be because of your lack of enthusiasm about their favourite topic. How dare you roll your eyes whenever they bring it up? Or act all indifferent when they can just tell that you are just holding back? After all, it is unimaginable that you are not at least as crazy about their favourite pastime as they are!  Surely, you also don’t mind if they interrupt other people’s conversations to correct them when they’ve been inaccurate about bitcoin. The world just has to be better educated about it - that will make everyone love bitcoin! Please know that you are not alone - we all have that one friend. And if we are really lucky, not just one. Listen closely to them, they might be onto something. Who knows where the cryptocurrency journey will lead, but do you really want to give your friend the ammunition to be able to say “I told you so!”? I didn’t think so. So step up your game and see for yourself what’s behind cryptocurrencies and whether you want to get involved, rather than just being annoyed by your friend!
