I stopped that line of attack by responding

"No, it's still up from $625 a coin" ๐Ÿ˜‚

โ€œItโ€™s too expensiveโ€ is the most common one now amongst my friends. ๐Ÿ™„

Oh no, letโ€™s not go back to BIP 177 ๐Ÿ˜‚

๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ˜…

I actually show them a little side pot. Said I bought at ยฃ62k two months ago and itโ€™s now ยฃ78k, then I ask them if their fiat savings account did better? Sometimes works ๐Ÿ˜…

Nice ๐Ÿค™

Your response is WAY better.

... especially since my response proves entirely ineffective when they can never seem to remember our previous conversations.

My neighbour playfully ridiculed me back in 2017 when my coins had dropped from $4K to $2K, he hadn't remembered that I'd bought most of them at $625, but I didn't say anything back then.

These days we have a mutual neighbour who is in her late 70's. She is constantly fascinated by Bitcoin and asks me questions all the time.

He doesn't enjoy listening in.

I think it's only hubris that is preventing him buying now.

He's a nice guy and we get on well, but I tend to avoid discussing Bitcoin with him these days.
