I've been driving my family and close friends absolutely crazy
For the last +4 years, I have been driving my family and close friends absolutely crazy talking about #Bitcoin, #Blockchain, #Cryptocurrency and nearly 2 years about #Steemit and #Steem.
Even now, after +4 years, most of them still don't get it.
Despite the hours of conversations we have had, most of them simply will not believe what I am trying to get across and I can only think that it is because they had not heard or read about from a source that they feel is reliable and one that they can relate too.
A few weeks ago my brother emailed me a link to an article on the Manchester Evening News Website about how Coffee Shops and Bars in Manchester are turning to #Bitcoin and #Cryptocurrencies for payment.
Strangely enough, over the weekend my parents handed me the hard copy that they had saved, taken out of the newspaper to read.
As my parents handed me the copy, both of them said "....is this what you have being banging on about?"
Hallelujah
Hallelujah..!!
After +4 years, I have finally broken through and the message is slowly getting across.
Though they still don't fully understand it, the sheer fact that it was written in the Manchester Evening News in black and white is a start, as the article allowed us to talk about a little further.
It is a great article written by Emily Heward and full credit to Emily and the Manchester Evening News for the content.

Once again, this is a great article and credit to Emily Heward and the Manchester Evening News for the content.
Contacting Emily Heward to promote #Steemit and #Steem
Over the next few days I will try and contact Emily to see if she would be interested in writing an article about #Steemit and #Steem and I will keep you posted on how I get on.
This would be a great #Promo-Steem initiative and I would recommend others reaching out to their local newspaper reporters to see if others would be interested in publishing more article on #Steemit and #Steem.
Thanks again for reading.

No doubt that everyone in the market are well aware of cryptocurrency...In fact you can see most of the place the advertisements of cryptocurrency tokens. Day by day innovative platform are developing in the blockchain market which is facilitating in most of the field such as health,investments,financing,education,marketng,bussiness and games etc.
Now a days most of the big companies has started accepting cryptocurrency as payment which has made people lives more easier and convenient where they don't have to pay extra charges and abide unnecessary rules.

Haha I know just what you mean, it's really hars to make other people understand about blockchain and cryptocurrencies... It might take years and years of talking about the same things to make that information stay in their heads, LOL.

that punchline is mind blowing.... I wish people would understand that crypto is the guy and not cash. I would love to read the next article. Nice job. Keep Steemit moving
I know what you mean @stephenkendal
it's really losing to understand other people about blockkain and cryptocouring
This information can take years and years about the same things to keep them heady.
A combination of both cash, coins, visa, and crypto are needed. If crypto replaces cash, then your holdings can be stolen or frozen, yet if you have cash, this is the most private form of payment, even more so than any crypto. Lets not rush to put all of our eggs into one basket- a variety of payment methods is neccesary if one system fails, we have others to rely upon.
Yes!. Yes!! Yes!!!. It is getting better. The awareness is coming thick and large. Many people are becoming increasingly aware even though they still don't understand it. Many are taking a cautious approach due to past experiences in ponzi and the rest, so they might be a not reluctant. With the wave going on around, I won't be surprised to see them join soon.
Keep doing what you are doing sir. You are indeed a bright light and a huge advocate for Cryptocurrencies, particularly Steemit. Keep the flag high, I am always in your support sir.
coffee is my favorite.
The awareness has been set in motion. It is only a matter of time before people who have kicked against it start engraving it. Thank you for your consistency and huge help
