Pretend to be impressed and nod along for a second. "Oh wow, really?" They're not looking for people to agree with them, they're looking for people to be skept

Pretend to be impressed and nod along for a second. "Oh wow, really?"
They're not looking for people to agree with them, they're looking for people to be skeptical so they can engage in debate mode and prove that they're "in the know".
It's the same as when a stranger starts going off on anti-vax rant, quickest way to wind down the point and change the subject is to be all "wow, it's a crazy world out there".
- chinathrow 3y agoRight - but one dude comes back non stop and telling me it's not too late to invest and the usual nonsense about the value going up. I have nothing to add...
- codegeek 3y agoThen tell him "Man I would love to invest but I ain't got 60K+ for 1 bitcoin. Would you be willing to lend me some to buy since it's such a great investment and I will share profits with you" ? Hopefully that ends it.
- tromp 3y agoThat will not end it, but prompt the reply "you can buy bitcoin in much smaller quantities, like 1 milliBTC".
