- All those titles with yellow highlight and big pictures, shows like those scam sites with "work from home and earn a fortune as a mom".... Are screaming literally SCAM
- There's no such thing as "golden ticket" to "orangepill" in x minutes. That's a stupid myth. Don't go on that path. I am talking from my own experience for the last 10+ years onboarding normies into bitcoin.
- DO NOT "SALE" Bitcoin to normies, that's a total wrong approach. Bitcoin is not something you have to sale, is something you have to learn, you learn how to free yourself from fiat slavery, not to get rich in fiat.

Yes and all this talk about urgency and FOMO also makes this look really sketchy. Same stuff a scammer works with.
I don't want anyone FOMOing into bitcoin. They will most likely just burn themselves and blame bitcoin lol

Do scammers work with FOMO? Really?
FOMO happens every bull-market. Does that make Bitcoin a scam because people FOMO in at the top each time and get burned?
These are proven "sales tactics" that in the case of Bitcoin just happens to be true...
Bitcoin HAS absolute scarcity, which nothing else monetized does.
Bitcoin IS a once in a civilization early bird opportunity that will not last forever...
The list goes on...
Bitcoin is literally any salesperson's dream sales object, and this rabbit hole just captures and highlights all that for newbies to get an overview...
A headline that says "Buy Bitcoin or HFSP" with a wall of text underneath is hardly gonna convert anyone... :)

Any orange pilling attempt is a "sales process"... there is no way around that.
All "one-sitting" sales pages look "scammy", because that's the only way to grab and keep cold to lukewarm people's attention, and keep it long enough to convert them...
This is a tool for "instant" get-off-zero conversions...
They are incentivized to learn more once they're in (plenty of sub rabbit holes to explore on the page)...
Yes, and they learn enough from that page to make a decision in one sitting.
They get an overview of the whole "elephant", so to speak, instead of just the tail, trunk, or toenail...
May I ask if you actually took the time to read the whole thing? Cause it doesn't sound like it to me...
Thanks for the feedback though, and for fun I quote AI:
"AI, why do scammy looking sales page convert?"
AI:
Scammy looking sales pages can convert because they often employ persuasive tactics, such as fear of missing out (FOMO), urgency, limited-time offers, and perceived scarcity.
These tactics can be effective in motivating people to make a purchase. Additionally, some people may be more trusting of a sales page that looks amateurish or less polished, as it can appear more authentic and less “salesy”.

A bit more from AI:
Would a sales page for Bitcoin be a good idea?
Yes, a sales page for Bitcoin could be a good idea. Bitcoin has become increasingly popular in recent years and many people are interested in buying it. A sales page could be used to educate potential buyers on the advantages of owning Bitcoin, as well as provide a platform for them to purchase it. Additionally, a sales page could be used to promote any promotions or discounts related to buying Bitcoin.
Even if it "looks" scammy with FOMO, yellow highlighted text etc?
Yes, even if a sales page for Bitcoin looks scammy with FOMO, yellow highlighted text, etc., it could still be a good idea. As mentioned above, these persuasive tactics can be effective in motivating people to make a purchase. It is important, however, to make sure that the sales page is in compliance with any laws and regulations regarding financial transactions and cryptocurrency. The content should also be clear and accurate in order to avoid any potential legal issues.
