How to Talk to Your Boyfriend About Bitcoin (Without Sounding Crazy)
So you’ve been stacking sats, you’ve read the headlines, and you’ve moved your coins into cold storage like a grown-up. But every time you bring up Bitcoin to your boyfriend, he either zones out or jokes about Dogecoin.
Let’s fix that.
Here’s how to talk to your man about Bitcoin without sounding like you joined a cult—or worse, Twitter finance.
1. Don’t Start With “The System Is Broken”
Even if it is.
If your opening line sounds like a Netflix doc, he’s already tuning out.
Instead, meet him where he’s at:
- If he’s into stocks: “Bitcoin outperformed the S&P again this year. You still holding Tesla?”
- If he loves tech: “Bitcoin’s code hasn’t changed in years and still runs perfectly. That’s kind of amazing.”
- If he’s broke: “You can start with $20. It’s about protecting value, not getting rich overnight.”
2. Use Real Numbers, Not Memes
You’re not trying to convert him into a maxi. You’re trying to show him the math.
Here are some 2025 receipts:
- Bitcoin is up over 100% year-to-date (CoinDesk)
- Over 60% of supply hasn’t moved in a year—aka diamond hands, not gamblers (Glassnode)
- BlackRock, Fidelity, and Bank of America all hold Bitcoin exposure
The goal? Show him Bitcoin isn’t fringe—it’s financial evolution.
3. Don’t Say “Fiat Is a Scam”
Even if it is.
Just ask questions:
- “Isn’t it weird that banks can freeze your account, but you can’t freeze theirs?”
- “If inflation is 4%, why does everything feel 40% more expensive?”
- “Wouldn’t you want to own something they can’t print more of?”
Let him come to the “aha” moment. You’re planting seeds, not launching a TED Talk.
4. Talk About Ownership, Not Price
He might ask: “Isn’t it too late to buy?”
You say: “It’s not about the price. It’s about the control.”
Make it about:
- Sovereignty
- Self-custody
- Privacy
- Freedom from third parties
You’re not just holding Bitcoin. You’re holding leverage over your future.
5. Don’t Be Annoying About It
Please. For the love of Satoshi.
Don’t send him TikToks every day. Don’t quote Michael Saylor at dinner. Don’t say “have fun staying poor” when he forgets to Venmo you back.
Be chill. Be strategic. Be the reason he finally downloaded Strike.
Final Thoughts
Talking to your boyfriend about Bitcoin doesn’t have to be cringe.
Skip the buzzwords. Skip the drama. Focus on facts, freedom, and flexing that you were early.
Because let’s be real:
If he can explain fantasy football, he can understand a fixed supply asset.
