Bitcoin Pressure

[Doe Be Doe]

I do not trade Bitcoin.

I have met several guys on dating apps that are interesting to chat with but they eventually direct the conversation toward Bitcoin and pressure me to install Coinbase and trade Bitcoin. I am not sure how my trading Bitcoin is a scam on their part since I don't see how they'd get anything out of it. 

Has anyone else been pressured to install Bitcoin? Any thoughts on why these guys want me to trade Bitcoin so much?

Thanks.

Crypto Bros are the worst...  Some could be just pushy assholes who don't know proper manner.  Others might be working a referral angle.  Do they suggest a specific app? 

Either way, discussing money management especially unsolicited is a red flag for dating apps. Relationships are a different story, but even that, it should be only talked about way way way down the road.

@Doe Be Doe, they might be trying to get referral fee income or lead you into somehow buying advisory services. There's an escort who gives a discount to clients who pay using crypto (not a red flag to me) and states in his ad that he will be happy to answer any questions (or something to that effect). That is a red flag because he is a stranger, and it feels like a potential scam.

It's a scam.  Run away.
