I wish I could convince my grandpa to sign up for cryonics, but he’s a 95 yo Indian doctor in India, where facilities for cryopreservation only extends to organs and eggs, so it’s moot regardless of the fact that I can’t convince him.
I expect my parents to survive to the Singularity, whether or not it kills us in the process. Same for me, and given my limited income, I’m not spending it on cryonics given that a hostile AGI will kill even the ones frozen away.
Cryonics is likely a very tough sell to the “close ones”.

You probably also irreversibly lose a ton of information with cryonics.
