I feel crazy. I believe Bitcoin is inevitable and the best invention humans have ever created. I want to shout it from the roof tops. Unfortunately, it feels like no one else really understands it or will even put in the time to try to educate themselves about it.
I understand that many people don’t have enough time to study it or perhaps they don’t have the finances to buy some sats.
I just wish I could find a way to explain bitcoin to others that didn’t immediately have them dismissing it as too complicated or being late to the party. I also know that I don’t want to give them financial advice. Truthfully, I just want to take “The Bitcoin Standard” and shove it in their face.

I don’t really care. Most people still doubt it and shows how early it is still.

You can find ways to 'explain bitcoin', but there are thousands of ways of looking at it. So you have to come up with different talking points, and even then most people are not really interested.
Bitcoin is an attack on the way the current (financial) world works, and at the same time can be seen as a liberating tool for everyone. Can you see why some people don't even want to entertain that thought?
Bitcoin can enable more free (financial) transactions. That is a positive for me, but others might see it as dangerous.
Bitcoin creates new power structures. That can be seen as negative or positive.

Their misunderstanding is our opportunity. Be grateful you’re one of the early ones to get it. The rest will come around eventually.

$2 Trillion market cap and you think people haven't realized it yet? Maybe not the majority of folks, but smart money has certainly taken notice of it.
Follow the smart money.
Stay humble. Stack sats.

Bitcoin is a solution to a problem they don't know exist. Stop talking about bitcoin. Start talking about inflation. Don't even mention btc. Just keep ranting about inflation till people realize how fucked we are. Then introduce the solution.

Move away from the best invention nonsense, you will sound delusional by most. Even other Bitcoiners. It's a great invention, a necessary one too. But in a world where antibiotics, the printing press, modern agriculture, space flight, microscopes, organ transplantation etc. exist... don't be weird. Just enjoy your Bitcoin.

I don’t think it’s the best invention ever created, as fascinated as I am by it. I think it’s just something the world REALLY needs! If only government that controls our lives had the common sense or decency for that matter to implement something like this, we would not have to live this sort of ‘alternative’ lifestyle

Why is this your problem? If they want you to explain what it is, you can. If they don't want to buy, why bother?
Or why even engage in such a conversation?
