Based on the “Three Generations Theory” we are 60-90years away from hyper Bitcoinisation.

However, education is the key to shortening this time horizon. If you haven’t already, it’s time to go to work my fellow Bitcoiners.

I’m on a mission to Orange Pill one person per week until I can get into schools next year and scale.

I am sure, you’ve all had a gut full of trying to Orange Pill your friends and family… I’ve stopped telling and started showing.

We don’t need to explain Bitcoin in detail all we need to do is:

1. Make it very clear that Bitcoin is NOT synonymous with crypto.

2. Explain that Bitcoin is divisible and to buy into Bitcoin a person does NOT need $40,000 AUD (approx price for 1 Bitcoin to invest.

3. Get your friend to download a wallet. I use Wallet of Satoshi (for its simplicity and because we are just getting this person interested and off zero). The I send them their first 100 Satoshi.

I also answer any questions/FUD they may have.

Job done. That is it. That is enough to make a person curious.

Now, go to work my friends. Who have you inspired curiosity in this week?

It can be disheartening if you are aiming to turn everyone into a bitcoin maxi with each interaction.

Each interaction with a normie has an impact & it takes many touches before people lean into it.

I tend to focus on the problem with fiat rather than the solution. I tend to prefer Phoenix wallet rather than WoS for onboarding (similar Ux but it's non custodial).

It's a one way path to bitcoin. Our action is accelerating the inevitable - everyone gets bitcoin at the price they deserve.

Not trying to make anyone an instant maxi, my only mission is to make them curious.

Thanks for the tip on Phoenix Wallet, I’ll check it out now. However, being non custodial I’m thinking a seed phrase will need to be recorded. This means I could not do what I did last night at the pub and tick of my 2nd Orange pilling for this week.

It doesn't force you to record your seed words but you'll need to record them if you want to back up your wallet (which is essentially a lite LN node). It will flash a reminder to record those words but not force you to (like some onchain hot wallets do).

With WoS you need to record an email to recover your account.

WoS has a built in point of sale feature & can also receive lightning sats via LN URL.

I like WoS but prefer to recommend Phoenix at the moment.

Keep spreading the good word of Satoshi 🤙🧡
