In my opinion, every bitcoiner has a responsibility to educate his family, friends, colleagues.. about opting out of our fiat system through #Bitcoin in order to at least give them the opportunity to act

I’m pretty sure everyone does that. Not that easy.
Which is a good thing, like I said you want a slowish transition, if everyone woke up at the same time it would be chaos.
Tell that to the Filipinos you Fuckers!
Orange pilled 2 colleagues last week and they already bought some sats. 1 out of 5 is a big success for me. You’re right, it’s never easy, but never quit trying
Yeah, you educate, but none listen. Or if they do think it makes sense, they never take the step in actually acquiring any into self custody.
One colleague I orange pilled last week ordered already a hardware wallet and I’m gonna help him to set up his bit box. I also send him some podcasts, where he can learn all he needs to know. Take them on the hand the first steps and their interest and knowledge will grow.
I tried to get a friend to just buy something from me that he wanted using bitcoin. Told him I wasn't accepting dollars. He refused. Shame because, in dollars terms, I was giving him a killer deal. Didn't even take the 30 seconds to figure out the exchange rate.
Don’t try to convince someone, who has zero interest’s. Focus on people, who are angry about the high/growing inflation, high prices, devaluation of our money, thinking about a good store of value and so on. Than they start to say stuff like „what would this criminal ponzi scheme change, that is harmful for our environment?“. Than it’s your turn, to explain him, that he’s wrong with every point he has. In the end, let him download a soft wallet and send him some sats to see the process and you’re done. After that it’s up to him. Don’t waste more energy, but give him some time to think about it. #Bitcoin #plebchain
