Goodmorning #nostr coffee off the front porch. It's not much but atleast I own somthing. We bought our place in 2020 right before shit really hit the fan...I can honestly say I am grateful to own what we do. The world continually gets darker and scarier with all the macro events in and out of #Bitcoin

Alot of people are going ti be left with nothing holding and empty bag. It's for these people i feel the most sorry for. It's hard to navigate the space especially when you don't understand the fist cash garbage in your wallet and bank.

It took me a year to grasp the concept and another 2 to really start getting on board with bitcoin. I can see how it's difficult for most people to get into the space.

With all that said how do you guys #Orangepill your family, friends, neighbors and fellow businesses? Especially in rural Boomer/Gen X America?

Let's brainstorm the best ways to reasonably introduce this concept to the uninitiated.

Best thing to do is just speak of it as an investment that you only put a little into (even if it's not true)

Remember crypto and blockchain has a very bad name in the mainstream and they have done some serious damage to blockchain adoption.

Saying this normal people see it as a highly volatile scam and will only adopt it when they are told to do so.

So by being low key but positive and saying it's only a very small part of your investment portfolio people will listen and possibly look into it more , when you come in hard people get their backs up and you could turn them off the whole concept until their bank or government tell them it's ok.

talk about the problems bitcoin solves 10 times before talking about bitcoin.

For example, did you hear about XXX (bank bail out, censorship, govt over reach)? Have a good convo about it and move on. Do not talk about bitcoin.

Then 10 times later mention that’s why you own bitcoin.

The problem needs to be compelling before every talking about the solution.

Exactly, everyone has been conditioned over the past 1000 years you won't just tell people that everything they have ever known and believed about the system is wrong you need to show them it's shortfalls and later give solutions.

Blockchain won't be adopted over night.

This is basically what I'm doing now, hard to get to people but it's a matter of time.

I definitlwy have a tendency to come off too hard. Eyes end up rolling into their heads and I just get frustrated. I'm working on inception bitcoin into conversations without actually saying #BUTCOIN kinda works
