i was talking to a banker at mit bitcoin expo and he was geniunely shocked when I told him that he doesn't own any bitcoin. people still think bitcoin in coinbase is bitcoin. we're so early.

Ngl thats kinda wild to me.
I was just talking to a friend about how if people have to click on a meme to see the whole thing uncropped, it doesn’t matter how good the meme is, it’s not gonna reach many people
I think it’s a decent metaphor for normies understanding Bitcoin
Effort is a dealbreaker 🥴
They'll have a very rude awakening
I talked to a guy at the same event who "works for a crypto exchange" who never heard of stamping a seed phrase into steel (it was unclear if he knew what a seed phrase was), and was shocked that I am not "a trader".
half the people at that thing were a joke. and the other half were extremely impressive.
yeah I talked to nostr:npub148jz5r9xujcjpqygk69yl4jqwjqmzgrqly26plktfjy8g4t7xaysj9xhgp about that. that tends to be the crowd there. sorry we didn't get to chat that much!
Mt Gox, Quadriga, Celsius and FTX…
it appears people still need to get REKT lol
Sounds about right.
Wait till he figures out that he does not own his digital profiles either
Both of you are correct, because your definitions of ownership are not the same. There are more people like him in the world than there are people like you, which is why Bitcoin growth is so slow. But, there are times when people rapidly recognize the difference, and adoption happens soon after
