Deep understanding is what's required for real conviction. That does not come from a sexy demo. I've never seen anyone see a fast transaction, even across continents and become a holder through bear markets.

It takes years to develop conviction and no killer app, no amazing utility, no endorsement is going to shortcut that process.

If you want to orange pill someone, help them really understand money and develop that conviction. One holder is worth a hundred traders is worth a thousand merchants that sell right away.

Right on Jimmy.

Show by example, start local, the most local change you can do is change yourself. No grandiosity in that, humble and honest change for the best and people will boluntary adopt it if they see fit. The rest depends on time.

Sure, but watching a fast transaction over borders without middlemen or fees can be wondrous enough to get people to even pay attention and take you seriously. For someone to take the necessary deep dive they have to get interested first.

Is there a way to send Bitcoin that is in cold storage through lightining network and receive in dollars into a non custodial wallet? can i do this without registering anywhere? TIA

that is, no KYC

We can start with finding friends and relatives with low time preference and introduce them to #Bitcoin. It's much easier to find such people than try to change someone's time preference.
