Bitcoin is simultaneously complex and simple. This is what most people actually struggle with, holding two conflicting ideas at the same time. To understand its simplicity one must also understand its complexity. Because without that framework, it is too good to be true.

To see Bitcoins simplicity you have to internalize that it’s a truly decentralized, military grade, self regulating network that doesn’t use time as we know it. Once you can see that it seems very simple. But there’s no way to explain that to someone with no frame of reference without sounding like a absolute crazy person 😅

Profound ideas just take a long time to permeate into society.

Slow and steady always wins the race 🤞🏼

Simple in idea

Complicated in execution

Perhaps as time goes on the execution part may become easier?

It’s possible but I don’t think the majority of users are willing to learn how the code works to be able to fully understand how the system works.
