I’ve been trying to slowly orange pill my friends and family for a while now. It’s so hard to really hammer it in. I hate being a lone Bitcoin maxi.

I managed to get one cousin, but trying to convey all the information, in in manageable pieces, without getting too technical even when you need to. Is damn hard.

Especially annoying when they bring up problems with the current system but dismiss the bitcoin solution you propose.

There's also this huge unwillingness to even take a look. It's either eye rolls, risk adverse tendencies or just lack of understanding. Then they end up shitcoiners (guilty of myself for a time) and either find their way back or give up on the whole thing.

All the time I've spent trying to understand bitcoin has been me trying to find its flaws, which a lot of times end up being not bugs but features.

I also fear many will not pursue this as hard as I have. They may have few other choices unfortunately.
