I still see many bitcoiners that are clueless or frustrated, why bitcoin and NOSTR are not being adopted any quicker by society at large.
So I figured to share some of my observations on why this is the case.
One obvious, simple reason is that most people don't know about these technologies yet, it simply has not come on their radar. This can be solved over time, by natural incentives, education, role models, fear/doom marketing and memes that will make fun of the intensifying clown world pressure ea control system.
Another reason is a more psychological one: people naturally resistance of change. Technological big ideas like Bitcoin and NOSTR represents big systemic change that differ too much from what people are used to. The implications of accepting it as a solution requires openness. Some principles of freedom technology fundamentally attacks reality, the current world view, and their identity in such a way that it threatens their existence. Which makes it counter intuitive to start learning about it. That is why most people naturally resist it. Also, the Matrix has them and the ego is too big in some cases.
The solution for this is pain over a longer period of time. Also NGU and social pressure to join the networks.
Reason three is lack of personal growth. You have to be ripe for it to be able to embrace new concepts. This requires mostly to experience that change is needed. Time and consciousness to spread amongst peers will make it more accessible and acceptable.
There are many, more functional factors of course, like bad UX, addiction to the convenience of the current system, why people are asleep.
And lastly tbere a lack of a strong culture in society to make things like taking personal responsibility great again.
Just assuming that bitcoin and nostr will provide enough value to society by design is naieve IMO, but it will get adopted by the masses eventually.
My opinions are still evolving and maybe I am missing some massive factor, but still I thought it might be helpful to share my perspective.
What do you think? Was this valuable to you or crap?
