I believe Bitcoin and nostr self select more based on open mindedness than intelligence.
Like you don't have to be a 2000 IQ cryptographer and economist to believe in Bitcoin you just have to be open to the idea that MAYBE pieces of paper aren't valuable and another system MIGHT be better
I think open mindedness comes from curiousity. Too many lack that inhibition. In an information age, curiousity of ideas is the modern day equivalent of venturing out of the cave.
I mean there’s probably a base level of intelligence required at the moment. Kind of like the early internet. There’s a base level of intelligence required to set everything up or to understand what money is.
Ego test. Not IQ test.
Yes, I think it’s more an inverted bell curve here
Some would even call THAT intelligence — as opposed to IQ :)
