update:
he stopped the digging because he thinks Bitcoin is a threat to government and it won't make it, there's no way to cash/fiat out even if he accumulates a lot of sats because of EU government is trying hard to KYC all Bitcoin transactions and for that he's pessimistic about the whole story.
what would you say if you were me? #asknostr

Permission free p2p exchanges fix this, e.g. Robosats and Bisq
yeah that's my very point and i even show him my history of buying on Robosats. but still not convincing, but I'll keep showing๐๐ผ
Buy fiat if you need to but Bitcoin IS the exit
send him a little bit, get him using it, get him to send it around
suggest he buy a small amount
so its no longer theoretical and just empty talk
actions > words
yeah man. he actually bought some sats on a KYC exchange. i offered him a LN payment by double the fiat he spent for my lunch, intending to show him the lightning. got rejected๐
that's ok
very few of us get it on initial contact it takes a few encounters. if he's done a little bit of investigation it will sit with him and gnaw at him each time he sees something messed up like the next big print by central banks when head into a crunch
โThatโs what everyone with 10s of hours of research has said for the past 16 years.โ
another interesting perspective
He should go back to field 0 and start listening to Lex Friedman's podcast with Michael Saylor and then read Bitcoin Standard. Hey might go down the rabbit hole again ๐
Sidenote: Take this chance and reclaim your jade! ๐
hahaha I'm still believing him! hope he's gonna use the Jade one day
