Everyone wants rules.

This is why so many people blindly followed what the authorities said, even if it didn't make any sense. There's comfort in having rules. Comfort in thinking you are being told the truth.

Trust was what was abused and until people recognize their own exploitation, they won't wake up to the lies they've been told.

COVID has made me much less hopeful for the roughly half of the population that just gave in. These are all rule-followers that want order, even at the cost of reality distortion.

On the other hand, for the other half of the population that didn't give in, there is a lot of hope. These are people that I think are destined to adopt Bitcoin.
