I was on the phone yesterday with my friend over at nostr:npub1jx702fwvkdtqkhd9p8n6ctgnycpl6whsx07a0h9s9h2hlgx6q60svk2c49 we were talking #Bitcoin, life, business, all the good stuff I really enjoy diving into.

He said something that stuck with me: how simple Bitcoin really is. And yet, so many people still struggle to grasp it.

The problem, he pointed out, is that a lot of people are stuck in complicated business strategies or challenging lives where everything feels harder than it needs to be.

So when they encounter something simple - like Bitcoin - they dismiss it. They’ll say it’s a scam, or that it’s “too easy,” because it doesn’t fit the difficult framework they’re used to.

And I think he’s right. That might be one of the biggest hurdles slowing adoption. Not that Bitcoin is hard, but that it’s too simple for people conditioned to complexity.

It’s interesting to think about - especially in industries like real estate or finance, where people are so tied to “the way things are done.”

How do we help people see Bitcoin’s simplicity for what it is? Do we even try? Or do we just let people come to it naturally, when their own needs finally push them toward it?

Always a joy chewing the fat with nostr:nprofile1qqswp94gnm4epqsgjkndl4lnd8krzdj5u4mzuppdtxksdymkty63g7gpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3qamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wwa5kuegusav22, everything you say lands and has been ruminating inside since our conversation.

I think the deeper piece is that simplicity doesn’t just challenge people intellectually — it hits their nervous system. If you’ve been conditioned to chaos, to grinding and complexity, the frequency of something simple feels foreign. It doesn’t register.

Bitcoin carries that energy of ease, clarity, and freedom. But for those used to proving themselves through struggle — whether in business, trading, or life — it can feel like it doesn’t “count.” The ego thrives on obstacles overcome, not on quiet sovereignty.

And yet that’s the beauty of it. Bitcoin isn’t rocket science. Freedom shouldn’t be complex. Spirituality, sovereignty, love — they’re not reserved for the most intellectual. Bitcoin is for all, and it has to be simple for all.

The real question is: how do we help others feel that simplicity for what it is, instead of dismissing it as “too easy”? Or do we simply trust that when life strips away the noise, people will finally recognize it for the gift it is? Maybe the guys nostr:nprofile1qqsxpfwtq34xpnqy9djsg7jjayq3rrst95r4xflje0nqlwjjwhfhrycpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hsz8thwden5te0dehhxarj9e3xjarrda5kuetj9eek7cmfv9kz7euj4ju have some thoughts on this given they advocate Bitcoin Simply!
