If I speak about #bitcoin with my friends, half of them will ban me and the other half will ask exactly what pyramidal scheme I am advertising π

I think my friends think it's a "phase" and they hope I'll go back to "normal". Well, and I'm trying to get them on my "side" πI probably need more friends from the #Bitcoin space. It's a complete mindset.
It's hard, because it seems a cult from outside in general. So if someone is talking about it, he is one those then from the cult.
I guess curiousity and utility is the key.
What can create curiousity in the other to read about it?
What is its extra utility that is good for everyday people, who does not care about how money should be, etc.
ππ½ I discuss a lot. But well, it is not easy
At some point I just gave up, not because I am not convinced itβs important, but rather because it causes even more resistance. The only person I was able to convince is my brother, but he was already interested in βcryptoβ back then, so it required only a small kick from my side to refocus his interest on bitcoin only.
And I think nostr:npub1r6wcp84fd7xhyflsvqjlf63d6s0fgfkyyakedfc8wzv8eqqn6gwqp03kh5 nailed it down. For an outsider, nostr looks like a cult, where one is trying to tell the others how to properly love bitcoin and how it fixes everything, including the lack of toilet paper at home π
I think the main take-home message you can really learn on nostr is study, study study how to setup a node, study how money works, study cryptography, study protocols, study how bitcoin changes the behavior of killer bees on Saturdays after a rainy night, study something and help others.
If enough people do this, others will join. Bth this also works outside of the bitcoin community.
I have not been around long enough to give up π you want the best for friends. π€ but you're right, it rather increases the resistance. And I still have so much to learn. But I like it. The way is the goal
