What makes explaining #bitcoin and #nostr so hard is the fact that they exist outside the worldview most people live their lives within. Asking someone to adopt them is like asking someone to stand where there's no ground or breathe where there's no air. Fiat has warped how people see everything and people take the new view as normal. Nothing lines up with that reality when you explain the problems Bitcoin and Nostr solve, so you're automatically dismissed. Telling someone their worldview is corrupted makes people fearful and closes them off to reason.

I don't know a better way to explain Bitcoin than by letting people feel enough pain from fiat to start questioning why things are so messed up at a fundamental level, and then introducing them to Bitcoin. Otherwise, there's no motivation to learn.
