From my limited experience everyone feels burnt.
They don't need to search bitcoin. They know what it is and everyone now has a story about how they thought about buying it when it was xxxx price and didn't and now they are bitter about it.

Keen assessment.
This matches what I’m seeing too.
Every informed no-coiner seems to have some sort of psychological Bitcoin envy-bias.
“I didn’t get in early enough, and can’t catch up to early adopters, so I’m not getting in at all. Instead, I will catch up by finding the next Bitcoin” (invests in some garbage AI penny stock).
Unfortunately, this envy can be politically weaponised similar to “tax the rich”. Therefore Bitcoiner humility is the path, not hfsp memes.
Many such cases.
Not many have the required humility.
I am aware there is the "we are still early" meme but I feel pretty late. I have no illusions about lambos and superyachts but I still see it as my best way forward so I accept I fumbled the greatest opportunity of my life and slowly build towards a better future. Just because I am late to the party doesn't mean I can't enjoy a slice of cold pizza!
Exactly right.
Those that are jealous will love the opportunity to "redistribute the benifits of bitcoin".
