Yeah in fairness I find that there are different states in getting it.
Bitcoin from a monetary standpoint and understanding what money is as well as contrasting it against the current incumbent system, fiat.
There is then Bitcoin the tool that has its own nuances.
I feel I was mostly in the same spot when I made my first self custody transfer from Coinbase to Bitcoin Core. It was terrifying even though I moved a relatively small amount first.
She will feel the “tangibility” of Bitcoin once you set her up on self custody and she’ll have her second “aha” moment.
Appreciate what you’re doing!
