Something extra sad about younger nocoiners is they will understand how fucked they are in the current system then in the same breath say Bitcoin is too risky.

How can you be destitute/hopeless and still be risk adverse, what do you have to lose?

I don’t get it man

I imagine they’re torn between what they see with their own eyes and what they’re being told by people they trust. They need to be bold enough look beyond the advice coming from their elders because that advice is outdated and in many cases obsolete. They need to trust their own eyes and choose their own path, and that’s hard to do when it means your elders and even many of your peers are going to tell you you’re making a mistake.

Good point. You’d think being so screwed would piss them off enough to break free but many people are the horse tied to the plastic lawn chair.

They need it legitimised by 'official' bodies to gain confidence. Most people are followers who can't do anything without guidance from an authority.

I told people it may be a good idea to pick some up when it was last under 20k. Out of maybe a dozen, only one listened and she got a whole coin.

Good for you, actually convincing someone.

I’ve worked in sales for years and have been decent at it but have orange pilled exactly 0 people so far despite shouting from the rooftops to anyone who will listen for years.
