Fiat money is a technology built by dubious people, with questionable design choices.

This results in an unreliable, shaky system of frequent crashes, careening to a fatal meltdown.

Nevertheless, my family and friends still ask me why they would ever trust bitcoin.

My answer: Learn about money and how it matters to all mankind. Don't start at the criticism. Start at understanding the basics. Formulate your own questions. Study history and the present narratives.

If they are not interested, you can't "help" them. Show your attitude, set an example. Proof of Work speaks louder than words.
