 I told my mother about bitcoin for years and she was like “yeah, cool, nah.” She’s in her 70s.

And then I was like “The HRF eg @gladstein  is doing cool shit for human rights with bitcoin.”

And once I showed her some examples, she was like “holy shit” and joined their newsletter and is like 110% onboard with their mission. She reads their newsletters more than me now, and asks me questions about them, so I have to catch up on them to answer her stuff. 

She still doesn’t own Bitcoin but is like, reading every HRF email and asking me about them and totally onboard.
