I mention #bitcoin to people I've established caring relationships for 30-40 year olds, not married no kids. They still believe it's scammy. Only person that get it is a 50 some year old father of 4.
Similar experience. I keep on mentioning. One or two are seemingly getting it but not as much as taking the plunge. I do however set up a wallet for the first born child of my best friend. So this is a multiple year experiment but I think I’ll have the last laugh😂
Just tell them that there is no more risk in bitcoin than paper money at this point.
