 #Bitcoin is countercultural and hard. 

People aren’t going to understand it in 15 minutes. No way around that proof-of-work. Tell your friends to let it steep and to reach out to you if they have questions. Give book recs. Read, reflect, think, pause, stack sats, get skin in the game. 
 When did you start understanding?  
 This has been my strategy with family and church family. I’m up to 8 successful orange pills atm. 
 On ramps are so important for this. Find ways for people to dip their toes in safely and build from there.

 Converting my historical wages to sats, and seeing it fall exponentially did more for me than looking at a price chart. 

Bitcoin denominated wages down 85% in the last 4 years alone. Really puts things in perspective. 

The average person will never see their wages meaningfully grow in bitcoin terms over time.

You are in a position to accumulate bitcoin today that you will long for in 4 years.
