It did. Bitcoin had intensive marketing.
Some of the marketing I was intrigued by was "DCA and chill" and "Stack sats. Stay humble." and the whole "Honeybadger don't care." Meme. Those were good and had a future-oriented, positive focus. Also choosing orange as a color has me associating anything 🍊 with Bitcoin.
Bitcoin marketed itself with NGU.
And then people sold when Number Went Down. 😂 Nostr isn't money. You can't just get an npub and then sit on it for 10 years and then exchange it for a private jet. You need to have some reason for moving, that isn't merely a Get Rich scheme.
Bitcoin isn't a scheme either and all those people that sold along the way are kicking them selves now wondering if it's too late. You can get an npub, sit in it for ten years and come back and reclaim your identity. That's more valuable than people are aware of. Just how Bitcoin is more valuable than people are aware of
