I think we're mixing out metaphors here.

You started by wanting a fund to encourage people to read history books. I don't believe that this is the best use of money or time.

As for spreading the philosophy of Bitcoin, it may look slow from your perspective, but, Bitcoin is spreading faster than any other technology or product in history.

The Internet itself, built in 1969, took 20 years to allow commercial traffic on it. Then another 10 to reach the current level of adoption that Bitcoin has.

On a separate ethical note, paying people to correctly answer questions is questionable and ripe for abuse. I think this route would lead to a very, very dark place.
