Oddbean new post about login | logout When you try to orange pill someone, what’s the first path you take to explain why with #bitcoin their is no second best?
The normies I meet are so hopeless, that rise of food and holiday prices is the only thing they manage to understand. Word inflation is also marginal, because in them it triggers a red light "economy/political scientist advice required". So I show them how their beloved vegetables and soy milk are getting cheaper in bitcoin all the time. Freedom from government is a non-starter, because in their hearts (they do not use head to think) it is autotranslated into criminal intent.
Asking what they want money for. Some people don’t want money, some people want it to save, ease of use in spending, freedom to cross borders, if you find the reason they want money, you can show how bitcoin does it better then any other type.
