 I bought my father-in-law a copy of the #Bitcoin Standard and he just finished reading it.  

He still had a lot of questions about the technical details and still believes that "sontashi" could show up and steal everyone's bitcoin, but he sees the flaws in the fiat game.  It's progress 🙌  
 Way to go!! The next holiday table conversation is going to be a good one 🥂 
 He's a smart guy and I can tell it's piqued his curiosity 🧠 
 I have just boight a some books to give to freinds and family as well. Not sure how it will go, but and am sick of them looking at me like I am crazy. 
  I've sent a total of 5 different people copies with very mixed reactions.  A couple have read it,  one read some but is still an ETH head.  One guy threw it in the trash. Literally, into the trash can.

You can only do so much 🤷 
 Yeah, I am expecting the same result
