The better the UX, the less the Education required.
Education is time consuming and increases barriers.
If the default great UX was great you would need 0 education.
Do you need to spend 6 months and read 4 books and 12 YouTube channels to learn how to send an email or receive one? There you go.
Watch out, you might select out the entirety of the global population, minus 0.02%.
UX improvements are the only way forward. Bitkey and Spark are great step forwards, for example.
No, I needed only few hours to learn about Bitcoin and how to use it properly.
But once I got the right path, I never fall from it, because I learned the right way.
The rest was just fun and learning more deep use cases.
Education is a must because is not just how to use send/receive, is even more

We do not want dumb people using Bitcoin, we want smart people and knowleageable.
Better UX means dumb people that will get scammed easily no matter how UX is.

PERFECTLY FINE FOR ME. I do not want to be surrounded by dumb people.
Dumb people = lazy people = more scams.
More scams = less adoption.
