30 sats \ 1 reply \ @DarthCoin 12 Sep 2023 \ on: Bitcoin Maximalists Aren't Wrong bitcoin
I think we don't sell bitcoin. Soft sell it. Just use it. Talk about its utility, not as a get rich quick gimmick.
THIS is the keypoint.
I am using my toxic "maximalism" more as a defense mechanism against bullshitism. I explained in this article how I react to each category of people, talking about bitcoin: https://darthcoin.substack.com/p/for-who-is-writing-guides-darthcoin

Yep, I NEVER tell someone you need to buy bitcoin. I think that is a very big mistake. If they ask I'll shoot them straight and tell them what I have done and what I do. In general most people don't take unsolicited advice. There are many mental road blocks that have been put in place to keep people away from bitcoin.
  • Scams
  • The "environment"
  • Criminality
  • Hacking
  • Risk
Probably missing some but many folks are just not open to it yet. I think we are better off being ready to talk/teach those that are ready as you say Darth.
