"economic constant" Truth!!
First time I heard of bitcoin was coincidentally on the same week as I was researching on password hashing practices for user login info. back in 2010/2011 on a chess website troll room. I got into bitcoin.org and figured it was internet money built similar to torrent and was amused. But it never crossed my mind that it was relevant to me as i was not an online shopper and back then i wasn't even using online banking. Had no clue about central banking scam nor what money actually meant. Poor and naive normie mango.
How do people view Bitcoin in India, generally?

There is a huge premium to buy sats here. >5% in kyc exchanges. 10-15% P2P it is mostly because of capital control laws by the govt. official usd-inr exchange rate is 83inr/usd. however usdt trades at 92inr/usdt.
People in general(no-coiners) view it like any other place. crazy made up internet money used by black marketers and hackers. Plenty of shitcoiners too. Most have btc/shitcoins bought in exchange and keep it there in the hope of an exit. However I've observed a drastic increase in bitcoiners over the years who 'get it'.
Most people here are statists. But thanks to the internet, there does exist a ground up antistate culture only likely to grow over time.
