Careful with what you think is "universally good" for others. What has been good for you, may not work for others. The person who wins the lottery might also be convinced that playing lotto is a good idea for everyone to try.
Suppose you Orange-pill someone you care about. Then they buy the top and sell the bottom and blame you/Bitcoin for making them broke.
If you believe bitcoin is a positive thing, theres no need for persuasion or argument. Just HODL and Be the Change. When they ask, "how did you get so great?" you can say "Bitcoin" and leave it at that. The best things in life don't need a salesman. In fact, if something is being sold to you, there's probably a good reason to avoid it.
I fear that for a large part of them, it will be too late.
Reminds me of these Warren Buffett quotes:
If you're in the luckiest 1% of humanity, you owe it to the rest of humanity to think about the other 99%.
The most powerful force in the world is unconditional love. To horde it is a terrible mistake in life. The more you try to give it away, the more you get it back. At an individual level, it’s important to make sure that for the people that count to you, you count to them.
I like to HODL a stack for each of the no-coiners in my life. If Bitcoin is a lifeboat, I want to reserve enough seats for everyone I care about.
