I think the issue is that most of us and people around us live in countries who do nothing too egregious with the money. Yes, inflation sucks, but it is not super terrible, particularly compared to buying and selling bitcoin at the wrong time.
When they start bailing-in the banks, seizing money for going to the wrong protest, introducing capital controls on spending and ATM withdrawals, people will start to get it.
Of course, there will be this "it won't happen to me" mentality, but that is a human universal - nothing to be done about it. For these people, it will, unfortunately, be too late.
