fiat-rich people who think they already have it made and who think that some new information is below them, will learn the hard way. this story is not a success story, it's an indicator of where people are at. we have a lot more work to do.
recently someone hosted me at their house to specifically teach them about bitcoin.
i spoke for an hour straight, showed lightning transactions, utxo management, 2-minute video snippets from various educators, and shared links to study from. i kept it fun and funny despite opening with a statement "it's bitcoin or death." they took notes. i left them the bitcoin standard book.
this is such a satisfying feeling, to be able to talk non-stop for an hour and say nothing but the truth, with full confidence, to someone paying attention. this is what i have been training for. with each iteration, i get better and faster.
Sounds like you are a great educator. I couldn't have pulled that off, even if I had your skills. If I said "it's bitcoin or death" to my friends, they would laugh me out of the room. At best, they would see it as a high flying tech stock, with the ultimate goal of cashing out for fiat. I guess for your presentation to be effective, your audience must be somewhat receptive to bitcoin going in.
