You know sometimes I wonder if the real reason Bitcoins adoption rate isn't much much higher is because people are much more stupid than we think.
You want to explain the fiat money system to them? Or how the chain and wallets and hashes and signatures, let alone Lightning works? You're dealing with people who think a fraudulent check and withdrawing cash was a free money glitch.

Thats why its going to take a long time. If people are seeing their bitcoiner friends become wealthy over time, that might be enough for it to finally click.

Maybe the underlying issue is that people are not really awake when they walk through life.
Deposit a fake cheque and withdraw cash? No self awareness to think for one second if this is maybe way to obvious to actually work. Even worse: they needed TikTok to come to such a shallow idea. It's like these people are not awake.
