I still do. If I'm 100% honest, it's even worse now. I feel a little burned out by my almost constant absorption in bitcoin for more than 5 years now. I need a little break, both from SN and from my own obsession.

It is incredibly hard to explain to family and friends why I'm not elated. When seeing post election headlines about bitcoin's price, people ask "what are you gonna buy?" or "what will you invest in next?" They look at it as if it's over. Time to cash out. It's like the game is over and I won. I understand that mindset. It's how I was too most of my life. I find it impossible to break through the fiat wall to genuinely reach new people.

I can't say enough about this post:

I am completely rethinking my whole approach to talking to people about bitcoin.

One thing, though. I think that SN has better content now than ever. New accounts are popping up, but many are not new bitcoiners. The general level of discourse is better than ever, IMO.
