Have you orange pilled anyone in real life before? Family? Friends? Coworkers? How did you do it? How long did it take you? I find it really hard to orange pill my family and I've heard the same from many Bitcoiners online. Why do you think it's so hard to orange pill your family?

Time, and gifting them sats.
Sats used to be in a hardware device, but I have moved on to mobile wallets since mid-2021.
Now it's a great excuse to remind them to move their Sats after the launch of a phone, even if they don't intend to switch phones.
Great ice-breaker :)

First, you have to explain the problem and provide a high level history of money
Money = a counter balance of human time creating productive things
Money has 2 use cases
- Value across space
- Value across time
When money does these things it becomes a unit of account
Fiat System
Value across space = dollar
Value across time = house backed by debt
Gold
Value across space = note with counter party risk = reason for fiat
Value across time = bearer resource hard to counterfeit
Bitcoin
Value across space = Lightning
Value across time = bearer property native to a distributed ledger (impossible to counterfeit)
Money is broken which is causing the issues we see today
Bitcoin is a near perfect money in the sense that its as scarce as our most limited resource; time
Money has always been an abstraction of value tied to a resource, and then to a ledger (Value to Gold to a ledger).
Bitcoin is an abstraction of value tied to a ledger without counter party risk...which is the revolutionary breakthrough

Do you think it's easier orange pilling strangers, especially online, compared to people in real life that you even are acquainted with?

The difficulty comes in part from lack of interest, but we will all have time to learn about and understand bitcoin (all in their own time).

Show people how to earn free sats which equals money and then show them where/how to spend those sats. This in my opinion is how you effectively orange pill someone. I got some of my friends into the space and they are loving the opportunities available to plebs.
