I just told some buddies at work that the plan is simple: “stay humble, stack sats, stay solvent”. The two replies I got were

1) But you can’t buy anything with bitcoin.

2) I should have bought bitcoin when I was 20.

They are sick of me explaining how Bitcoin works and how fiat makes them poorer so I just stick to Matt @ODELL s simple advice.

It makes me sad that people I care about refuse to win.

I feel your pain man

stay humble. walk the path. alone if you have to.

I hear ya dude. I've successfully orangepilled 2 people in my life. Neither were originally my friends. Most people can't face reality. Its not your job to do it for them.

I feel you. Luckily we'll be able to buy lots of things directly with bitcoin later this year!

For good ideas to stick, People need to believe they arrived at those thoughts on their own. Cool people generally don’t consider themselves as “cool”. It’s just how they are.

The people I’ve orange-pilled were libertarian minded already. I never try with progressives and only gently push with conservatives.

Make them get a wallet and send them some. Even if it’s only a few bucks.

You gotta just keep moving. Leave those behind that drag you down. If they’re curious, then be there to help. Until then, forward

Show them how to buy coffee from my site, then drink it in front of them but don't share 😂

Ah well, everyone benefits from a bitcoinized world even starting from zero

I fear the day when ignorance turns to animosity. Its what keeps me trying.

Same. To help deal with normies like this, I've created a HFSP folder in my head... I now file them there... and have moved on.

Nice to meet you friend 🤝😉 you can't do more than that. 🤷‍♂️ resign yourself! He continues to love him even if they get fucked in the ass by the fiat system. They will have other values.. 😅

I’ve reverted to not wanting anybody to know I own btc. When I hear people talking about it my hair stands up on the back of my neck but I stay silent.

I'll throw some positivity in. Managed to orange pill 3 people so far at a new job. With the help of some of excellent podcasts of course.

Same thing with my long extended family . They are not keen to try new things .

Some people are meant to stay poor unfortunately

It causes me sadness that they don't have the humility or genuine connection with you and so aren't willing to listen and learn.

you can tell the homies to look into 40HPW🎧, but you can’t make them listen.

Fiat makes them poorer... you realised that, but some need to be truly poor to understand

Had a friend like this. One day it just clicked. He got online at 11pm, out of breath, having ran home after finishing his late shift, and just said "I think your right, how do I buy bitcoin?"

It's painful sometimes. This: "It makes me sad that people I care about refuse to win. " Having a convo with two neighbors, one just got 50K US in bitcoin and asked how to store it long-term (that's a win). The 2nd neighbor was 'why keep it in Bitcoin, sell it and get the cash.' SMH, I've tried for ...

Some are unable to imagine the possibilities of Bitcoin
