Good morning all you lovely people.
You ARE early to bitcoin.
The normies, your friends and family are not coming.
I've been retired on bitcoin for the past 12 years and whatever I try I cannot orange pill my friends or family.
I've tried talking, I've tried videos, I've given them bitcoin (they lose it) I've given them bitcoin on paper and told them to move it to a wallet they control or I'll take it back in a year.
I took all of them back.
I sent my most tech savy chum a bitcoin when it was just under $100, he sold it when it doubled.
I set up all my nephews and niece's and my cousins and second cousins and all their kids with offline wallets (I kept a copy of keys) and told them to call me once a month and prove they have the keys and I'll send them a hundred quid, every month until I die.
Only two nephews and one second cousin managed to do it, and they all gave up after 5 or 6 months.
My only successes have been few and far between.
Two female friends, both drunk at the time.
I set them up with wallets (again I kept a copy) and TOOK £200 off of each and gave them bitcoin.
A few years later I sold the Bcash fork and told them about it.
They had forgotten all about owning bitcoin, they have both gone on to buy more now and then. Not oranged pilled but forced holdlers.
My tech savy chum finally last year decided to put as much as he dare into bitcoin, 11 years after he sold at $200.
He will never go all in because he fumbled it years ago and it hurts.
Not oranged pilled in the true sense.
And finally my most successful try...
My new neighbour 11 years ago I gave his young child an amount of bitcoin for Christmas, timelocked until they are 18ish.
Yes I kept a copy.
Every BBQ or beer on the terrace I would mention how much it was worth, very soon it had exceeded the money he was putting aside in a bank for them, and paying the bank monthly for the privilege.
He has since gone on to buy almost every month , still I wouldn't call him orange pilled but he is doing alright.
Why was he my most successful?
Can't say for sure but he was already a saver.
Running his own business for more than 20 years.
Already had 3 or 4 different state currencies in his life.
Hates the tax man and state bureaucracy he's dealing with.
And was trying to plan for his kid's future.

Lol that was also my peak moment on twitter.
Couldn't change my profile after that 'Just buy bitcoin, it's not that difficult '
Plus I gained a bunch of new followers and that just seemed odd to me.
I did send it to my friends and family, to seemingly no effect but it's at least another touch point for them.
Left twitter shortly and spent more time on the motorbike, a win win.

I would be happy to have the option of temporary posts, a day a week, 3 months or a year.
Firstly I say nothing that's so important that it needs to be stored forever, I have hard drives at home for that.
Secondly I do sometimes say dumb shit that is best deleted pretty quick.

I'm with you, it's nonstop slop.
12 years ago I moved to a cabin in the woods with painfully slow Internet, that forced me to reject pictures, vids and block most scripts and limited the number of sites I could visit in a day.
It was 1995 again, it was kind of great.
By the way, the little feather icon/link (I'm too old to know what it is) doesn't work.

It's an old one, proper B movie type of thing, bad acting and cheap sets but the story is great. If you're religious or an atheist it'll give you something to think about and it's old enough you can find it on YouTube now.

The newest Linux Ubuntu has messed me up. Displays the date but no day without a mouse click.
But to be fair I've hardly known what day it is since about the age of 12 when I discovered I could just go fishing instead of going to school.
It was the best place to learn fluid mechanics and biology.

You've missed a bit there, "allowing hard currency." Even if they don't allow it, bitcoin is still being adopted all around the world, that's the point. It can't be stopped and any country that bans or refuses to move towards a bitcoin standard is going to be left behind in poverty.
