Yes I was talking about bitcoin back in 2017 and they were saying bitcoin is a 'scam'. Now I feel a bit sorry for them as even I never expected the price to go where it has. For me it was firstly about having direct custody and control of my money- not being subservient to bankers and government. NGU is great, but secondary. Most people I know I thought were freethinkers- critical of too much government corporate/banker power and valuing individual freedom - we protested in the Occupy movement and wanted more accountability from banks and governments - but when this amazing technology that enables us to have our own decentralised p2p payments without government or bankers and that treats all participants on strictly equal terms became available, they didn't/don't see the beauty, freedom and power of it.
