You are thinking of Bitcoin as a revolution.
I think of it as an evolution, the strongest contender in the Darwinism among different forms of money. Yes, it is strongest, but it does not play out in one day/week/year, it is a decade spanning process.
As more and more people recognise the value of self-sovereignty of money, they will adopt (or die poor and hungry with stash of hyperinflated Fiat notes), but it will not happen tomorrow.
And, in the process, every on-ramp or off-ramp will be another small nail in the coffin of Fiat.
Venezuelans are shitcoining? Yes, because they are ignorant morons like much of the world. But not the smartest ones among them, they are hedging their bets with Bitcoin. There are at least two full nodes running from Venezuela, for example.
I delivered multiple Bitcoin lessons for total noobs, and the third question I always I get is
The simpler the answer (again, for someone starting out), the better for Bitcoin.
I delivered multiple Bitcoin lessons for total noobs
I wonder what kind of lessons you delivered, because from what I see you are posting, is mostly garbage fiat maximalism and very little knowledge about Bitcoin.
reply
Mostly on
-
What is Bitcoin and how is it better than a bank account
-
How to use on-chain coins (send and receive, with a mobile wallet)
-
How to send and receive lightning
-
How to swap between these two layers
-
Tell them if they are serious about putting a large-ish stash, they should get a cold wallet
I am no Satoshi or Hal Finney, but I do it to make some extra cash out of these (obviously, I cannot ask them pay me Sats, because if they could, they would not come to my lesson)
fiat maximalism
I am a wealth maximalist, whatever the denominator. In my personal finance though, the unit-of-account is grams of gold! How about yours?
Why are you so angry at me and always up my ass dude? If you were in the same city, I would happily buy you a beer!

Why are you so angry at me
I am not. I just don't like fiat maxis, especially those who pretend to be bitcoiners... From your total of 600 items on SN 80% is about fiat mindset. You have much to learn...
I always look into stackers history before commenting on their posts.
And that's why shitcoiners can't fool me.
