the financial press the idea of transacting in bitcoin is never discussed ever
MSM is a counter-signal, they exist literally as fronts for disinformation operations
for criminals and money laundering
Funny thing to say about an NSA built transparent ledger... see prior point
In the organic sphere, its almost all virtue signaling about the global south etc, not enough practicality. Doesn't matter what the MSM says, their job is to lie.

I think we agree.
I'm saying that I also see very few effective stories about humans.
If there were more of this, more people could see the real-world impact of bitcoin.

I respectfully disagree. I rarely if ever see human-facing stories about bitcoin. And that's in the bitcoin community and if I go looking for them.
And when it comes to normies I never under any circumstances see any human-facing stories at all. Zero none.
In fact in the financial press the idea of transacting in bitcoin is never discussed ever, except in WSJ comment sections where the overwhelming majority of the comments amorphously say "crypto (bitcoin?) is for criminals and money laundering" and nothing positive.
Although by that same logic... Money laundering implies censorship resistance self custody and relative privacy which is valuable for human rights.
But the general public is convinced at every turn that... Somehow those things aren't achievable through bitcoin which doesn't make any sense.
I would go so far as to say that bitcoin is the worst, most stacked against it asset or network I have ever seen in the mainstream media or financial press.
