I have several family members whom I have been talking about Bitcoin with for a number of years now.
They still mostly comment on price to me, or to ask perhaps if quantum is going to kill it.
It must be that I have failed to communicate the importance of it, because I don't see how they aren't thinking about it every waking second, like me.

Ha, yeah, I know that feeling. It's the desire to help people unfuck their lives and understand Bitcoin that really gets to me. I agree with your assessment that you may have failed to communicate the importance of it. Giving them a copy of 'Bitcoin is for Everyone' might help. It speaks to normies.

Fascinating post. I don't have much to add, other than totally agreeing with this:
"Normies seem to think it's a scam or a get-rich-quick scheme and don't associate it with freedom at all (I would add that normies don't seem to think the financial system they use poses any threat to their freedom at all)."
Helping normal people understand Bitcoin, why it's important, how it works – that alone is huge, and what will come from that understanding is the realization that it's freedom money.
