obvs with Bitcoin friends that's the case... but I have at least one close friend with whom it legit never comes up: there's no hiding or obfuscating and we can talk about whatever, it just never comes up and he has zero/negative interests in any sort of such convos or related ideas.

it just never comes up

That's different. I don't talk to everyone about everything either. You'd probably have to be an insufferable bore to do so.

but then I don't follow your point about "all-in"?

There's no meaningful difference in my interaction with this friend and, say, the best pal among my village acquaintances. One knows about my work and convictions and bitcoin stuff, the other doesn't (though suspects some of my market-friendly shit).

"All-in" just means I have no concerns about the strength of the friendship, should they learn additional information about me: i.e. I could tell them anything without reservation.

I could tell them anything without reservation.

hm... interesting. Yeah, I think this is true for some/most of my village crowd too. It would just become an extra, unnecessary friction point (that, I suppose, isn't really what I want from them)
