You know what? Normies are followers for the most part. They also don't care about freedom, sovereignty, or privacy. All things they should care about. They will follow though. This is why it is so important to lead yourself towards these things. This is the way forward.

people will use bitcoin and not understand why it's better, just that it's better
reply
Exactly. The average person does not understand most things around them. Things that are far more simple than bitcoin.
reply
Some people will use bitcoin without even knowing it's better, they just won't have a choice, because everybody has to pay their bills.
reply
why do you think its better for those people?

Lol normies would trade pieces of paper with dead presidents they never knew on them and see it as authoritative, its time to stop thinking what normies want, they will want whatever they are told to want
reply
I welcome that. Most people are afraid and too lazy to take responsibility. This will benefit those who aren't, at the cost of those who are. A nice change from the clown world, where the opposite is true.

If you'd asked the normies 5000 years ago if they wanted a wheel to carry their load, they'd have said, "No thank you, I prefer carrying everything on my back like my father and his father before him."

The people who will gulp the orange pill in are the ones whose immediate life situation, combined with experiences, recognise a possible solution for a discomfort in their lives.
If you want to trade denominated in sats with someone, you need to find out what things in their life give them the most stress, and where it can really be a benefit, point them towards that application of Bitcoin to one or more of their most pressing needs.
They will want to deal in sats with you just for the sense of being valued so as to listen and to think and to give a genuinely helpful solution to them.
Nobody is interested in a new thing unless it makes their life better somehow. For some the reasons that get traction are very personal, vain, or frivolous. The hipster chic, the glamor of the outsider geek with the shiny trinkets... the sense of "saving the world".
But when all is said and done, it's one less person I have to wade through the fiat system to pay.

Bitcoin is freedom money. Most people do not understand money, not to talk of freedom. Another generation will have to arise that experience money as the most sound money.

Normies actually don't care about most things until it becomes a must have and this is definitely it and Hayes is a snakeoil peddler, not sure why people keep such a close track about what he says
reply
Even more reason for those who do understand to run and use a full node, because most others won't.
