exactly. That we get distracted with 1 btc = $x, is a big problem.

it matters a lot, actually. FIAT price is holding bitcoin back.

NGO is a cheap, unsustainable OPV, and leads people to shitcoinery.

Hmm. I actually think NGU is one of the worst possible orange pilling vectors.

It's also one of the best.

Unfortunately it's not very reliable as the price varies so much.

I'd argue it matters only in the sense that it's an essential orange pilling tool for normies. You have to build that connection between BTC and fiat for a newcomer to understand.

In terms of measuring bitcoin's "health", irrelevant.
