Between none and zero, I can't convince people that a form of money that's not physical and nobody know who's the inventor is the best money in existence, only they can do that themselves.

Either you don't want to or your approach needs to be retooled from the ground up. Sometimes this takes being more critical of yourself than you want to be. Not having this issue myself.

It's not an easy task.
I'm not sure what could be the best approach... Some people just recommend to give X amount of BTC to them and see if this trigger their curiosity.
Others go for the path of recommending books or any other form of content about Bitcoin fundamentals (Andreas Antonoopulos is my go to) and see if this new information open their mind.
Good luck!

I've bought both my siblings hardware wallets / signing devices 2 years ago (we've talked about bitcoin occasionally for a year now or so) and told them if they set it up and send me a bitcoin address, I'll send them some
Afaict, both of them didn't follow through

Ignore them.
Whenever they are ready, they will come to you.

Lol 0, while my mum owns some, she doesn't really believe in it, at least its in cold storage, the rest couldn't be arsed to listen to me

I've tried to orange pill many, but every attempt yet has sadly failed.

I don’t think I want to risk a relationship over something like money.
reply
None. I've managed to sway their opinions to seeing Bitcoin more positively, that it's not a scam and that it has real potential at being an open source, secure, global asset. But I wouldn't say they're orange pilled. They're still on the side that thinks the fiat system is fine and doesn't need changing.
reply
I convinced them to buy but not yet orange pill. They are always believing any fake news and not learning by themselves. For friends it is even harder. Step by step.

No-normie wants to hold "currency" that isn't accepted anywhere they shop, or "store of value" that loses 80% relative to USD in a year, or a "unit of account" that can't be used to pay down their debts.

Onboarded 2, scared off 1.

focus on the problem of inflationary fiat money. dont suggest bitcoin right away- it's easier to fool someone then convince them that they have been fooled.
reply
All of them.

I said 0 because I figured attempted orange pilling without real success doesn’t count. If it does count, then 1

all of them
