Google fred M2 and show her the graph.
Tell her this is what’s been going on in the printing department of her bank.
As her where did the USA government get the money during Covid so they could give everybody a free check of (helicopter money). Where did they get that money from?
As her how much money she thinks is actually in the bank she works.
Show her the website wtf happened in 1971
Ask her what is the difference between a 100 dollar bill and a piece of paper with a bit of green ink. Ask her why the 100 dollar bill is worth more (like 50 times) the piece of paper and the bottle of ink.
If she starts asking questions like aha, that is strange, you already orange pilled her.
If she doesn’t say aha and start asking questions and say these are stupid questions then she is still asleep. You cannot wake her up.
You see Neo, you have been living in a dream world…the fiat world around you…. You see these people going to their banks, doing their laundry….
I like this answer. It is a good start. What is "objective" in bitcoin is doing the work to find the nonce. that is what requires energy. However it takes a bit of studying to understand how a hash function works. Also an "objective" part is being able to trace every single UXTO back to its Coinbase transaction. The rest is just a human being deciding they prefer btc to plastic forks or fiat paper or anything else
