I think "orange-pilling" is fine.
My problem with matrix / red pill / sheeple metaphors is rather that it implies that one is smarter than everybody else. Which is simply not true. Having early exposure is luck or fortune - but nothing that diminishes people that did not!

Einstein and Newton were smarter than you, so are most CEX owners and people who got in earlier than you.
Genius is the capacity to learn and pattern recognize at a much faster rate than the average. And so is intelligence and it falls on a spectrum
why do you have such a hard time accepting that other people WERE smarter and got in earlier on?
You get bitcoin at the price you deserve.
Equality nonsense does not hold up in reality :)
