It takes humility and many hours to deprogram yourself from years of indoctrination to start understanding Bitcoin.
The majority of people are either so immersed in day-to-day life chores or plainly lazy that they are not willing to do the work.
I myself gave The Bitcoin Standard book to several friends and family members. How many actually read it? None. Pure laziness.
Indeed it can be very hard to orange-pill people. You talk to them about bitcoin, point them in the right direction, and there sometimes is a strong tendency for them to come back to you with all these memcoins. It just doesn't make any sense.
