this is quite interesting, it seems like a key to understanding btc comes in large part from an understanding or perception of an issue (decentralisation ,fiat printing etc ) so some people got the appeal right away
since i was, maybe like many, asleep at the wheel and not paying attention to any of this , nothing stood out. it was just new thing, number go up, get distracted by shitcoins etc and then a long road of discovery.
still, better late than never i suppose
