What got me into Bitcoin was energy. I work with large equipment (electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic etc) and learning about this 'network powered by energy' was the thing that did it for me.

I just... felt attracted to it immediately. To this day I still equate electricity with 'digital capital' and it's what makes Bitcoin special imo. It wasn't even a savings or money thing either... just a 'way to preserve energy' like the engineered systems at work.

But it's almost impossible to explain that to a 'normie' who hasn't had the professional exposure to stuff like that. Somewhere along the way I just fell down the RH and the hours fly by
