find new influencers ideally ones that are not groomed by the old ones to 'get in line' they are out there
I'm not interested in or follow influencers. There are Bitcoin 'educators' that I read (and often disagree with) but that's completely different.
I was interested in Bitcoin before I had ever used (or heard of) Twitter anyway I think the whole site is a big psyop...

As an aside: The remarkable things going right now are in the mempool. It has almost cleared of transactions. All of these concerns about 'scaling' and 'fees' and 'self-custody being too expensive etc etc'...
Where the hell are the transactions to justify those concerns? Without spammy-transactions like runes and ordinals (are they are spam) the fees are... 1-2 sats/vbyte with the occasional empty blocks.
Now that the fees are so low people can "take self custody" and "exit their banks" and "transact freely and consolidate utxos and so on and so on..."
All the transactions around the world, 24/7 available with a smartphone, and yet fees are pretty low.
It just goes to show that the vast majority of people, unless they are very rich, or very poor, see Bitcoin as a store of value and not necessarily for regular transactions
