I think you're right that for normies it'll be tough to get them to understand but I onboarded a normie to bitcoin last night, got him to download a wallet and show me the qr code then sent him some sats, instantly received, entire process took probably under a minute - it was quicker for him to download a bitcoin wallet (muun) then make a wallet and show me the qr code than it would have been for him to find and send me his bank account number and sort code - normies need a usage for it and right now it's usage as a currency is fringe, since me and a few other friends like placing bets on random things going to try and get them to swap over to bitcoin for it, bet in sats instead of gbp
