Honestly, the best orange pill is just being rich.
Like most people, I ignored Bitcoin for a long time… then, someone I trust mentioned the then-current $ amount of his Bitcoin position and it got my attention.
He didn’t have to discuss inflation, difficulty adjustments or UTXOs… he only had to be rich.
This obviously only works in circles of extreme trust, which are quite uncommon.
