People don't seem to be open minded to learning about Bitcoin until they notice they are ALREADY starting to lose something.
For some, they are losing trust in the government. For others, they need a friend or family member to share that they're doing well with BTC - and suddenly they lose that view of themselves as the financially savyy in the family.
Maybe "loss" isn't the best framing here. But something needs to shift in their world view so that on some level, they're looking for Bitcoin - without realizing it.
So when Bitcoin "shows up" in the form of an article, a post, a podcast or a friend - they suddenly realize they need to pay attention.

quoting note1dj2…4c69If you don't own #Bitcoin , you're going to get rekt over the coming years.
I'm not saying this to make you feel bad.
I'm not trying to rub it in that you missed a run-up from 16k to 70k because you didn't study.
I'm saying stocks and real estate will be dumped by institutional investors over the next 20 years in favor of Bitcoin and retail investors will be left as bagholders with millions of dollars of debt.
I don't want you to feel stupid for not spending a few hours learning how this works.
You don't need to put 100% of your portfolio into Bitcoin.
1% will protect you in case the legacy financial system collapses.
If that 1% goes to 0, you get to tell me I was wrong for the rest of my life.
But if I'm not?
And Bitcoin goes where I think it will?
You might be making the best decision of your life by purchasing insurance on a Ponzi scheme that's eventually going to collapse.
