Hey guys,

I don't get what's holding us back. Every time I talk about crypto with a family member or someone at work their eyes glaze over.

I feel like I'm the weirdo talking about klingon mating rituals!

Which makes me wonder - why are we still on the fringe? What could we do to take blockchain technology and make it accessible for everyone?

Anyway, that's my rant for today...

What do you think?

It's rather simple: People in the western world don't need an alternative to their fiat currencies in daily life. When would you need bitcoin as a member of a 1st world country in your daily endeavors? Pretty much never.

This is why BTC is being used as an alternative to gold, and most people aren't bright enough to see that empires come and go and most fiat currencies will fall.

In other words, we are early adopters, and 99% of people out there are ignorant about the economy, decentralized networks and so on.
