what makes bitcoin appealing, in other words: what is the "breaking the ice" part about bitcoin that you can tell a newbie in a sentence or two, too pull them into this crypto journey BTC @millzp0
I think the decentralization is the best feature of the coin. Is great to see decentralized money, because no one can freeze it. No banks and no govs can avoid you make a transaction with bitcoin.
The second nice feature is the code by itself, I don't know if you have experience with bitcoin core (bitcoin-cli). But the fact that anyone can code transactions is an awesome feature too. All those onchain and ofchain systems now day makes it friendly for all.
