Let me tell you a story when I tried to explain to people that bitcoin is not a pyramid.
It was in 2013-2014, when I first got acquainted with bitcoin. All my friends said that bitcoin is an ordinary pyramid and it will soon burst. But as we can see, 10 years have passed since the creation of bitcoin. Those who are not afraid and they risked to invest their money in" this pyramid " and now feel very good.
You had a good view dude, not only I but everyone around me know BTC, but we don't care. May be hard real life made us enough for thinking of this kind of asset.
