I recently watched the movie Goosebumps 2 with my kids and Bitcoin was once again mentioned briefly in this movie. The one boy mentioned Bitcoin and the other boy called it Nerd money.  Roll Eyes

So it got me thinking, why would people label Bitcoin as Nerd money, when people use electronic payment options like PayPal every day? What feature about Bitcoin gives people this impression about Bitcoin?

The first thing that comes to mind is the technical IT knowledge that people need to understand the concept about this technology and also it's origin amongst very highly skilled programmers and developers in the IT industry.

I am definitely not a nerd, but I am more than willing to carry that label, if it means that Bitcoin should be part of my skill and knowledge set in this world.  Grin

Bitcoin Nerds will rule this world!
I am not an IT expert and I am just an ordinary individual living a simple life with Bitcoin earnings. Though not that big as others it will still be as important as everybody has in their wallets. For me calling Bitcoin as nerd money is something that is great to hear as a Bitcoin enthusiast because it symbolizes how creative and advance we are who used it for whatever we want online or in any crypto transactions.
