This post was inspired by tweetstorm https://twitter.com/Beautyon_/status/1179057801706065920

The author of the tweet argues that in order to use bitcoin, people should not be required to know or comprehend theories and technologies on which bitcoin is standing. He claims that for bitcoin to be successfully adopted, it needs to be simplified to such extent when people don't bother to know how it works, why it works, what purposes it was created for, etc.

I go with the tweethandle, tweetstorm on this, and that's saying yes to your second option in the closing questions. The complexity and workings of Bitcoin aren't necessary in using it. Even a lot of those who think we should master the workings of Bitcoin before using it will not know jack of how fiat runs or is minted, yet they make use of it.

In the case of bitcoin, it is really hard for normal people to use it as a medium of exchange.

Supposedly, as implied in your comment, those of us here who use Bitcoin as a medium of exchange aren't NORMAL?
