IMO, it’s not just ignorance. People are just scared to start what they dont want to deal with in the long run. And for the fact that everything around bitcoin is different from what it was 2013-2015, beginners look back at it and dont know where to start.

A decent number of folks wrongly conclude that they are too late, and no one wants to be the exit liquidity of others.

Yet, at the same time, if they at least appreciate that their failure to buy bitcoin is only preparing for down, and they are failing to prepare for up.. then maybe they could be motivated to buy some in order to prepare for up. but part of the problem is that they think that they don't need to prepare for up, and they wrongly believe that they are not prejudiced if they don't prepare for up... which yeah, 5-10 years down the road or later, they may well come to realize how much they fucked themselves by continuing to fail/refuse to act to at least get started, even if it is just $30 per week.. even while we know they are easily capable to do $100 per week..

You are absolutely right, just feels like you’re speaking to me here, sometimes 2020 when I heard about bitcoin, I struggled to accept the fact that I want to do it, I lacked that decision making something more like I was scared of just trying to start the investment, I felt like I needed and required a lot of money as well before I could kick start my journey in bitcoin investment and continuous accumulation. But at a certain point I had to gather motivation when I had the little basic knowledge that I can accumulate Bitcoin fraction by fraction using DCA method. The danger would have been more than not starting Bitcoin instead of regretting not starting earlier, I must admit I still regret not starting my Bitcoin earlier.

Even now is still early for anyone to start Bitcoin investment because the price is appreciating more and more, so anyone who starts now or before now starts on time because time coming we will be on another phase of Bitcoin which people that didn't invest or who will not invest now will regret dearly. And the funny thing here is that it is possible to still invest early and still regret it reason because of the mindset and target of an investor, there are people who will invest now and won't hold for a long time sometimes due to little profit they will sell or due to lack of preparation because it is not just about starting early but about preparation and determination to hold for long time because that is when you can get something beneficial or something tangible.
