But not everyone always pays attention to techy things, if people are going to introduce others into the bitcoin world they need a basis to start from. Not a lot of people in 2011 probably even knew what it was or how to get it. Of course jumping on the bandwagon now is kind of dumb because of how high priced they are and how difficult mining or getting any is.
Why even open your mouth to prove the world that you're dumb?
Its the same thing ppl said in 2011: $11 for a btc? are you dumb? it was only $.01 in 2010. Now i cant even buy
1000btc OMG.....
Also if mining is still easy, would the price still be at current level? Are you that stupid to not understanding basic economy?
