I think it's a similar problem in many areas of Bitcoin. The well has been sufficiently poisoned - by scammers and FUD - that people have that negative association and defensiveness against it, no matter what the facts may be.
Fear and curiosity cannot co-exist, and folks have been told to be scared. I suggest we call this The Curse of the Bitcoiner going forward. 😉 If they would let their guard down for just a moment.....
