Freezy on Nostr: My little brother has (finally) started falling down the #Bitcoin rabbit hole. ...
My little brother has (finally) started falling down the #Bitcoin rabbit hole. Hereby, his shock and especially his sense of urgency very much remind me of how I felt a few years ago. Along the last few months he FOMOd most his few available cash savings into #Bitcoin, as he thought 'price-eruption-lambo-time' is imminent .. afterall, now that he had (somewhat) figured out that juicy BTC is the best form of money humanity has ever touched, he is expecting the rest of the world to understand now too lol. Reminds me of how I dumped my Paypal shares in 2018, because as I started to understand what Bitcoin is, I was convinced that everyone would figure it out, adapt Bitcoin, and fiat payment providers such as Paypal would be obliterated in a matter of months .. well .. that was very much a misjudgement. But I think this sense of urgency is a quite common reaction .. and whilst u sit there in shock like "any second now people r gonna realize the stupidity & arbitrariness of a 2% inflation target" .. the majority of people DGAF lel.
