In order to 'discover' #Bitcoin, you have to learn and read, right?
So does it change us, or do we become educated?
Those that WON'T learn/read (go down the rabbit hole) never see it.
BUT, another thought. Bitcoin is brutally honest. No cheating. After reading, I think over 100 books now, the fiat system builds you to cheat, gamble, and steal. Think about that for a bit.
Not that we naturally want to do these things, we know they are wrong, but think about the times you get a super good deal on something - almost like stealing - and you have that nagging feeling that you are ripping someone off. Or, you win a few bucks in a lottery or at a raffle - it's exciting getting something for nothing but why does it not last?
Bitcoin makes you want to GIVE, not receive. So from that respect maybe it does change your psychology. But the learning process is so important.
Not to drivel on here, but Bitcoin is a new base layer of culture, changing the way we interact. So it's going to make us feel different. I think better. And I'm falling for the "Softwar" narrative more and more (Jason Lowrey's books - Softwar). Human antlers. I think his thesis is correct.
