Bitcoin is digital currency.
Bitcoins are an inflation hedge.
Bitcoin is a form of money.
Bitcoin is not a currency.
Bitcoin is a software.
Bitcoin is a symbol of hope
The Bitcoin system is an electronic one.
Bitcoin can be compared to a heating system.
In reality, all are false in that they only describe a small part of what Satoshi began. This second word. “is,” The problem lies in this. Bitcoin can be all of these things, but if you only say one you’re limiting what you know about it. Bitcoin is Bitcoin. It is important to understand all of the characteristics that Bitcoin has, and then describe it without placing a limitation on it. People who say Bitcoin is a hedge against inflation have already been there when they were wrong. The argument that it lacks metallic properties is a problem for those who claim Bitcoin is digital gold. People who say that it is just money are missing the fact that the PoW harvests electrical energy and heat in the real-world.
At the time of discovery, every single human invention and discovery was unknown. How can it be described in one sentence or word if it’s unknown?
Language remained limited until humanity agreed on a term for it. To describe Bitcoin properly, language evolved to reflect reality. We’re still trying to find words that describe Bitcoin, but they always fail. To be very clear: the descriptions did not work, but the reality of Bitcoin remains the same.
Bitcoin is still a foreign concept to many people, even the Bitcoin masters who understand it at a deeper level. This is because the language we use to communicate this unknown hasn’t evolved. Even with new words that were incorporated into the language, outsiders still find it difficult to understand.
Bitcoin’s monetary policies are governed by difficulty adjustments, halving schedules, and consensus mechanisms.
Although correct, this sentence is difficult to understand. It’s impossible to teach a person a language simply by explaining the language. The words must be correlated one-by-one to the native language. It gets worse when you have to try and explain something that doesn’t even exist in language. Only by observing and experiencing the thing in all of its qualities can you find a solution. You will find new words because your current vocabulary is insufficient.
Teaching people philosophy on Bitcoin is not helpful. It’s for those who are bookworms or Bitcoin cultists. This is an unnatural method of learning for everyone else. How do kids learn when they are young, before they have the ability to read, speak or understand their parent’s language? What do the toxic maximis say about them? “Have fun staying poor”? Do you think that’s true? It is through the senses that they learn. This is much more information learned than what you can get from reading and speaking. They continue doing it if they like the experience! When they feel pain, they will stop!
Bitcoin can be a source of pain to people who don’t use it, but also joy when they optimize their lives with the benefits that Bitcoin offers. Breez’s team is focused on creating the technology that will allow them to have that experience. They will learn through experience, and not by promises about the future.
People say that talk is cheap and the orange pilling method is used to target a small section of the population. Anyone can have an experience, and it is available NOW. It is no longer necessary to wait until the future for them to experience Number Go Up; the benefit can be experienced now. If you wish to retain them, give them an experience. The language used and any problems with the description will not matter. By solving their problems, you will create a greater understanding of the person who is going through it. This is what I’m talking about.
Dale Carnegie was able to observe reality in a way that no other person could. Dale Carnegie figured out a new way to work with the hardest metal. It was then that he realized this would revolutionize the construction industry and bring about completely new opportunities that were impossible before. Carnegie began harvesting the power of metal. Let me leave you to the reader to see how many similarities you can find between Bitcoin’s development and our way of doing things.
After he had figured out the solution, he began to build the first large-scale application: A steel bridge over the Mississippi River. It was such a wide river that no other materials could handle the pressure of the flowing water, let alone the heavy load. Steel was the only material that could be used. Carnegie was determined to get everyone on board with building this bridge due to the high cost of harvesting steel. The construction was also much slower than expected, as it wasn’t possible to estimate the benefits. The cost was all that everyone saw and they did not wish to take on the future unknown. Dale was one of the few who saw that it would be worth it.
It was only a few who knew about and accepted this new reality. All the others were trying to force their belief onto steel from stone, wood, or iron. It was so ugly that no one wanted to walk on the bridge. The bridge was a new thing with new properties, no matter how Dale explained it to the people. “steelpill” them). The people lived by the “old reality” and created a story to justify the fact that the steel bridge was a fictional construction. This was, in some ways, true. The illusion was only in people’s minds who had not experienced it.
How can you convince someone to experience something that is not fiction but they think it’s real? How would you describe something that is not a language (through fiction of one)? All of us have an instinct to protect ourselves. The things we find new can trigger this. Things we are familiar with can be classified as dangerous or safe. We can’t evaluate the unknowns because they may be dangerous and cost a lot of money, or they might not. The people who walk on the bridge can get killed if it is faulty. They can save money on transportation costs if the bridge is stable. It is not a fair risk/reward comparison.
Dale Carnegie, a marketing expert and a storyteller by trade, had to create a fiction to dispel people’s false beliefs regarding steel. The people were convinced that elephants don’t walk on unstable buildings. This was an accepted belief. They used this fictional belief in order to disprove the other fiction. The hired an elephant to show that it thought the bridge was stable. The bridge was stable when the elephant crossed it. own Their reality changed and their fiction about the bridge that they had been telling themselves was destroyed. The reality had not changed before or after the walk. However, to win over the public it was necessary for them to see and feel this new truth. Carnegie no longer had to explain. They were able to create an experience in people’s minds that was much more powerful than any words.
Dale’s defensive posture was created when he built the bridge and then, afterward, explained all its features to anyone who wanted to use it. It was his responsibility to prove that he had the right. He would not be believed even if he explained why he thought everyone was wrong. After they built the bridge, and people experienced it for themselves, those who didn’t use it were put on the defensive. They had to change the dynamic and explain why they did not walk across it. It’s not as simple as using the bridge. You have to go all the way around the river, or use boats in a circular motion to get from one end to the other.
Bitcoin is going to scale in the consciousness of the world by building applications that are useful for them and strategically marketing them. By building useful applications and marketing them strategically, we can shatter the old belief systems of people. Orange-pilling is a losing battle.
We should start building it and show people so that they will be put on defense, as to why they don’t use Bitcoin. Start attacking problems people face by using the Bitcoin system as a solution. Start experiencing Bitcoin’s full potential. Don’t limit it, or you are limiting yourself and not Bitcoin.
Let’s f*cking GO!
