Did we fall for the crypto meme? What the fuck. How do people actually think we are at mainstream adoption when a majority of the public don’t even know about how the current monetary system works?
Not knowing how it works IS mainstream adoption. Think about people and computers. They're mainstream but heaven help a user if any fucking thing goes wrong.

i tried explaining monero to a stripper. she didnt see the point because she holds cash in safety deposit boxes and didnt have a problem that required monero. as soon as i said "federal reserve" i knew the point was never getting across.
David Ross
Many things to imply here. >Implying people will have to know how the monetary system works for crypto to reach mainstream adoption
>Implyign you didn't just sperg out a little bit and are now mad about it
>Ipmyling you explained it well
>Imyplnig she wanted to learn about something new she formerly didn't care or know about, on a first date
Zachary Hill
bring it up to a black stripper, they seem to be more anti-gov and crypto friendly.

Why are you assuming mainstream adoption means that people need to understand the technology behind things?
How many normies can explain how a computer or phone actually works?

Who has variable rate mortgages or car loans? I certainly don't...

I'm Canadian so mortgage need to be renewed every 5 years
Luis Morgan
i too find that tinder is a great way to meet conversation partners to lecture about cryptocurrencies and economics.

Bentley Evans
You don't talk about crypto on a date dopewad. Like what good was supposed to come from this?
Also "programmable money" is a better term than "smart contract "
Parker Gray

>hold reserves of fucking jew paper that she cleans begana cum inside in bisigal box jew unit also losing value >not storing monero keys since 2015 with one of these babies inside a fucking old obsolete computer that wont break its storage unit in 30 years when 1 satoshi buy u 30 lambo and vegana
when u can buy hookers om canada with crypto, expect some tinder roasties to know what crypto is. I think that it's a big red flag if I met a grill in cripto on tinder, slug gettin payed for selling her bob vegana for crypto full of AIDScoin. No Rico. No Bueno.
Funny part is, you have no fucking clue what you are talking about. He has equity and a new asset making him money while you are gonna claim you make 200k a year with 400k in crypto.
Lucas Perry
Ha serious, you go on tinder to talk to thots about crypto. That's not gonna get you laid brah Just tell her it's some magic internet money you buy cocaine with
How does a car work? Non-autsitic gearhead: put fuel in, motor combines fuel with air to make combustion, it turns some shit and that shot turns other shit until that shit turns your wheels.
Autistic gearhead: Well let's first talk about octane and then we can move to gear ratios and air to fuel ratios. 4hs later... bitch just looked at me like a retard.

OP better get “OK” with the thougt that in a couple of years you will get your asshole regulary creamed & pounded in a gay sauna cause thats gonna happen.
It's exactly how I describe bitcoin to people for the past 2 years. It's a giant to-big-to-fail pyramid scheme just like herballife. Just get out once you start hearing normal people talk about it. I honestly thought it was going to crash when it first hit 6k because I heard my local morning old men talk radio show talking about it when it hit 4k. I lmao. Oh boy it's about to sky rocket and then crash.
Elijah Jenkins
I’ve tried explaining concepts to people heaps of times. No one cares about what blockchains can do or will do. They just care whether it’ll make them rich.
