Why do people continue to remain so skeptical about Bitcoin (except of being stupid)?

Probably because people (like you) keep trying to "sell them" on Bitcoin. When is the last time someone tried to sell you on the idea of "drinking water" or "breathing air"? Probably never because only things that people DON'T ACTUALLY NEED are sold/advertised.

I swear, maxis who think bitcoin needs evangelists are doing more harm than good. You should wait until people ask you about BTC, then tell them to fuck off, don't buy it, more for me!

It took me going to flight training, learning how an internal combustion engine works, learning how a gas turbine works, then becoming an airline pilot, then flying long distances over the ocean...

To really appreciate Bitcoin and its ability to send energy over the internet. Had I never learned how to fly... I'm not sure I would appreciate Bitcoin so much.

Basically it took years and quite a bit of education in the 'real world.'

I taught over and over again emergency procedures, how to get the engine restarted, what is fuel economy, off-airport landings, aircraft range and performance... I fell in love with aerodynamics and energy management which is what flying a plane is all about.

That took for me years and a unique set of experiences some of which frankly almost killed me. People who haven't... experienced those things I can see why they don't get Bitcoin it's just a shame the 'leaning process' doesn't speed up.

I'm still of the belief we'll have a billion + people using it but it will take a long time. Thank you for all you do.
