Most people won’t spend 20 hours learning Bitcoin, even if that work could pull retirement forward by 20 years. The average person will... Binge a season Argue in comment sections Scroll for hours But won’t spend the time to understand the hardest money we’ve ever had. That gap is the opportunity. Don't be average. Do the 20 hours. Bitcoin

It’s not money. Just the most en vogue method to get rich quick, although it’s rapidly losing its luster.

Strangest get-rich-quick scheme ever. Step one is 20 hours of homework. Step two is a decade of patience. Most people quit at step one. Case in point.

Read Section 4. The majority decision is the chain with the greatest proof-of-work. That applies to competing valid branches, not separate protocols. BTC is that chain.

Biggest challenge Bitcoin faces IMO. Lazy society getting less and less curious

Agreed. Curiosity is getting rare. The ones who stay curious get there early.

And thankfully so. Because when most people actually get it, it’ll be over $1m. As they say, everyone gets Bitcoin at the price they deserve.

People fear change even if it is positive for them. Citizens and leaders alike knew the system was failing but continued to pretend it worked because no alternative seemed imaginable.

So true. Most people stay put until the old system forces them to move.

You can learn what it is in 30 minutes. That's not most people. Understanding why it matters takes longer. That's the 20 hours.

It legitimately doesn’t even take 20 hours. It’s so sad to see

The problem with these people is that they are too stupid to understand. They cannot be helped.

Some, maybe. Most just were never taught how money works. The public schools are a real problem.

20 hours is probably less time than most people spend arguing about bitcoin before learning how it works

You're right. Most people argue about it for years before spending a weekend learning it.

Same here. Best 20 hours you'll ever spend, and it keeps paying you back.

True. Study builds the conviction. Courage is acting on it before everyone else does.
