Six years ago, I tried to orange pill the first generation—nothing (classic boomer tangible vs intangible mindset).
Four years ago, I succeeded with the second generation.

Professionally, I never push people to buy Bitcoin directly. My approach is to educate and let them come to the decision themselves—especially with the older generation. Most of the time, I suggest using Bitcoin’s technology to optimize their business. That implementation creates impact, and that is what orange pills them.

With friends and family, am not pushy at all. On purpose.

Tonight, the owner and president reminded everyone how, when I first told him about Bitcoin, it was $16,000. He admitted, ‘I should have put at least a million in back then.’

In a side conversation, he told me he still struggles with Bitcoin’s intangibility. He couldn’t grasp how digital money can be “hard” or how mining works. I explained that #Bitcoin’s hardness lies in the energy required to create it—proof of work makes it truly hard money.

He then asked, ‘But can’t anyone mine and just create more Bitcoin?’

I walked him through the cap, the unchangeable code limiting supply, and the brilliance of the difficulty adjustment that ensures predictable issuance, no matter how many miners join. He listened carefully, without rejecting or dissing the idea—his usual response to concepts he doesn’t like.

By the end of the evening, the second generation expressed gratitude. The first generation couldn’t stop asking questions about a ‘future price crash entry point.’ Their regret was clear.

When saying goodbye, the president’s wife pulled me aside and asked me to convince her husband again. I told her the only truth that matters:
‘Everyone buys Bitcoin at the price they deserve.’
