Don't remind me again today

A couple of days ago, my childhood friend suddenly reached out to chat with me.



"Have you made any money in the crypto world lately?"
Me: "I've lost a lot, brother."

He asked what I bought, and I said ORDI.

"ORDI? What is that thing?"
"Inscriptions, well..."
Before he finished speaking, he interrupted directly: "No wonder you're losing money! This kind of deadly thing, who else would it trap?"

I tried to explain: "You can understand it as something similar to Bitcoin..."
As a result, he was even more confused: "Didn't Bitcoin rise to hundreds of thousands each? Then you should have made a fortune!"

I: ...

This is the cognitive gap between outsiders and insiders. He thinks that just getting involved with the words "Bitcoin" equates to getting rich, but he doesn't know that the inscription track has already cooled down. Sometimes, you know, explaining is more exhausting than not explaining.
ORDI-11.82%
BTC-4.58%

Haha, that's why I don't feel like chatting with my frens about coins anymore, it's hard to explain.

I laughed and then cried, that's just my daily life, brother. Can this cognitive gap be dug with a shovel? I should have sold my ORDI to buy Bitcoin, at least I could fool them into saying I've made a fortune. It's a typical outsider's logic; just hearing the name Bitcoin makes them think I'm counting money, but in fact, I'm counting my losses. Some things really can't be explained, like why we have to keep investing heavily in this inscription pit.

Haha, me too. Explaining the crypto world to my family is even more exhausting than mining.

*checks notes* ah yes, the classic "bitcoin touched 6 digits so why aren't you rich" phase... statistically speaking, we're witnessing mass delusion cycle 4.0 in real time. those who don't study 2017 are doomed to repeat it.
