Every time I speak about Bitcoin to someone "new" I find them dismissive, jsut as I was the first time. It's the exact way we are programmed here in the West to react to something that's different. There is a major movement of denial that people are having to confront with what is going on. It's going to be rough, it's going to get a little ugly but it's eventually going to happen. The current financial system is so weak and fragile, it's just going to take a small amount of doubt in the population to realize that they are in trouble and things will start to move faster and faster until it tips.
