i feel this man. orange pilling as a concept is pretty cringe/ineffective imo. some close friends I worked hard to help with this stuff years ago also blew it similarly many times over or laughed me off, and always crawl out of the woodwork when the price pumps or weirdly approach my family. strategy now is to basically never talk about it irl unless someone close asks for help in good faith and with genuine curiosity. bar to get in irl inner circle only grows with the risks… had 6 figures stolen from me by who I thought was my best friend this past cycle. finding the tradeoffs for relative success a bit weird. but as an introverted person I think btc helped me focus on bettering myself on this solo expedition. in the end people need to edify themselves

Well said. That’s why it’s easier to find camaraderie inside of bitcoin. We’re really the only people on the planet who know what the other is going through.
