Topic: Bitcoin isn't complicated but the fiat system is! - page 4. (Read 629 times)

A child who hasn't learned how to ride a bicycle will tell you that it's very difficult, while the one who has been riding for months will tell you it's very simple. We all came into this world to find fiat currency as a major/general means of exchange. We had no choice but to accept it, and we didn't even bother to understand its technicalities and everything that happens behind the scenes. If I were to conduct a survey by presenting the mapping that appears in this thread to 20 different people, I don't think one person could explain everything. Isn't there already a complication?.

Personally, I don't understand everything written on that map, but I can choose to understand it just by my decision.

Just as Bitcoin has its own technicalities, fiat currencies also have their own, filled with corruption and centralization that only the issuers of these currencies can see, which is clearly unlike Bitcoin.

Bitcoin has its own technicalities, I won't deny that fact, but that doesn't stop anyone from learning how to perform a basic transaction by just copying and pasting an address, then inputting a specific amount. Moreover, some wallets are as simple as possible making it very easy to learn.

So, I think those people who think Bitcoin is complicated are only referring to the technical part, which I don't think they must learn if they are not willing to. Just learn the basics, like how to buy, make transfers, etc., because that's what we literally do with fiat currency.

Let's stop paying attention to these people who are not willing to learn, just like a child who is not willing to learn how to ride a bicycle, but make a complain of it's difficulty.

Although fiat known to us since the time we we born, I hardly know anything about it until the time I read the history of how money started. Which even in the old times, we were using some sort of stuff that is rare to acquire to be used as currency.

But I seriously agree that Bitcoin is not complicated. I have a living proof of it right here https://x.com/RudyHavenstein/status/1806032936111685780

A common man is born into the fiat system and is taught by his parents, friends and colleagues how to use it. Bitcoin is still new if we compare it with fiat and is slowly getting adopted. Give it some time and it will be simple to understand in the future than in the current time. The children of El Salvador will be far much educated with Bitcoin and the tech than those children in counties where Bitcoin is still a mystery for most of the population.

Bitcoin is too complicated" ~US Dollar user

I just want to show this to whoever says Bitcoin technology is too complicated for a common man and then ask them to explain this which they have been using day to day and whether any of 'em got any idea what is going on behind their preferred method
