This is pretty helpful and you made it really easy for people. Good post!
I found it interesting the way you said how, in 2011, it took you a while to take your friend seriously. That's exactly what happened to me. I just wrote a post about it.
This is probably why a lot of people aren't into crypto yet. Their friends and family tell them things, but I guess they are waiting for the TV to say it? I don't know.
