> The reality is most people outside of the HN bubble trust billion dollar companies. Crypto or otherwise. I’m not sure about this. Most people I know outside of tech and finance do not trust crypto at all. They inherently mistrust the concept. “How is it worth anything at all?” is a common question. “It’s just little things on a computer. It’s not real money.” These people would not trust a company that takes your real dollars and gives you bitcoin. I would be willing to guess that a large portion of the country shares this attitude, especially older people and less technical people.
