the orange pill theory?

(*) to orangepill: (verb) / tu’ ȯr-inj-‘pil/ : the act of explaining bitcoin in such a way that a pre-coiner gets it, and becomes a bitcoiner!
"Taking the Orange Pill" is when a person has become aware of the existence of Bitcoin, and then spends countless hours trying to disprove the Bitcoin thesis
once a person has exhausted all arguments and finally accepts the conclusion that Bitcoin will inevitably be the next (or simply an alternative) Global Reserve Asset, they are said to have been Orange Pilled

how to get orangepilled?

if you want to go down the bitcoin rabbit hole, i suggest you to start with the following readings:

  1. "The Bullish Case for Bitcoin" by Vijay Boyapati
  2. "The Bitcoin Standard: The Decentralized Alternative to Central Banking" by Saifedean Ammous
  3. "The Book of Satoshi: The Collected Writings of Bitcoin Creator" by Phil Champagne

  5. "Finding Signal In A Noisy World" by Jeff Booth

if you're more of a listener, listen to the Bitcoin Fundamentals episodes by "The Investor's Podcast Network", here's a spotify playlist for you, updated every wednesday

lookintobitcoin.com is also good place to start, both for learning but also starting with the technical analysis of the long term charts that really matter and how to read them

if you want to skip all the boring part of learning and get directly to the charts, start with these youtube channels: Bob Loukas & Benjamin Cowen
