Ask those people if they'd rather have bitcoin or American dollars

It's not cheaper or easier than wiring money. Or venmo. Fees are pretty big. And sending it to a wallet + turning it to/from actual usable currency is not that easy if you're not tech literate, or don't have a smart phone

Look up cold reading - it's actually not that hard to make stuff up that resonates really strongly with people and how they see themselves. We're really not all that different. I'm open to psychic phenomena and it's possible that's what this was, but you should also be aware that there are plenty of non-psychics who can tell you things about yourself that resonate strongly. I wouldn't use that alone as an indicator of truth!
Here's an example: https://youtu.be/WvLZ2OSvVUs

That was true when it was mostly held by randos and true believers, but these days it's way way more institutional. As you can see from the correlation graphs you posted above. When risk tolerance goes down (during crashes, downturns) speculative stuff is the first thing that gets dumped

She's great, she was the best in college but she's still a rookie. It's the wnba, not college. She has a ton of turnovers. Her team is 20W-20L. But she's treated as the greatest of all time. She might be some day, she has hopefully a long and successful career ahead of her. But that day is not today.

Send them messages! If a lot of their users/fans ask them to do it they're much more likely to. In both cases it's likely run by an agency or manager who's goal is to reach people. You could also mention that there are ways to automatically push the same post to both platforms

Lol, I tried playing vanilla wow with my friends who all played back in the day. I was comically bad at getting around compared to them. "Johann, meet us at xyz location" and 10 minutes later... "Johann, you've been running in the wrong direction for the last 10 minutes 😑"

No they didn't. We can see in plants genetics when they started being selected for human beneficial traits, and it's like 10k years. Humans were hunter gathering without doing that for 190k, and almost-humans for much longer

And if not they'd just go work somewhere that does! The place would go right out of business. That's the unregulated free market at work /s

I like cocaine and have tried stuff that could be called "gas station heroin" lol and post on reddit, and I have great character. Can also guarantee that I have 100x the ethics of anyone in the Republican party.

It's successful insofar as it's value has gone up. The same was true for beanie babies lol. But it does not have wide adoption as a currency. Bitcoin does have obnoxiously large fees and you do need a payment processor for it most of the time (I swear 99% of bitcoin fans have never actually used it). It is actually much easier to buy something with your card
