we spend too much time explaining the HOW 

& not enough time explaining the WHY

I don't know why you see it like that. People have issues with banks and cards which are pretty simple mechanisms. Crypto is a whole different ball game difficulty wise. And most people want the least friction for things in order to use them. The why has to be astronomically big for people to try something.

the how is not a problem if you have a strong enough why

Because why isn't important until the HOW is easy enough to understand for the majority of the people. For the average person crypto is extremely complex, nobody cares about why if you don't even know what to do. I'm a pretty tech savvy person and I had to go through many hoops to understand things.

Knowing 'why' something matters can definitely make the 'how' a lot more interesting and relevant.

100% agree, which is why when I work with my teams I make sure they understand the theory and the why for what we’re doing.

You can’t solve for the why until you get a how first 🤔

Might start a "Vitalik for dummies" to convey this message

*Make Ethereum Cypherpunk again 101*

The how is at the forefront now. Infrastructure, scaling, prep to handle the inevitable deluge of normie SM users.

The initial why led to the current how, and will ultimately lead to mass adoption of what’s currently being built. SM owned 100% by its users. Cypherpunk ethos thru and thru.

That's why people don't understand eachother feelings anymore in life

Most people are obsessed with the solutions rather than the problem!

it’s not about how it’s about who

who has the most compelling why. they will win
