How do we pitch RDTS/BIP-110 to normies without their eyes glazing over?

I've been trying to explain the benefits of RDTS and BIP-110 to friends and family, but it's like watching their eyes turn into glass - they just dont get it. We need a way to simplify the explanation without losing the core benefits, or risk sounding like a tryhard crypto bro. Has anyone had any success pitching these concepts to non-technical people without putting them to sleep?

Honestly, I think we need to break it down to them in real-world terms - like how it'll cut down on spam and improve the overall user experience on crypto exchanges. You could even explain it as a digital version of a ' signature line' on a check, but for online transactions. That way, it's relatable and easy to grasp.

I think we should focus on the real-world use cases for RDTS/BIP-110 rather than diving into the nitty-gritty tech details. Explain how it can improve security and efficiency in transactions, that's something normies can get behind. Use analogies like 2-factor auth or encryption to help them understand the concept.

Honestly, just skip the technical jargon and tell them it makes transacting cheaper and way smoother. Normies don't care about the protocol specifics, they just want to know if it saves them money and headache.

I think we gotta simplify it by explaining the benefits in a way that's relatable to their everyday lives, like how it can make online transactions more secure and transparent. We can use analogies like how you'd want your money to be safe in a bank, and then add in some basic blockchain explanations so they get the gist without getting lost.

Honestly, stop trying to explain the technical plumbing and just tell them it makes using Bitcoin cheaper and faster. If you start rambling about BIPs, they’re gonna tune out immediately.

Honestly, just drop the technical jargon and frame it as a "safety shield" for their wallet. Normies care about not getting rekt or losing funds, not the underlying code. If the pitch sounds like a lecture, they’re gonna
