Meet Learners Where They Are
- Experts often assume others share their knowledge, which blocks effective teaching.
- Anil says humility and meeting people where they are is essential to help them learn.
Learn Broadly Across Disciplines
- Bitcoin understanding requires interdisciplinary breadth, not extreme depth in one field.
- Anil recommends branching into economics, networks, energy, and systems to make sense of Bitcoin.
