But crypto is consistently intimidating and makes me feel like I'm missing something important and I am too afraid to ask questions - or when I do, the questions aren't tied to anything meaningful enough for me, so I forget and don't actually learn.

There's something about crypto that feels anti the way I typically learn, and I don't know exactly what it is. I have trouble "feeling" it like I feel other vaguely technical skills I've learned, like webflow or survey design. It's pretty disappointing cause I really love crypto.

Crypto = cryptography. I'm guessing what you mean to be saying is cryptocurrency? Not the same cultures, really. Crypto is math nerds. Cryptocurrency is more about soft anarchism and rejection of systems of control, but for no real understood purpose. Just.. for the hell of it.

You're not seeing any norms becuase there are none. There is no single "crypto culture" just like there is no single human culture. It's just a bunch of disparate people betting on digital money. E.g. "Why so hard to get human culture? Been to a conference, worked on a startup."

Because you've already left one cult, so you have a natural resistance getting into another. This is prob a good thing.

Most people don't understand money, but we're trained to have a giant blind spot over it so that we can trust it anyway, since the value of money comes from trust. AFAICS, many people into cryptocurrencies understand money a little better, but not nearly as much as they think.

It’s the same mentality as doomsday preppers, gun nuts, & sovereign citizens. They’re deeply suspicious of authority, supremely confident in their own intelligence, resourcefulness & resilience, skeptical of those outside their community, and unsympathetic to the social contract.

Guilty as charged. But that doesn't make us wrong :)
