'Here are some videos' is not as compelling as an in person talk, especially for people in the boomer bracket. Perhaps one could argue that the concept of diminishing returns applies to new recorded Bitcoin content, but to try to argue that the same applies to in person lectures is IMO retarded.

In person talk leads to buy my book and subscribe to my channel Well while conferences are at all time highs and books / videos Education seems to be at all time lows… how many “bitcoiners” still hold their coins on exchanges?? Sadly from what our team has seen… the vast majority These conferences don’t seem to help Self custody Lightning usage Peer 2 peer Beating the hedge funds Etc All I hear is 21m hardest money ever in different pretty words But hey if people need it all at snail education speed by all means enjoy the repeated talks I just hope you at-least learned self custody

From what it sounds like, the talk wasn't aimed at established Bitcoiners (who are the more appropriate audience for the topics you mentioned). It sounds like a more fundamental 'here are some problems with the existing system of which you are a part, and here's how Bitcoin is uniquely suited to address those problems'. Perhaps it's hard for you to empathize with noobs because you've been in the space a long time, but these concepts are still going to be alien to people who haven't considered them, especially if they've been long successful in the legacy system.
