I also meet the type of people you mentioned. What attracts their interest is the monetary prospect of the project, but when it comes to details, they almost have zero knowledge.
In my case, this reminds me of the years I spent becoming familiar with the lingo of one school of economics. It took me 5 years. It's not a formal study, more of a self-directed learning. In the case of crypto, though I will be entering my second year this August, I could say that my knowledge of the space is still very small, perhaps, 5 to 10%, and that only concerns Hive. As for other crypto projects, I am still basically clueless.
