I like our talk too :)
You are right about a family. That is a huge problem, but I think it is better not to force them into your world, they eventually will take your side if you show them that your way really works.
However you still miss that crypto is just a technology. Not a money, not a kind of fiat, whatever. It could be used as money, or as casino coins, but that not make it money or casino coins.
Crypto is a way to securely and reliably save and store transactions, i.e. "10 units was transferred from address 123456 to address 654321". And that's all. That units and addresses could be anything you want. And you could easily start your own crypto if you wish.
The same is with cash. If you have some parallel society, you could use anything as cash. F.e. I have a bag (literally) with old Russian banknotes from the times of hyperinflation. They are still have a necessary feature for cash - it is hard to fake them. And they cost absolutely nothing now. It is just a bag with painted paper. But anytime I could share them with my friends and we could easily use them as our cash for exchange of food, service, work, whatever we have for a trade.
