I suppose for me it’s different actually. I’m 23 and first heard of $BTC around the time I was 18. Though I didn’t understand nor did I know anyone who even knew what it was. Fast forward to the time I was 20 and it all clicked. I realized what real hard money was - $BTC. I knew inflation was an awful phenomenon. So I suppose about the time I starting getting real money to invest was the time I learned about debasement. Now that I think about I’ve spent my entire adult life thinking USD is garbage. My friends laugh when I say I can come up with a $100 bill if I needed to. They carry cash on them everyday, while I stack sats. Such strange times lol
