also, crypto is the only reason I have access to life saving medical treatment (HRT)
you can’t really hack crypto besides maybe a 51% attack
I was one of the lucky ones who bought bitcoin so I could buy acid on the internet. Years later I put a down payment on a house with the change that I forgot about. DARE was wrong.
I played around with it for a bit in 08/09. Got a few coins, but didn’t keep going with it and lost the wallet at some point.
2008? are you Satoshi?
yeah that’s an easy lie to call out. Genesis block was 2009. So 2008 is already a no go. And very few people would have even known about it… let alone get their hands on the original software let alone mine something.
or you know he just doesn’t remember the exact year because it was fucking 15 years ago.
Don’t attribute to malice what is adequately explained by spotty memory
If you were in that early, you’d know.
Way back when Bitcoin was first being talked about on Slashdot, I mined for a while. On my processor. For like a month. I got about 1/20 of a Bitcoin out of it.
And then I lost interest for a long time. And then it became clear blockchain is an infinite self-similar fractal of scams and ponsis.
I haven’t done anything with my 1/20 of a Bitcoin. I don’t have any expectation it will go up or down. If the bubble takes back off and inflates so much 1/20 of a Bitcoin becomes life-changing money, I might try to sell it. Maybe if a bunch of crypto-owning crypto-skeptics organize a mass sell event to drive it to zero, I’ll take part. Otherwise, it’ll stay where it is for the forseeable future.
Ironic that someone like me who believes wholeheartedly that blockchain is snake oil is such a model hodler.
Bitcoin, not CrYPtO… fucking noobs
