In another breakthrough finding, a ten-year, federally funded research project undertaken by a consortium of universities has today announced that their data indicates that the median survival time of chickens who are guarded by foxes is less than five percent of that of chickens that are guarded by chicken farmers.

Bitcoin, the tulip bulb trading of the 21st century. At least with tulip bulbs, you had a physical asset you could see and hold.

Blockchain technology seems to have some promising uses.
But “investing” in bitcoins? I just don’t get it.

Bitcoin is that Google play card you buy in the store so your grandson can buy “skins” for his avatar. Useless.

“At least with tulip bulbs, you had a physical asset you could see and hold.”
Most of the trading was futures contracts. Contracts that never delivered actual bulbs.

One day not long ago, I considered buying a chunk of Ethereum, because it was involved in blockchain development, and right before I pushed the buy button, an emergency popped up. I think the wife said I needed to go buy catfood.
I did the chore and figured I’d make the plunge later in the week. Well....the bottom fell out and plunged the cryptocurrency market into chaos that week and saved me from making one of the most stupid investment decisions of my stupid investment life.
Yaaaay! Thank you, cat.

Just like bitcoin itself.
To: lucky american
Looks like I’m the only guy here that has has used it. Do use it whenever it is available, which is very rare. It has obviously been cracked down on. Last year 2 of my banks declined transactions to my bitcoin account (got it turned back on after phone calls), and I had to load a drivers license to use account. I do like when a bitcoin transaction clears (about 20 sec) there isn’t a CC number lingering around to be stolen.

A dollar says that China and North Korea have buildings full of their best cryptographers and mathematicians with all the computing power they can muster, working tirelessly to subvert international blockchain currency traiding for their respective states.
