Even all that is attributable to nothing in the real world. Number always goes up. If parallel Earth in Bitchcoin alpha worldline can go down and bleed into our perception, when the wormholes are set to “off,” it is impossible for number go down. In the Bitchcoin universe prime it is 1986 and and PoW just forced a Soviet reactor to meltdown trying to send the price down. Of course the hero was My Win3.1 Rig, who threw his Ham Sandwiches into the reactor to SCRAM it and then number started back up as only natural.

If this doesn’t make sense sorry. I only get a little monitored computer time and I am in the process of phone posting and getting my meds back working again while I wean from four and then add two new ones to my day.

plus it’s offensively inaccurate. autistic folk arent typically obsessed with money. we’re more likely not to care about it at all. the only possible source of interest in bitcoin is the cryptography, and there’s nothing special there. they didn’t even roll their own ffs.

no, cryptocurrency is for libertarians, get-rich-quickers, ascended goldbugs, and other varieties of idiot. dunning-krugerrand is the perfect name.

Promotion Idea for Bitcoin - Gamer tags (self.Bitcoin)
submitted an hour ago by H1gH_EnD

Hey guys,

I'm sure we have plenty of gamers in this community. I was thinking about what I can do to promote Bitcoin. While playing a session of CSGO I thought, that it could be a great idea if I and more people choose Gamer tags that include "Bitcoin", BTC or something similar.

The better your stats, the more people will notice you and you will perhaps get some people curious and trigger them to do some research in the end. With gamers we might also be talking about a target group that is easily convinced of the power of Bitcoin.

What do you think?

In Canada, poutine (possibly derived from a slang term for "mess") was the name for pudding-like dishes and desserts, and still is in Louisiana and Acadia. It only comes to mean the cheese curds and gravy thing in the early 80s, and that meaning eclipsed all the others. Now we just call pudding, "pudding"

Another fun food etymology is fudge. The sense of fudge as "make up on the spot" in reference to records is the original meaning. It gets applied to the food in the early 20th century America as the dessert recipes were just something "fudged up on the spot".

csgo already has plenty of people that put Russian esport gambling sites in their names for reasons so likely no one would notice at all.

That and bitcoin pretty much is Russian esport gambling, just with less regulation, oversight, and price stability of virtual objects.

i guess this approach worked pretty well for all the current major religions

well, this approach plus a bit of putting people to the sword and burning their houses down if they refuse to convert, but bitcoin will struggle on those fronts until its advocates finish mastering the blade and persuading toaster manufacturers to add bitcoin miners to their products
