tsch, i got a mail from japan last week on the mt. Gox case ... all in japanese i didnt even know they were still on it ... 

probably if i wanted to file to get my 1.5 mined bitcoin back i had there , so i can "maybe" get it at the rates back then , about $500 i guess .. (i should say cpu- and gpu- mined ... i burned cards on that ... am i that old, omg?)

some people holding millions were playing with lego back then werent they ![lol3.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmeKuftmsvoZWinjBRLQZZMmDqHS47jiWnG81w2Qx2nUrb/lol3.png)

which is an edit here , which makes me doubt again the validity of the idea of storing every single edit directly on the chain, seeing as this can't really help the volume over time but i'm not the tekkie either so what do i know

you're right, most people got into it today cos its fashionable, like "blockchain" , or "a.i." or the other magic words from Hogwarts

But there's also the problem of every bum on every corner pouring out their own bumcoin which cant possibly do anything but drive the overall value of the "main" coins down because there's plenty of money stored in ... can i call it "micro" amounts of these obscure coins that will probably never see their fifth birthday

and the advent of the actual bankers going as far as patenting bits of blockchain technology probably aint helping too ...

ive been watching my little plankton vote go down and down and down as my steem power goes up and up and up ... i think it dropped like 2 cents in a week ... maybe not much for you but for me thats about 33% ? i might not have the exact but i dont think its far off ... from all i see, the increase in accounts over the last months simply cant mean its all plankton selling off the sbd as they get it ... this has to be one or more major players, or simply sabotage by the up and coming to get market space ... EOS ... TRON, NEO ?

there's a few i could think of who would benefit from "making room" lol

if Nakamoto were dead he'd be turning in his grave ... ICO's ... "central authorities" (well thats what EOS calls itself , right?)

*Satoshi weeps*

and i'm not making a lot of money here this way hahah
