I'm sure a lot of people play around with it, some make profit, some don't.
The ones making the most (and easiest) profit are the manipulators at the top of the chain . . . oh, and criminals apparently.

Is it fully regulated yet? Once it is, it will probably drift into the background . . like NFTs and Virtual Reality

It's not apparently, ransoms have been paid in crypto and much like nfts it can't be regulated because there's nothing behind it, at least VR was virtually there, that stuff, not so much.

I've got loads of it, don't expect to retire of the profits though, don't even bother checking on it

Re: Reform UK's chronicles

Can you still 'make' crypto with a good PC setup and 15 graphics cards?

Pretty sure if it was made legal tender the Government (any Government) wouldn't take kindly to people printing their own money


edit: maybe that's what those data enters are for, it's not saving data it's making crypto

I don't go to parks anymore, can't get up the steps to the top of the slide, I fall off the swings, and the roundabout is far too fast . . and just sitting on a bench watching others enjoying themselves leads to some disturbing looks from parents

yea but if you're digging under it you obviously do it in the middle of the night when all you have to worry about is smack heads and a certain type of lady

Why on Earth would you say that? Do you have any information to base that on?

It was always obvious to me that 3D would never take off while you needed those glasses to watch it. It was just novelty value to me.

NFTs and virtual reality are not going away.

Re: Reform UK's chronicles

I see we’re going for high quality debate and barbed comments again. It always happens when people are on dodgy ground with their arguments. I’ll leave you to bask in your reality for now.
