Yeah, that stood out big time. He seems like any random guy who just wants to chat. That's cool. Maybe it was just the fad subject that warmed him up, but I don't think so.
Aged amazingly. Even the bit about not being able to come up with a dumber name than “Deep Onion” led to the bit over the name “Monkey Jizz”. This is truly one of the timelines.
So, as I said to others in this comment section, "Deep onion" seems like a dumb name only for people that don't know enough about the web. Nearly all deep web sites needs Tor browser to access. The logo of tor Browser is an onion, for it's a reference to the deeper layers of the internet you get access to thanks to it. One of the major use of crypto-currencies is to buy things on the deep web, using tor. So "deep onion" is nothing more than a very logical name. I'll give you that Monkey Jizz is a dumbfuckery that has no fucking reason to exist.
My wife and I were in London staying in an AirBnB a few years ago now. Hosts invited us to have some wine with them before we went out for dinner, so we did. They started telling us about this cryptocurrency they'd both quit their jobs to start doing full time and how "it was going to change the world". We sat with them, asked some questions and then had to leave for our dinner reservation. As soon as we were in the lift, I turned to my wife and said "Bitconneeeeeeeeeeeeeect!" and we both pissed ourselves laughing. These two sounded exactly as daft and ludicrous as that guy did
what are you talking about? It did not age well at all. I had 18 bitcoin that I bought in 2017 for about 600$. I remember being up over 100% when this video aired and I sold them all for over 50k couple of years ago. I prettying much made 800k after paying taxes on a 10k investment and bought a house that I am renting out.
@@bonbonjovi4836 if you haven’t been paying attention the crypto market took a massive nose dive I’ve the past few months because their value is based on nothing. It was hysterical to watch all of the people that drove the price of things like GPU’s and processors through the roof loose loads of money when the market crash and to watch the flail away trying to convince people to continue buying in to drive the price back up.
Did it today because I needed some papers for an office. Had no idea what I was lining up for, but I didn't want to be late to my next task so I stepped in line ... I needed to be in that line it turns out, but had no reason why until later. FOMO is a strong force. I've done it when I'm aware but like... Sometimes it happens
Tacet the Terror I think it’s great that he’s talking about being careful and responsible with your money, don’t buy into anything you don’t understand. Having said that people should really take the time to understand the technology. He made some good points but also some misinformed ones. Bitcoin is kind of like the dot com bubble, where people got in without understanding why the technology is so revolutionary, and caused a massive surge and and equally massive collapse. But look at the biggest companies in the world now, and where you would be had you held on to some of those companies stocks. You know, small companies like Google, Amazon, or Facebook. I think blockchain technology (the ones that are free and open) will do for finance and trade what the internet did for information, but you gotta do the research for yourselves before you invest in anything.
@Peng Bian: of those three companies you mention only Amazon actually had public stock during the dot com bubble. Google had its IPO 2004 and facebook in 2012. But yeah it will be a new technology we will use, but invest in companies/coins that have a real and achievable goal and don't invest more than you can afford to lose.
For a second I thought they actually got the bit connect guy to come on and talk about how ppl should use caution, all because his voice sounded so sad when he went "hey hey heeeeyyyyy" from behind the stage.
One thing I've noticed about John Oliver, basically every one of his episodes that aren't about a specific event (and even sometimes then), they stay relevant for YEARS. Sometimes when I'm listening I have to go down to the description and see when it came out because it's way more relevant than it should be.
I still remember going to work with that one dude who went on and on about bitcoin. One time I had enough and just clapped back: "yes yes, you got lucky but let's not forget a whole lot of other people who's in financial ruins over crytocurrency. Now shut the f up and let me work." He kinda stoped talking to me altogether after that 😬
When John Oliver said that almost anyone could create a cryptocurrency, I was dead sure that by the end of the episode, he would introduce a cryptocurrency that they created, just like he did with televanlegism.
That would probably go against the message of this video, which is "be careful and don't mindlessly throw your money into cryptocurrency..." because then a bunch of John's fans would very likely mindlessly throw their money into John's crytocurrency.
Ah Dan. I'm curious why they hate him so much. I guess he's just that much of a dick. The way John says, "I hate your belt more than anything in that photo" cracks me up and feels, ... genuine. I wonder if he still works there?

DogeCoin being taken seriously, Scamcoin getting $70 million in an hour, NFT’s. Yeah, it’s time for a part 2 of this topic Johnny O needs to cover again.
everyone in the crowd laughs while working 9-5 jobs and our 5k investments 4 years ago are already worth over a million. our lives are completely changed and they still laugh.
@@flowmastaflam Cool, still not sustainable when the main source of value is other people buying in to a product that essentially doesn't exist. 5 years from now your multimillionaire investment could get worth pennies.
If it bottoms around 19k that's a hell of a lot higher than the last time it dropped a few years ago. Next Rally will probably break 100k, John might be a year or 5
It’s pretty cringe to use audience laughter to make home viewers more likely to laugh-especially when it’s politically driven content. I know they’re gonna bring it back but I really hope they don’t
nah, he got it right the first time, he was positive about BTC in a funny way... its even worse now, look at all the meme coins, its 99% retards buying this shit. degen gamblers.
What this guy said, but slightly more polite. It was, and still is an interesting technology, but to proclaim it as the "money of the future" at such an early time was overhyped and has led to exactly what the Bitconnect guy was demonstrating. Now you have people dropping six figures on cheap repetitive graphics on the premise that it's "unique", despite the longstanding invention called Ctrl-C.
There's really know need to. Crypto is here to stay. Tons of shit coins, just like there are tons of shit businesses. The best will rise to the top. Some will win, most will lose. Best of luck. Do your own research. Don't invest more than you can afford to loose. FNA
Investing in crypto is just gambling. There is no reason to think it will be the currency of the future. I'm just surprised there are not more pump and dumps. Just look at the squid coin. Long term it seems crypto is not a good investment.
I was NOT expecting Dan Gurewitch to show up in a "stock" photo. I'm glad to know he's got a good gig, the college humor sketches were pretty hilarious!
I'm surprised he didn't mention how taxing Bitcoin is on our ecosystem. It needs so much electricity that it's getting exponentially worse for our environment. Thanks for sharing this amazing information.
@@nedcurfman3486 bitcoin by design is energy wasting to use, particularly mining uses so much electricity and computing power it’s horrible for the environment
@@jessefehr7249 That's a misleading comparison. You should be comparing Bitcoin processing to a similar transaction processor like Visa since that's what it is trying to replace. And it's a well-documented fact that each Bitcoin transaction consumes roughly 1.5 million times more energy than a traditional Visa transaction and that ratio will only get worse as the blockchain grows. Ever wondered why no one has ever implemented distributed linked lists to record data?? Because it is quite literally the most inefficient way of storing data. Bitcoiner's don't care that they are burning the world so long as they make a few bucks off it.
I'm already using it in real life. Whenever I see someone do something intended as awesome but actually awkward, I say "to quote the great John Oliver... cool"
So, why should I buy some bitcoin? "BITCONNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECT! BIT COOOOOOOOOOOONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECT!" Wow, very compelling argument.
What is absolutely hilarious, is that on Johns orders I googled Brock Pierce Scandal, the entire first page is about how Brock got kicked off EOS as a result of this video. Love you John

Inventing a new currency that would probably draw a TON of interest is an entirely different level from inventing a fake church or SuperPAC. It would actually be a thing, and people would want to use it, and all of a sudden Oliver and Co. is stuck managing a cryptocurrency until the end of time.

No its shit. People invest their nest egg and people usually aren't willing to lose that. You shouldn't gamble more than you are willing to lose. On things like crypto and individual stocks.
Seriously, if you treat it like a bet on the big sports final, or a bet with your colleague over who will win the Oscar for Best Director, i.e. as a game to spend money on and have fun, rather than an investment, then you'll probably be fine. Of course some people also get addicted to gambling and spend more than they can afford to lose, but that's a bigger issue.

Don’t invest more than you’re willing to lose! This goes for any investment. Even if it’s almost guaranteed to go up, getting less in addition to is always better than ending up worse off
Moot Juh me too - like when they made the Make Donald Drumph Again..... And they sold like over 25,000 - and sold them "at cost" so made no profit. At least this time they could've planned ahead more and give any profits to charity.
@JakeAndBake seriously. when it does crash, or at the very least fall enough that GPU mining stops being profitable, the flood of used high end enthusiast cards will be insane. I just don't know if I'd trust a card that has been run 24/7 at 100% load for such a long time, even if it's only $200-$300 for a 1080/Ti
People really missed the point of this video. He literally says that blockchain has potential but that is also can be abused. That’s clear and is not anti technology or a statement disparaging the technology, it’s just a warning to make intelligent investment decisions and to make sure you aren’t taken advantage of.
Blockchain is the technology, crypto currency is a currency and doesn't have anything to do with the technology other than being traded in it. Blockchain is good and revolutionizing, crypto is fairytail-money that has value because a lot of people like fairytails. Tokens have expected value, coins have limited real value, the technology is seperate from those two and has real application.
@@MartinSlow Money is fairy tail money. Once, it was backed by something, its weight in gold. Now the only value placed in our paper bills is because we place it there. This is why economies collapse when too much money is printed (example Germany post WWI) and also why the value of a country's money fluctuates so much compared to other companies.
Funny when he brought up how blockchains were impossible to hack..... that is before the ancient primordial art of tricking someone into giving you their login credentials returned from the depths
Which is increasingly relevant if you heard anything like Earth 2. Someone legit said, "YOU WILL ALWAYS LOSE MONEY WHEN INVESTING". Sure, but if you lost 1,000 and get 10 dollars in returns, that means you're the idiot.
I thought maybe the joke of the image was that it was Dan O'Brien of Cracked and they used Dan Gurewitch of his old rival comedy site but apparently they both work for John Oliver now.
Definitely needs a follow-up - preferably one that includes shilling crypto influencers on RUclips and how they're going to end up in prison if they continue this way.
They will not end up in prison b/c authorities are giving crypto holders what they want - currency with no intervention. They sit back and laugh their butts off when people lose $$. They are not going to give up a tool in their economic arsenal - national currency. If they protected investors, they would legitimize crypto. You are on your own - like you wanted. Good luck.
@@Galworld761 There is a lot of noise being made about the bad actors in this space. In my opinion it's a matter of time before they set a precedent and someone ends up in jail. People do want some degree of regulation in the space and it will come as the assets class matures.

Someone put it this way when asked to explain bitcoin concisely: "Imagine if leaving your truck running 24/7 produced solved sudokus that you can trade for heroin".
Andrew Harper Ignore him, this is not the only thing he has gotten wrong about crypto. Also, Sudoku is a math and logic puzzle. It may not be on the same complexity you would get with other math puzzles. And yes the metaphor is accurate. Or in a less abstraction Imagine if you left your computer on all day that produces and ‘prints’ solved math problems that you can trade for anything that has also been agreed to have value. In this case, the completed math problem is like doing a ledger in finance and can be pretty liquid. Crypto trades for crypto quite easily and only some cryptocoins have addressed to even add the financial markets into this bubble. But bitcoin can go for anything in the 1500 list, generally. Pretty sure I am throwing in more economics and finance into this but yeah the metaphor is spot on.
@@incognito3402 The funny thing is that they are both right yet completely incapable of seeing they are saying exactly the same thing in different words and are arguing fiercely over meaningless semantics!

Well he posted this when btc was about ten thousand. So he obviously wasn't going to post a follow-up when it was near 70k. Maybe now that it's only doubled in value since he posted this, he may consider without looking too wrong.

I completely lost it when he yelled out responsibility with that much enthusiasm. xD
Tacet the Terror I think it’s great that he’s talking about being careful and responsible with your money, don’t buy into anything you don’t understand.
Having said that people should really take the time to understand the technology. He made some good points but also some misinformed ones. Bitcoin is kind of like the dot com bubble, where people got in without understanding why the technology is so revolutionary, and caused a massive surge and and equally massive collapse. But look at the biggest companies in the world now, and where you would be had you held on to some of those companies stocks. You know, small companies like Google, Amazon, or Facebook.
I think blockchain technology (the ones that are free and open) will do for finance and trade what the internet did for information, but you gotta do the research for yourselves before you invest in anything.
Tacet the Terror My catholic girlfriend used to do that when she made me put it in her ass.
Peng Bian Eh... I might not be as optimistic as you but I still agree that people should be responsible and think before they invest.
@Peng Bian: of those three companies you mention only Amazon actually had public stock during the dot com bubble. Google had its IPO 2004 and facebook in 2012.
But yeah it will be a new technology we will use, but invest in companies/coins that have a real and achievable goal and don't invest more than you can afford to lose.
same here, I'm still laughing :-)
For a second I thought they actually got the bit connect guy to come on and talk about how ppl should use caution, all because his voice sounded so sad when he went "hey hey heeeeyyyyy" from behind the stage.

This aired 4 years ago and it never gets old. still true to the end of 2022
One thing I've noticed about John Oliver, basically every one of his episodes that aren't about a specific event (and even sometimes then), they stay relevant for YEARS. Sometimes when I'm listening I have to go down to the description and see when it came out because it's way more relevant than it should be.
I still remember going to work with that one dude who went on and on about bitcoin. One time I had enough and just clapped back: "yes yes, you got lucky but let's not forget a whole lot of other people who's in financial ruins over crytocurrency. Now shut the f up and let me work." He kinda stoped talking to me altogether after that 😬

♡♡♡
Yes, because the bullshit came back, bigtime!
When did this aire on Television?
Now it's 57k...
When John Oliver said that almost anyone could create a cryptocurrency, I was dead sure that by the end of the episode, he would introduce a cryptocurrency that they created, just like he did with televanlegism.
They have learned that that was a bad idea.
Dude he's trying to become prime minister of Italy.... he can only do so much at one time lol
I'm sure they asked Dan to make one, but he read the script to this episode first.
That would probably go against the message of this video, which is "be careful and don't mindlessly throw your money into cryptocurrency..." because then a bunch of John's fans would very likely mindlessly throw their money into John's crytocurrency.
YourMomz07 The italian elections are over ;)
I would've lost it if Dan came out at some point to try to defend himself and John's just like "NO. GET BACKSTAGE, DAN. I HATE YOU."
delectable M they hate him because he used to work for college humor
I thought he’d be the one to come out, too.
Ah Dan. I'm curious why they hate him so much. I guess he's just that much of a dick. The way John says, "I hate your belt more than anything in that photo" cracks me up and feels, ... genuine. I wonder if he still works there?
@@joseph-zoramcbride4029 I have this headcanon that Dan served Beef Gurewitch to the staff, causing them to hate him.

He did joke they were "jpegs of monkeys, by and for dipshits!" Not sure a full NFT episode will come up but at least we know where he stands-
Keegan Michael Key is the literal Everyman. He’s played basically all ethnicities, all accents, and even often times women and children.

There should be a sequel to this video..

Bring it on, Johnny.
everyone in the crowd laughs while working 9-5 jobs and our 5k investments 4 years ago are already worth over a million. our lives are completely changed and they still laugh.
Dan is now a multimillionaire lmao
@@flowmastaflam Cool, still not sustainable when the main source of value is other people buying in to a product that essentially doesn't exist.
5 years from now your multimillionaire investment could get worth pennies.
Keegan Michael Key is a national treasure appearing a show hosted by a man who is also a national treasure. LOVED this segment!
john is british so an imported treasure
I did not expect him to pop out at the end

If it bottoms around 19k that's a hell of a lot higher than the last time it dropped a few years ago. Next Rally will probably break 100k, John might be a year or 5
It’s basically going to be fine as long as people are stupid enough to put money into something that isn’t real. So it’s going to be fine, forever.
Yeah yeah it's failing and global warming isn't real correct?
God it's so strange watching these old episodes with laughter now. I'm so used to his new format.
It's true, but i kinda want the old format back
All they did was turn off their laugh track
It’s pretty cringe to use audience laughter to make home viewers more likely to laugh-especially when it’s politically driven content.
I know they’re gonna bring it back but I really hope they don’t
I love seeing this comment on every one off these old videos. Gets me everybody🙄

The Cardi B joke was on point
Considering the way Cardi B used to make money, his joke didn't age well
@@arkoisagoodboy I think the notion that anyone would/should look to Cardi B for financial advice has remained just as absurd.
Do another episode on Crypto now. Would be a good follow-up
nah, he got it right the first time, he was positive about BTC in a funny way... its even worse now, look at all the meme coins, its 99% retards buying this shit. degen gamblers.
What this guy said, but slightly more polite. It was, and still is an interesting technology, but to proclaim it as the "money of the future" at such an early time was overhyped and has led to exactly what the Bitconnect guy was demonstrating.
Now you have people dropping six figures on cheap repetitive graphics on the premise that it's "unique", despite the longstanding invention called Ctrl-C.
There's really know need to. Crypto is here to stay. Tons of shit coins, just like there are tons of shit businesses. The best will rise to the top. Some will win, most will lose.
Best of luck.
Do your own research.
Don't invest more than you can afford to loose.

Investing in crypto is just gambling. There is no reason to think it will be the currency of the future. I'm just surprised there are not more pump and dumps. Just look at the squid coin. Long term it seems crypto is not a good investment.

I… what?
@@nedcurfman3486 bitcoin by design is energy wasting to use, particularly mining uses so much electricity and computing power it’s horrible for the environment
@@jessefehr7249 Oh? The entire internet uses more energy than one particular part of the internet? That's amazing.
@@jessefehr7249 That's a misleading comparison. You should be comparing Bitcoin processing to a similar transaction processor like Visa since that's what it is trying to replace. And it's a well-documented fact that each Bitcoin transaction consumes roughly 1.5 million times more energy than a traditional Visa transaction and that ratio will only get worse as the blockchain grows. Ever wondered why no one has ever implemented distributed linked lists to record data?? Because it is quite literally the most inefficient way of storing data. Bitcoiner's don't care that they are burning the world so long as they make a few bucks off it.

Inventing a new currency that would probably draw a TON of interest is an entirely different level from inventing a fake church or SuperPAC. It would actually be a thing, and people would want to use it, and all of a sudden Oliver and Co. is stuck managing a cryptocurrency until the end of time.

Moot Juh me too - like when they made the Make Donald Drumph Again..... And they sold like over 25,000 - and sold them "at cost" so made no profit. At least this time they could've planned ahead more and give any profits to charity.
I feel if he did that, the coin would grow a lot of money and lose the point it was trying to make, like Dogecoin.
Moot Juh how bout ratface coin?
I would pump and dump Olivercoin any day ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Coin Oliver or John Coiniver
I miss when GPUs were more affordable. ;-;
Atanih23 inb4 someone tells you to crypto mine so you can buy hardware because they're fucking retarded
When Cryptocurrency crashes you can buy a used 1080 Ti for prolly 200 bucks
Rednassie I got a rx 580 8gb for 240€ (Germany) now you cant get them under 400€
When were they even remotely affordable?
@JakeAndBake seriously. when it does crash, or at the very least fall enough that GPU mining stops being profitable, the flood of used high end enthusiast cards will be insane. I just don't know if I'd trust a card that has been run 24/7 at 100% load for such a long time, even if it's only $200-$300 for a 1080/Ti
People really missed the point of this video. He literally says that blockchain has potential but that is also can be abused. That’s clear and is not anti technology or a statement disparaging the technology, it’s just a warning to make intelligent investment decisions and to make sure you aren’t taken advantage of.
What makes you think people missed the point of the video?
Blockchain is the technology, crypto currency is a currency and doesn't have anything to do with the technology other than being traded in it. Blockchain is good and revolutionizing, crypto is fairytail-money that has value because a lot of people like fairytails. Tokens have expected value, coins have limited real value, the technology is seperate from those two and has real application.
Cryptocoins is a digital asset, not currency. To be a currency it has to be widely acceptable as a legal tender, which cryptocoins are not.
Who missed the point?
@@MartinSlow Money is fairy tail money. Once, it was backed by something, its weight in gold. Now the only value placed in our paper bills is because we place it there. This is why economies collapse when too much money is printed (example Germany post WWI) and also why the value of a country's money fluctuates so much compared to other companies.
Funny when he brought up how blockchains were impossible to hack..... that is before the ancient primordial art of tricking someone into giving you their login credentials returned from the depths
The fall of crypto started with,”want me to trim your armor for free in the forest?”
The last bit was brilliant. The take away is still don't invest more than you can afford to lose. In anything

Which is increasingly relevant if you heard anything like Earth 2. Someone legit said, "YOU WILL ALWAYS LOSE MONEY WHEN INVESTING". Sure, but if you lost 1,000 and get 10 dollars in returns, that means you're the idiot.

Just need to buy Bitcoin and hold forever never listen to any shit coin RUclips shills
@@Swandivein Not entirely accurate, but sure 95% of the way there. That's a safe strategy.
Also, a lot of crypto spam comments are not even crypto, but scams.
They will not end up in prison b/c authorities are giving crypto holders what they want - currency with no intervention. They sit back and laugh their butts off when people lose $$. They are not going to give up a tool in their economic arsenal - national currency. If they protected investors, they would legitimize crypto. You are on your own - like you wanted. Good luck.
@@Galworld761 There is a lot of noise being made about the bad actors in this space. In my opinion it's a matter of time before they set a precedent and someone ends up in jail. People do want some degree of regulation in the space and it will come as the assets class matures.

Damn, John Oliver nailed it. Bitcoin and other crytocurrencies went down. Way down.
but EOS is still worth over 3 billion, and you can actually use it. there is not too many dapps, and better alternatives are already out there, but the idea proved successful. the real kicker will be when TON gets released later this year, or so I hope

Can’t count how many times I’ve watched this episode. It never gets old.
Decentralized and untraceable currency helps a lot of bad guys, like hackers, smuglers, drug dealers, paedophiles, tax evaders, terrorists, human traffickers...
Why do people think bitcoin is untraceable??? It’s based on public ledger the blockchain…it’s the opposite of untraceable it’s all public open source
@@robertorthwein7680 Point taken, but people present Bitcoin as untraceable, like it's something good. If it's not untraceable, then it has no use for anyone.
Be careful of the spam crypto comments. They are not even crypto. They are serious scams.
It never gets old, and hindsight changes it's humor.

Same, but then that would probably go against the message of this video, which is "be careful and don't mindlessly throw your money into cryptocurrency..." because then a bunch of John's fans would very likely mindlessly throw their money into John's crytocurrency.
When referencing corporate America, he said “They don’t really care about you as they make it seem” realest thing he said...I’ve seen experienced it first hand in the DMV.

John Oliver had a missed opportunity to start his own cryptocurrency
He could have made a billion dollars doing it.
No, I'm not kidding. People watch his show by the millions. A good portion of the fans would buy that coin out of solidarity and just because. Worst case scenario is that he only manages to raise 1500000USD, and the LastWeekCoin's value languishes after that.
Craeful Coin, the responsible crypto.
He could have but you don't "make" money, you take it from other investors. This money doesn't come from nowhere it comes from other people.
He could have gained billions, but it would have been at the expense of his audience and that's religions game, not his. He has morals
maybe the proceeds could have gone to charity or something. so it's not like HBO are just ripping off their audience, but they still get to do their stunt.
Ombro, that's basically what he died with Our Lady of Perpetual Exemption. Legally he could have kept all that money and the IRS wouldn't have complained, instead he chose to donate it to charity. Imagine how much charity could do with a billion dollars made from Lastweekcoin.

The Chicken McNugget analogy applies to all of cryptography, TBH. Anyway, what _really_ is paradoxical, is that there are tons of things that are (functionally) cryptocurrency financial intermediaries (a.k.a. "banks"), despite the claim that cryptos cut out the middleman.

Now there’s part 2 as of today 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Someone put it this way when asked to explain bitcoin concisely: "Imagine if leaving your truck running 24/7 produced solved sudokus that you can trade for heroin".
@Andrew Harper
From what I've heard, it's actually pretty accurate.
Andrew Harper Ignore him, this is not the only thing he has gotten wrong about crypto.
Also, Sudoku is a math and logic puzzle. It may not be on the same complexity you would get with other math puzzles.
And yes the metaphor is accurate. Or in a less abstraction
Imagine if you left your computer on all day that produces and ‘prints’ solved math problems that you can trade for anything that has also been agreed to have value.
In this case, the completed math problem is like doing a ledger in finance and can be pretty liquid. Crypto trades for crypto quite easily and only some cryptocoins have addressed to even add the financial markets into this bubble.
But bitcoin can go for anything in the 1500 list, generally.
Pretty sure I am throwing in more economics and finance into this but yeah the metaphor is spot on.
I think the analogy was about bitcoin mining...
@@incognito3402 The funny thing is that they are both right yet completely incapable of seeing they are saying exactly the same thing in different words and are arguing fiercely over meaningless semantics!
@Andrew Harper can you please just stfu you obviously don't have a clue how bitcoins are ''mined'' (which you can do by leaving your computer on 24/7 whilst it solves equations)
the ''solved sudoku'' aspect is accurate, stop being such a pedantic moron.
