Amidst all the bitcoin lunacy.
I am here in Caracas now, and WE (meaning TAT'ers) had forgotten that El Salvador adopted Bitcoin as its official currency after the new, super smart, super young president decided it was the way of the future. There are enough news about that move here, because the Vennie Govt has its own cyber-scam (the PETRO).
There are a lot of problems there, as you can imagine in El Salvador).
Again, our penchant for electing buffoons (US being S. America).

Just repeating myself, but still... Crypto is a risky investment. It's ok to do risky investments as long as you understand them AND losing that money would not be catastrophic for you.

NYC's new Mayor (less than a year in office) was on the crypto bandwagon and was talking about getting part of his salary in crypto. I haven't heard him talking that talk lately.

I know that I am an old gizzard, and I am outdated, but that this silly app is worth the GDP of a small country... it is hard to wrap my head around that.
