I vividly remember... I was in the office and one of my coworkers comes up to me with a shit eating grin on his face - like he had something he wanted to share...
He said, "Have you ever heard of Bitcoin?" I said, "No..." He explained (sort of) what he thought it was, but sounded more like an investment opportunity (blah blah blah) less than 10 cents per... I didn't bite.
Lets just say this didn't age well for me, lmao.
Good job staying away from the Ponzi scheme. Bitcoin is an investment in the same way art is - it's only valuable if you can find another schmuck who will pay you for it.
