Did a Nigerian price phone you with this information and ask for a small investment?

I'm confused as to why an education system anywhere would need or could use a blockchain system, what exactly would it be used for?

This is especially confusing in a country where most schools don't actually have a building let alone own a computer, why would Ethiopia need a blockchain system, what does it keep secure or distribute?

I think they meant their computer would be chained to a block.

Yeah all this ADA hype is not letting me buy back in at a good price. Lucky BTC is still hanging in there. Hope the hype dies down soon :-)

Vitalik Buterin, the Russian-Canadian creator of ETH, became a billionaire today as ETH passed $3000.

The problem of looking at it and thinking it makes no sense other than as a pyramid scheme to fleece poor schmoes of their money is that it does make me a bit angry, Amway makes me angry as well.

So what's behind the meteoric rise of dogecoin? I kinda got the initial surge during the Gamespot stock fiasco, kids pumping a joke coin for laughs. But it's gone far too high now for that to still be the case, and the coin still has no actual use case that I'm aware of. So why are people still buying so much of it?

Also more companies are now taking Doge as payment, take the Oakland A's of the MLB for example:

You can buy a pair of seats to the Jays-A's series for 100 Doge.....yes for the whole series. That's 4 games, two seats , for 100 doge...or ~$50

Also Guy Fieri accepts it at Flavortown! get your T's.

Elon would become Meme Christ if he actually tanked it on SNL. Would be a GOAT troll moment.
