'I' shall personally seek to make sense of BTC market fundamentals and work to maintain the stability of the system. This includes making sure my own systems are secure and stable. Long term planning for my own operations is an important part of this. As I learn things that I find helpful I shall attempt to share them.

"mediums for exchange" (fancy word for "money") ALL depend on a huge mass of "people who count" (those who have HUGE amounts of money) BELIEVING that the system really works.
MAKE NO MISTAKE; THIS IS "THE TIME OF TESTING" (KGV Xian Bible) for Bitcoin. If Bitcoin fails these attacks then it is dead, if it survives then it gets to try the "next level"!
