Another life ruined by Shitcoins. Be careful out there Rebel and good luck with your lawsuit.

"In a complaint published on Wednesday, Razumilov says he received 69 GayCoins on a cryptocurrency payment app he downloaded onto his iPhone in 2017.

The man has accused Apple of "manipulatively pushing me toward homosexuality", which he says has caused him "moral suffering and harm to mental health"."

Don't know if it's true or fake, but it's too cute not to merit.

Right, in about two weeks (how long is the average difficulty change interval?) they could break havoc.
IF they manage to pull it off while coins are still being mined

No. Difficulty reset period is 2016 blocks. Which works out to two weeks when the average block interval is exactly 10 minutes.

If some New Technology bursts on the scene that can mine faster then the existing network, those 2016 blocks will be mined much faster than two weeks, at which point the new difficulty will be reset to take this new hash power into account, resetting back to ten-minute block intervals.

Of course you're right. "Damage" is limited to 2016 blocks, not two weeks.

You are an asset on certain occasions (when we're far from religion).

Death is natural. You must accept it and move on to other things in life.

Yes, if we were machines.
But death also defines life, so it's very important. You must accept the true feelings it brings up in you and then move on to other things in life afterwards. No feelings, no life, mate.

If we were machines
But death also defines life
No feelings, no life

I owe you one. Lambie snatched it first.
