I've often wondered about that too.  No tellin'.  He probably thought, "This is gonna cost me most of my pay check, but man, it's so hilarious, I've just gotta do it." Then ... he could have been Einstein/Nostradamus and held on to it, or he could have ended up like that fellow who mined a bunch of BTC way back when -- just for the fun of it -- forgot about it, his computer crashed and he threw it out, found out a few days later he was likely a BTC gazillionaire and went dumpster diving -- to no avail. LOL.


I'm neither Einstein nor Nostradamus so I don't know exactly *when* UNO will do really well.  I'm just absolutely convinced, like you, that it *will* become like gold.  

BTW, speaking of gold, etc., check out this "radio podcast" (I guess that's what it is) interview with Paul Craig Roberts ...


Black Swans are interesting critters.    And I think they bode well for good crypto, whether UNO or -- a bit further on out -- BTC.
