A SPLIT SECOND CAN CHANGE EVERYTHING
The story is about the mysterious inventor of Bitcoin. I'll start with a quick overview of how Bitcoin works, before diving into the mystery of its inventor. Bitcoin is a relatively new digital currency that can be transmitted across the Internet. You can buy bitcoins with dollars or other traditional money from sites such as Coinbase or MtGox, send bitcoins to other people, buy things with them at some places, and exchange bitcoins back into dollars.

A Simple Plan
Another day, another dollar. Working a dead-end job is so normal now that it's seen as uncommon to have dreams and aspirations these days. Sad times. I pulled my ill-fitting, ugly uniform on for what felt like the millionth time. I had worked there for 16 years, yet never managed to save enough money to do anything I had wanted to in my younger years. Like going on holiday, buying a house, buying a nice car. I looked around my small, expensive rented apartment, how depressing. Reflecting, my time is quite easily split into 3 clear activities, work, sleep and computers. Then the next month, repeat... for 16 years.

Satoshi the ninjas
I started learning about bitcoin when I was Googling about cryptocurrency. I remember that year very well. It was around April of 2016 when I looked at the value and saw that it was about 1000.00 USD per bitcoin. So, I did my best and researched what it was all about. I bought one Bitmain miner that hashed about 25 cents a day and I was amazed about the hardware and the software set-up.

Bitcoin: We May Have Opened Pandora's Box
Welcome to the New Frontier Instead of horses and mules, we're riding bulls and bears, instead of spinning revolvers and carrying carbine repeaters, your typical new age outlaw has an assortment of phones, laptops and keyboards in his or her arsernal. Instead of Cowboy hats — Guy Fawkes masks and instead of spurs, we now have exchanges where we can command our crypto to either buy at a Set Price to help our bulls garner traction or to place a Stop Limit to slow things down. In between that, the Crypto scene (especially back in 2017) is STILL a lot like the Wild West.
