You used to code.

For a while I worked in a call centre, reporting hardware & software faults for a major international. The job was just making records and allocating the correct support. I found it interesting though as it was "Enterprise Level" computer stuff for big multinationals, banks, and organizations with critical installations that needed to be either working or being fixed really fast by the best experts out there. The incidents were often new and completely bizarre, so the support professionals had to understand things at a fundamental level and be able to fix things no matter what the situation was.

That is one of the reasons I like CSPR, it has targeted that business sector, and they sound genuine in what they are doing. Also, they seem to be based in Asia as an organization, and I have a desire to invest as such in that area.

BTC is also a desire too, now I understand things a bit better. The rest I have are like lottery tickets with similar expectations. Possibly they might win, but no surprise if they zero out, or even if it turns out the draw is rigged? -g-. If BTC goes to $0.01 I will buy some more. IF BTC is at $0.01, other cryptos will be priced appropriately, and I will probably be buying some of those too.

I think it's a mistake to think that only crypto can blow up. Debt based monetary systems have problems too.

One of my favourite books and the authors. I have not studied him in depth though, just read his book he wrote after he retired.
