For want of doubt, consider what has happened to one of the shiny objects in the crypto space in recent weeks. We are referring to a financial product aptly called “Fartcoin”, which is a newly minted cryptocurrency most assuredly worth $0.000. That is, it pays no interest or dividend, earns nothing, has a zero use case and exists solely to absorb some of the oceanic volume of speculative credit the Fed has unleashed upon the financial system.
Nevertheless, in a matter of weeks Fartcoin has skyrocketed from an initial market cap (ICO) of $3 million on October 18 to a recent peak of $1.5 billion on January 3rd. That’s a 510X gain in barely 70 days, including weekends and Christmas.……Fartcoin is now worth more than around 1,000 companies in the Russell 3000 Index, — companies with products and services, many of which are generating cash, others that are on a path to generating cash.

Some of these things I still miss
I grew up without safe spaces.

I drank water from the hose.
I ate peanuts in class.
None of us wore a helmet.
Kids got hurt. We fell down. And we signed a lot of casts.
We couldn’t pause TV. We’d call out “It’s on!” as soon as the commercials started to end (for those who had left the room). And we watched our favourite shows as a family.
There was no next day delivery.
There was no bundle this with that.
There was no internet. Skip the Dishes didn’t exist.
Fast food was not the norm. It was easier to eat healthy. There were home phones. There was VH.........
