I’d be checking KFC ads around the time the wallet was created. If special isn’t one of words “Kentucky Fried Chicken dollar fifty [special] Friday”…
I never know how serious to take cryptopress articles. What kind of cheap-ass encryption allows partial breaking like that? It’s like bad movie encryption.
Yeah, that’s not like anything I’ve used, unless they were inspired by the windows 10 password reset questions?
Are they sure it’s not
KENTUCKEY (adv.)
Fitting exactly and satisfyingly. The cardboard box that slides neatly into an exact space in a garage, or the last book which exactly fills a bookshelf, is said to fit ‘real nice and kentuckey’.

Well, bye.
should have gone for the “Hawk Tuah NFT Set”. way more value…

Hmmm…
Wasn’t it Equador that recently switched their currency to a digital coin? How did that work out again?
So-so. El Salvador seems to be quite happy right now, though.
This is such a mess… And the idiots who will be in charge soon will make it worse.
So AFAIK this was mostly done by Alexander Larson Shultz, aka Alex Larson, aka Lex Larson, aka Doc Hollywood…
Future is a fucking insane place to live in. Even P.K.Dick wasn’t insane enough to predict our world.
Are we in Hell? Is this the Black Iron Prison?

A teenager created a new memecoin, cashed out with $30k within 18 minutes of creating the coin, and the “investors” who had bought into it had the nerve to claim that they were being scammed by something that was done transparently, all out in the open. Their revenge, in addition to doxxing and harassing the kid’s family, was to pump up the value of this memecoin so that the kid theoretically lost out on millions of dollars by selling early. This whole phenomenon is stupid beyond words.
If the prices swing so much, so fast, can these cryptos have any use as a currency?
If these cryptos don’t have any use as a currency, can crypto “investment” ever be anything but Ponzi schemes? Even with plans for the feds to start a “Strategic” Crypto “Reserve”?
Relevant:
I think we all know the answer to that.
But in addition to the instability it’s also remarkable just how damn inconvenient and time consuming it is to do transactions with bitcoin. I’ve never attempted it myself but I just read that it takes somewhere between 30 and 60 minutes to use a bitcoin ATM to get cash. (Sounds ridiculous but that was on a website for a company that sells bitcoin ATMs so I’m guessing that it’s true)
