    Hi Nick,

    I see there's a new bunch of sysops in Fidonet looking at BBS_CARNIVAL...

    The bunch is looking to make money from running a decentralized "BBS Marketplace".

    Better hurry and get it set up! Your fortune awaits!

    Bwahahha OH Mannnnnnn... I had a friend a few years ago that would just go batshit over crypto. Its all he ever talked about. Bitcoin this, bitcoin that.

    Mining. Graphics cards. "Nicky, banks will be obsolete in 5 years". Better hurry and make your fortune. He never shut up about this. Every freaking time
    I talked to him on the phone it was crypto this, crypto that.

    I was very happy to see the death of bitcoin; felt nearly as happy and
    cheerful as the death of IE, Macromedia Flash and Myspace.
