You're right about the infinite supply being dodgy. But I'm so sick of hearing how it's not fair that the early crypto adopters are doing well for themselves. Wah wah wah.

"After the election of Donald Trump, thousands of technology workers signed a pledge against building government databases for targeting individuals based on race, religion, or national origin.

This is very nice. I usually watch the combined order book on bitcoinity. I just leave it running in the back ground and check it now and again. One day the IT admin at work noticed that I was downloading 6GB per day from there. I was shocked.

Not even as a hedge against whatever is going on in their country?

This works fine in games that are free to play like League of Legends, I actually think it's a fantastic business model. But unsurprisingly, the attention maximizing dopamine slow-release algorithm causes cognitive dissonance when you can bypass it by paying but you've already paid.

Does the bot try to maximize $ value or total ETH? It could be a terrible bot and he could still be up $ wise purely because the value of ETH went up.
