I remember back in my roomscape days, people would get you to trade with them, and both sides had to accept the trade before it would go through. Scammers would start a trade with you, add their items, wait for you to accept, then take out their items, throw in worse ones and accept it before you could rescend your accept. It sucked. This was mid 2000s

Hi Bitcoin Dad and Chris! Haven’t had a Bitcoin Podcast in my rotation since Plan B and I’m learning quite a lot from you both. What are your thoughts on Brave Attention Tokens? Keep up the great work! A Guy Named Ryan (because Chris butchers user names ;-)

Are we the betamax of the crypto wars? Better tech, but worse marketing causing us to eventually lose out?
