Curious cases in the world of cryptocurrencies
1. Every 5 Venezuelans still mine crypto. Today, Venezuela lives in conditions of hyperinflation, which has not spared even the rare species of horse in the Caracas Zoo. The local currency is close to the status of “cut up pieces of paper”; the population lives in hunger and devastation, surviving as best they can. It’s good that he is helped in his life by cryptocurrency and representatives of the fauna, which began to disappear en masse.
2. 2 employees of the Crimean Council of Ministers organized mining at the expense of the department in its basement. Using free energy for them, they collected the crypt for five months (electricity consumption amounted to more than eleven thousand kilowatts). Each of them was fined 30,000 rubles.
3. Australian Camp Simpson purchased 1,400 bitcoins worth about twelve million dollars in 2010 and began storing them on his computer disk. A few months later, he broke up with his girlfriend and decided to throw everything that reminded him of her in the trash. The disk with the cryptocurrency went there. Camp reported that he had converted cryptocurrency into dollar equivalent more than once and had fallen into depression more than once.
