Ending note from the author:

This article's also served me as a reminder. That if you can escape the fuzz, the price, the monkeys in JPEGs, the ponzis, the rugpulls, the thefts, there's still value in here. This is no "magic" internet money. There's real math, cryptography and computer science going. Being open source, you can see every single piece moving. You can almost touch them. No matter the day nor the time. No matter who you are. No matter where you come from
