Been there, done that...tossed the hd with crypto....
Well there’s your problem right there
On a hard drive? I remember a bunch of people messing around with bitcoin when it was new, relatively unknown and considered a niche nerd thing. There were online competitions with money prizes where the "last winner" (eg. third place) would win like one bitcoin.
Fast forward 15 years and the stuff you mined for fun in high school and forgot about on some dusty old computer is worth thousands of dollars.
It was a tongue in cheek comment no worries mate. I used to mine, much to my embarrassment.
Honestly, I kind of wish crypto hadn't gone to shit with the whole speculation thing.. It was just this fun thing where obscure websites would let you buy random shit for laughs sometimes. Then suddenly investors had to try making money off something with no inherent value and ruined it :/
If anyone here has that problem I can solve it for you
