    it's still pretty weird to me. So anyone can start a server farm and just mine these things all day? what's really going on there..... is bitcoin using the GPU/CPU cycles to do some other computing task? search for extraterrestrials? sounds like a giant botnet created by everyone running the bitcoin miner. haha

    weird.

    • not inflation, scarcity.
      ie: gold is expensive because it's rare, same with bitcoins.      monNom
