@Anon136 - Have you got the sponsors for writing the essay?
Na but thats ok. I didnt really get left behind. At most I might have thrown a bitcoin in the ICO. And that would have yielded a stake that I can easily afford to just purchase. And yea it costs more but there is a lot less risk when there is real working software so you win some you lose some. I thought it was like nxt but it wasn't. A LOT more bitcoin was donated total to the ico.
What is your original language and where are you from? (just interesting)
English and South Eastern United States. Why?
