        Maybe some are more interested in such junk game tokens. Pump&Dump Coiners don't need decentralization ans security.

        This is why Weasel Ver never makes falsifiable predictions, he can claim he's right even when he's always wrong.

        @rogerkver a protocol is not a high speed payment system. Security via decentralization and high node count. Scale via layer 2
