I, for one, will never use crypto, nor ever accept it as payment for anything. I think it should be outlawed as the scam it is. - 1pg

Me either. There was an article in Forbes a few months ago concerning all the flavors of crypto currency that are out there. The big ones we have heard of, Bitcoin, CoinBase, Etherium, etc.

The point of the Forbes article was that there are literally thousands of other crypto currencies that have been launched over the years, around the world, that are just setting around, many with little or no activity, launched but forgotten, the associated wallets holding mostly original investor money, investors who now can't find anybody to sell their crypto to.

Big or Small, it still is not clear who pays the data center bills for these currencies to maintain their records, "forever?".
