I had been running BOINC for years when I saw that I could earn some Gridcoin for what I was already doing. So, I bought some bitcoin to trade for Gridcoin. At the time, bitcoin was in its recent bubble and rose significantly between order and delivery. I came across STEEM when I saw that it was used for Gridcoin-related posts. Having a background in economics and statistics, I decided I wanted to understand what I was getting into. I've already posted many, often pessimistic, opinions. So, what's your story?
