I’ve mined before and this isn’t how it works

Clearly that was a while ago so I’m a little out of the loop

you are not tall enough for this ride

I'm not advocating for mining crypto. I understood the commenter above me to be (rudely) saying I wasn't qualified to comment on whether this Airbnb scammer could have made the profit they claimed. ("You're not tall enough for this ride")

But that same commenter didn't seem to be aware that with a mining pool you don't have to single handedly win a block in order to make a profit.

It's still wasteful and unsustainable.

no, for running your mouth with statements that directly defeat each other

the great thing about projection is one can imagine anything you want in someone else's head!

oh hey, a correct take! finally
