I remember hearing some guy tell me about SolarCoin & some other person talking up Storj Coin. I bought Litecoin then, too. I was so excited. Early days...and we thought the possibilities were endless(and they were, just not with altcoins). Remember CVC? It promised to revolutionize voting. Ha.

We thought all the good ideas would eventually be built into bitcoin. We didn't realize that shitcoiners were infiltrating the meetups. Then a lot of bitcoiners splintered off into Monero, Zcash, Dash, etc. Then the fork wars, BCH, block wars, etc. Heroes kept falling on their swords. It was def scary times...
