to whom it may concern, because this is interesting, and I don't know how to the community decided to adopt this particular word "pleb." Here is the etymology:

plebeian (n.)

"member of the lowest class or the common people," 1530s, from Latin plebius "person not of noble rank," from adjective meaning "of the common people" (see plebeian (adj.)).

plebeian (adj.)

"of or characteristic of the lower class or the common people," 1560s in a Roman historical sense, from Latin plebeius "belonging to the plebs," earlier plebes, "the populace, the common people" (as opposed to patricians, etc.), also "commonality; the mass, the multitude; the lower class" (from PIE *ple-, from root *pele- (1) "to fill"). In general (non-historical) use from 1580s.

is this the bitcoin folks way of saying, I'm just an average person?" or am I missing something here and need to be edjumakated? Most of you are too young for me to say "Splain, Lucy! Splain.." But it's a reference to Cuban "Desi Arnaz," from the 1950's classic "I love lucy."

When Ricky got confused about something Lucy did or said, he'd say "splain Lucy, splain.." like explain.
