Blockchain

block·chain
/ˈbläkˌCHān/
noun

noun: blockchain; plural noun: blockchains; noun: block-chain; plural noun: block-chains
a digital ledger in which transactions made in bitcoin or another cryptocurrency are recorded chronologically and publicly.
"we can actually have a look at the blockchain and see evidence of what's going on"

Origin: Early 21st century: from block + chain.

That is the definition when I look it up, today.

I am certain this will change to omit any reflection of the technology being attributed to a currency of any sort.

This is my first post. It's almost 3pm on a Tuesday and I'm about to leave to pick up my daughter from school.

I am a learning enthusiast who "discovered" blockchain in May, went nuts about it, didn't notice the currency that runs on top of it until July and have read pretty much nothing but blockchain related news in every last feed I have since then. Yep, I'm a junky, again.

The feeling I have is nearly identical to the one I (now) clearly recall from 1996 when I first installed Windows 95 and subsequently, AOL…

For me, the old Intel "Dun dun dun" sound was my own pied piper and I scurried liked the fucking rat I am to the nightly chats.

Instant addiction, instant fucking addiction. I learned everything I could about AOL, up to and including how procure, uh, special account access with which I would make things using the internally provided tools and areas.

Anyway, I was hooked and now(), holy shit, hooked again…love this feeling. Like TURBORAWR mowing through my head. Because I was there, working the DOTCOM boom, I know this feeling, I feel its power and I observe, on a nearly daily basis, the world underestimating what's happening. Its Fucking BEAUTIFUL.

So it has begun for me and (thank the fucking lord) my wife totally supports it. She has read enough data on blockchain to understand it, have ideas about how it can and will likely be used and sees that fucking train coming. Bless her! I am so fucking lucky, thanks babe! LOVE YOU!

We have agreed to invest $200 a week in a diversified crypt-folios. It's exciting to watch and to be a part of. I have read a ton of info on each coin we've chosen and support and believe in the technology behind it. On that note, holy shit, if you haven't read up on any or much of the tech scene going on out there, go read, it's pretty fucking cool.

Time to get my dotty.
