No, not @frankbacon. Bacon-backed cryptocurrency.
About 3 weeks after Sausage Software started to sell the HotDog Web Editor online, Oscar Mayer contacted me and offered me $1 million - not for the software, for the domain sausage.com. Since a month before I was down to my last $18, I briefly entertained the idea. I wrote back to the guy “tell ‘em if they throw in a Wiener Mobile I will consider it”. I never heard back from them. Wiener Mobiles were just too valuable back in July 1995. Call me crazy - and some do - but a fully chromed Sausage mobile would’ve been a great cross-country promotional vehicle...
...Better than those Red Bull ones with hot chicks driving them and cans coming out the top.
We ended up instead with an RV with a HotDog banner blasting Snoop Dogg at Comdex and the Netscape parking lot...but that’s a story for another time.
Well, these days it seems Wiener Mobiles are just being handed out Willy-Nilly in #cryptocurrency disputes. A year’s supply of bacon is more valuable.

WTF is Bacoin? From Coindesk:
Great story. Highly rEsteemed!
They were Doomed to fail.
They didn’t get MY approval on the project and I would have held out for a Weiner Wagon as well.
SteemON!
PS: BCH is the REAL Bitcoin

I like the cut of your Jib my friend.
I accept the Over valuation of the current SBDs as a close enough analog to how well a BACOiN would do; but SMTs and EOS apps will likely provide a nicer market to work in for my Brand. I abhor almost every Blockchain in existence right now. Give me Email on Bitcoin and I might get interested. Until then, STEEM provides utility that even the simplest of Folk can wrap their head around. And believe it or not, I'm a Pretty Simple Man...

Indeed I did. $20 shipping to New Zealand. There was some hangup with the purchase and I got a notice from Amazon saying it was delayed, maybe Dave's first print run sold out.

We called it "Snooping the suits". We also played "Burn baby burn! Disco inferno!"
