Each point is a seven-day rolling window of complete UTC days; a point is comparable only when at least 100 analyzed posts or comments fall inside it. A day with no analyzed records counts as zero; missing coverage is marked and never shown as zero. The series ends at the latest complete analyzed day — it never extends into the current incomplete day. How attention is measured.

I did the same back in 2011 … SaltCtyMiners was slinging rigs on eBay, it was exciting times, I wish I left a note for my past self, save them, Silk Road was fun … money well spent 😝

Using it on silk road, I had probably used 10 to 20 when it was really cheap around 20 to 30 dollars for 1

I spent ~8 BTC on the Silk Road on less than a half ounce of weed. Was probably 17-18 at the time. Dad hosted about 20 servers at home at the time (Dell 2950s) so my GPU chugging away 24/7 wasn't even a blip on the electricity bill, and to me it was literally just free money, why wouldn't I spend it? Regrets? Sure, who wouldn't. But nothing deep seeded. I genuinely think SR was a big player it terms of legitimizing BTC as currency, so it's neat to have been a part of that phase of it's existence. Hell I have more regrets about a vanilla WoW account I got banned (Had an ivory raptor before they got removed from the game) lol. Ironically, once I did explain it to Dad way back when, he had my stop because he "didn't want anything possibly nefarious" running on the network - fair enough. Guess which of the two of us owns 1 BTC now? (hint, not me)

He probably spent it all on silk road

Better question would be - Anyone selling drugs on silk road back in 2012 back when BTC was $1 and stumble back into your wallet to find you’re now richer than the cartel 🤣
