Nope. I remember I was installing the very first Bitcoin ATMs in the casinos back in 2014. It was 340 bucks for Bitcoin at the time. And trying to explain to the governor, the mayor, casino owners why they should have a Bitcoin ATM. They thought I had three heads, right? Trying to explain it back then.

Oh, I bought this building for six million, I sold it for eight million, I'm a genius, it's worth 11 million now.
