That's excessively dehydrated.

That's how bad it was.

Crypto mining was the only thing that got me out of that rut to buy me some time until I was able to get back stable, which took some time all the way to 2023, frankly.

But the thing is,

a lot of crypto projects were spinning up and you had things like unmindable and unmindable lets you quote mine different cryptocurrencies, even if they're not directly mindable.

And all they're really doing is mining some other cryptocurrency that is proof of work selling for proceeds.

And then you can get these other coins.

And so then a lot of these one, these one offs were spiking because of the price spikes of Bitcoin.

when Bitcoin's running up, Ethereum runs up, all the other chains run up.

Ethereum, I think got as high as 4,800 bucks at that time.

This is still proof of work.

Now, mind you, there were a number of projects that were created,

Some are Ethereum, but the vast majority of Binance Smart Chain.

But some of them are Ethereum.

For example, SafeMoon, you may or may not have heard of.

Satama, you may or may not have heard of.

Tatano, Libero, Seifu.

A number of these projects, Para Inu, Keanu Inu, SHIB even.

SHIB was originated a little bit earlier than that, but that was its peak.

all these projects had a different message and different approaches to the message shiv's message was really we can be basically a payment we don't have reflections we don't have burn we could just be payment we could take over the world and it had its pumps and spikes largely because it was a meme coin era shib then inspires others
