>I saw the Reddit post by u/sick_silk regarding the mysterious Bitcoin wallet, (1933phfhK3ZgFQNLGSDXvqCn32k2buXY8a). >I thought to myself, "Hey, Coinbase has a 'note' section when you send crypto.

>And then I realized I hadn't included a wallet address the mysterious individual could send a Bitcoin, so I sent more, this time $2.05 >(0.00032562 BTC) with the "note":

I usually tell folks to follow their dreams, but in your case...maybe read a nice space opera instead.

gibs me dat
Noah Cruz
nah. We build a world where it's easier to find peace, and we prepare the youth by providing them the tools to live a balanced life. Handouts won't be needed.
Brody Jones
We are never going to get into space on an appreciable level if we let the world be overrun by welfare recipients. Also most pollution comes from the third world, and they have unsustainable population growth.
William Price
if you send me 1 ETH I will send you 10 ETH back for your project
Jason Cox
Maybe we create a world where folks don't need welfare, then.
Zachary Morris
yeah right away i'm on it

Also, Humanity, in general, has unsustainable population growth. The solution, however, isn't mandatory sterilization. It's education, and making a better life attainable. As for third world countries, I don't know what the answer is..but it isn't imposing anyone's will on them but their own.
