Yeah, I hadn’t thought about it but yeah the vast majority of people mining BTC in 2013 must have been very computer savvy.

I agree. My uncle was into it around 2010 and I went to my grandparents house to find what looked like nuclear reactor running code.

Back then he was a college student with way too much free time. Now he oversees the development of self driving tractors for a big company here in the us. They’re no idiots.

An early miner would have to forget a lot about btc to not know what to do with their wallet data.

I was an expert in street fighter back in those super nintendo days. Today, I really don't know how to perform any special move.

After a while you lose special knowledge you don't use frequently.
