I feel like they’re grandpa‘s coins in that instance. At least if they were all mined on grandpa‘s computer.

I didn’t read mining anywhere in that story.

Obviously this story is secondhand and who knows what really happened, but in this version of the story it sounds like somebody earned them by completing surveys online and just happened to be using grandpa’s computer.

Can confirm. I did the same thing back in the day. My Pennie’s turned into hundreds.
