Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

That happened early on in the cycle, and it happened only once. Partly because those looking to sell did so once the coin became tradable, then the price took a nosedive and started to stabilize. Once the pressure was released, and those looking for profits exited, it didn't have the same cycles of mania as Bitcoin and the others. Further down the line, applications were built on top of the chia blockchain. It's pretty boring as cryptos go, which is a good thing.
