As of Jan. 31, 2019, there were roughly 115,000 users with balances signed up on the exchange, with $70 million CAD in fiat and $180 million CAD in crypto owed overall, according to the filing.

These scam artists are really wedded to that supposed insult “fiat” currency aren’t they? Real currency, issued by a government, has something backing it up. As I’ve said before, if you can pull “money” out of your ass and get anybody to accept it, more power to you, but what could be more “fiat” (let it be) currency than that?

And why in heaven’s name do you need computers churning away massive amounts of electricity to do it? “Look, you rubes, this here is money!” There—very little energy expended. This is complete idiocy that makes tulipomania look intelligent.
