An ode to the silk road users of yesteryear.

It's 2009, my brother is reading a UK tech magazine called T3 where they mention this new thing called bitcoin. We proceeded to look into it further and came across a website on the dark web called Silk Road, we then bought 10 Bitcoin from Mtgox I believe and proceeded to buy a few grams of weed with it, which we thought was incredible that you could buy weed with this weird new internet money.

I could have been incredibly wealthy if I wasn't a stoner, so long story short: don't do drugs kids.

Of course even if we held it we would have likely sold it 100 times over by now, but it still haunts me sometimes to this day.
