They have ~300 employees. So 33M is not a crazy price to pay. ~110k USD/employee/year. Considering the industry they're in (information and tech) this is totally reasonable. Otherwise no big deal that it may or may not fit yo

Yes that may be true, but that also means BTC is essentially in a deflationary period as the buying power of the currency is currently going up with time (unlike most Fiat, which the buying power tends to decrease during an inflationary per

Especially with a centralized authority being LO3. I don't get the point of using a blockchain in this case, who is confirming the transacations? What is the incentive for confirmation? Also if LO3s customers are just buying from the g
