It's interesting to see how this coin has evolved. Back when I first learned about crypto, I thought I wanted to get into mining (I've since given up on that). Bitcoin seemed completely impossible without specialized equipment even years ago.
I settled on Monero as the token that I thought would take off next and it was actually possible to mine on my really good gaming GPU. I ended up not doing it for long. It still didn't seem worth it.
But I've checked in on the coin here and there as my initial fondness stuck around.
