8,760 hours, 365 days, 12 months, 1 year. that's how long it's been since the post “OpenCoin launched online” was published.
It's been a long year. we remember a lot of things. the very first airdrop - yes, it was fun. we remember how a joke gave birth to the idea we've been guarding for 525,600 minutes now. the idea of a decentralized future of web3 and an ecosystem of services where everyone is free to choose.
Many times our idea has failed. We remember it all. The scandals, the disappointments and finding faith again.
It's been 31,536,000 seconds. Everyone doubts. We doubted. Doubt breeds failure.
What's the right decision? Should we add this or that feature? What if we try GameFi?
We had no doubts about one thing: the project will live on. it is an outlet for dozens of people from different areas of TON who have gathered to turn ideas into reality.

The S&P 500 slumped 1.8% on Monday and Tuesday, thanks to China Evergrande, the Chinese property company that looks like it is ready to default on its more-than $300 billion in debt. Cries of the next Lehman Brothers—or maybe the next Silverado?—echoed through the canyons of Wall Street as investors prepared for the worst.
Should You Buy Bitcoin?
In general, many financial experts support their clients’ desire to buy cryptocurrency, but they don’t recommend it unless clients express interest. “The biggest concern for us is if someone wants to invest in crypto and the investment they choose doesn’t do well, and then all of a sudden they can’t send their kids to college,” says Ian Harvey, a certified financial planner (CFP) in New York City. “Then it wasn’t worth the risk.” The speculative nature of cryptocurrency leads some planners to recommend it for clients’ “side” investments. “Some call it a Vegas account,” says Scott Hammel, a CFP in Dallas. “Let’s keep this away from our real long-term perspective, make sure it doesn’t become too large a portion of your portfolio.” In a very real sense, Bitcoin is like a single stock, and advisors wouldn’t recommend putting a sizable part of your portfolio into any one company. At most, planners suggest putting no more than 1% to 10% into Bitcoin if you’re passionate about it. “If it was one stock, you would never allocate any significant portion of your portfolio to it,” Hammel says.
