In 2011, Wired reporter Andy Greenberg thought Bitcoin could keep users completely anonymous. But at the 2025 Bitwarden Open Source Security Summit, he said, "I slowly realized I was totally wrong about Bitcoin. It was actually the opposite of untraceable."

It's well known that we use only 10% of our brains potential. Your body consumed calories to maintain that wasted 90%. What if there was a way to turn that excess into something more fiscally valuable? Coin-cussion is here to disrupt your neural network and let you cash in!
