“the only thing I can think of is just catastrophic failure and you know I was worried about that catastrophic failure like what hacking or what we no I don't worry about hacking because it's it's it's technal you know secure people are worried about Quantum Computing but I think that's too far off I don't worry about that no just I I don't know I mean just some some bug that's that's we're not aware of that just causes the whole thing to blow up I mean I was worried about that much more so in the earlier days um and we're now 15 years in and 870,000 blocks into it um I think the odds of that are quite low”
