<p dir="ltr">It's clear to me that as much as I enjoy this community. Personal ethics and web browser convenience don't really apply here. In cryptocurrency you do whatever is profitable. The hard part can't be trying to find something that does one thing or another. If you're focused on that you'll waste your time and money I can promise that. </p>
