#ProofofHurl
It's easily the oldest of our traditional games.
They've found loads of old hurls in archaeological digs in bogs in Ulster, suggesting that it was widely played wayyyyy back, but sadly its Gaelic football that takes pride of place in Ulster.
That is so cool. Tbf I have been up the North Antrim coast and they love their hurling up there. Liam Watson being a genius. #ProofOfHurl I think Bitcoiners would love hurling if they got a chance at it
Nothin wrong with Gaelic Football 😉
I remember 1989 v well when Antrim beat Offaly in all ireland hurling semi final ...
Gas man. Real proof of work is getting money from Cavan people in work so i can buy bitcoin. That’s real hard work.
True that and hurling. Tbh I credit a lot of my life to hurling, even understanding bitcoin to hurling. Hurling shows you how consistently working at something garners small improvements. It's put me in positions of extreme mental will, many times I believed I wouldn't succeed, or wasn't good enough etc. But you keep hurling and that too shall pass. Even when I first started learning about Bitcoin, many concepts I felt, I'll never understand this. But then I remembered, keep hurling and this too shall pass
Bitcoin is profound on many levels. I like how there’s no IQ threshold to get it and that perseverance and true inquiry will be rewarded
