SpareCoin (SPARE) confuses me. As one of the “original forks”, it has some things about it as of late that do not line up or add up when compared to the others. Specifically, I mean when we compare it to Flax (XFX) and ChainGreen (CGN), the other two mainstream original Chia Forks that hit the scene before “MOAR FORKS” became a thing. Yes, we also had Goji (XGJ), Seno (XSE) and ChiaRose (XCR), but for obvious reasons, I do not count these among the “originals”.

The Journey Thus Far, Chia Fork Farmer Turned Chia Fork Trader
Certainly it has been an interesting ride from back in early May of 2021 when my business partner said to me, “have a look into this Chia thing and see what you think, I might want to get into it” and I agreed to take a quick look. Well, about 3 hours later, I had deleted just about everything from all my hard drives and was generating my first plot.
