It's up to you to find what you consider to be the biggest risk. Niv Davidovich I guess I'm I'm somewhat tainted, because the things that I deal with are either the expensive evictions or the expensive or difficult habitability claims.

J Darrin Gross I'd like to ask you, Gary Eastman, what is the BIGGEST RISK?

Beau Turner Well, I think the Bitcoin network itself is very challenging to find any sort of risk in, and I think that would be surprising to most people to hear.
