The U.S. government once issued a $100,000 bill. This bill featured a portrait of Woodrow Wilson and was used only for transactions between Federal Reserve Banks. It was never circulated among the general public. Issued in 1934, it was the largest denomination of U.S. currency ever created and remains one of the rarest and most unusual pieces of American monetary history.

Euler's number (≈ 2.71828...) is related to compound interest.
Consider making a loan of 1 BTC that yields 100% in a given time period. At the end of the loan term, you would receive your principal (1 BTC) and interest (1 BTC) for a total of 2 BTC.
What if the debt compounded twice, rather than just once? The 1 BTC would yield 0.5 BTC for the first half of the loan term. This 1.5 BTC would then yield 0.75 BTC for the second half, for a total of 2.25 BTC at the end of the loan.
Thus, increasing the rate of compounding increases the final yield. If the compounding is done continuously, where interest is being accumulated at all times, you would receive 2.71828... BTC at the end of the loan term.
That being said, don't loan out your bitcoin, ya dingus!

###Uruguay really has 4 World Championships? The Uruguay shirt with four stars on its shield may be surprising, but it has an explanation that, however, raises some controversy among rival teams. There are not many who can match this score. We are talking about one of the great teams in the history of football.
Follow the Uruguay - South Korea match in group H at the Qatar 2022 World Cup live
The South American country wears a star for the 1930 World Cup, the first to be held, and then for the 1950 World Cup, where it became champion with the Maracanazo. However, the other two stars commemorate the titles of the 1924 and 1928 Olympic Games.
FIFA organized the football discipline in those Olympic Games held in Paris and Amsterdam respectively and Uruguay won both. Without a doubt, La Celeste dominated world football for a decade with absolute authority.
The FIFA museum in the Swiss city of Zurich confirms this fact and classifies it as a world championship: “By winning Olympic gold in 1924 and 1928, and the World Cup in 1930, Uruguay achieved a hat-trick of world titles.” . However, the great football body in 2021 asked Uruguay to remove two stars from its shirt. The South American country appealed and defended its position and was able to maintain all four to this day.

On March 11, 1958, a United States Air Force B-47 bomber accidentally dropped an unarmed Mk-6 atomic bomb on a farm in Mars Bluff, South Carolina (United States). The bomb was twice as powerful as the one that destroyed Hiroshima, but it didn't have its fissile nuclear core installed at the time. When it hit the ground, the bomb's conventional high explosives detonated, injuring six people and damaging several buildings. The Gregg family's home was particularly affected, with the house caving in on the mother and leaving her with cuts. The Air Force was sued by the victims' family, who received $54,000 in compensation, which is equivalent to $570,270 in 2023.

Imagine the FUD that people are concocting against Bitcoin. And imagine some altcoin getting close to $ 1 Million Dollars per unit. If this altcoin can get there Bitcoin can reach it as well. They thought that 864,000 is the market value. No it is not. It is the cost per 1 of those 42 Coins.
