This is the most exciting round that I have witnessed so far. Usually the top contender is at the top from the beginning up until the granting of bounty. But this round is interesting since you climb from the bottom and eventually you reached the top. Congratulations. @0xbitcoiner
thanks!
How is that possible?
The limit of 8 decimal places in Bitcoin's core software means the total supply will never quite reach 21 million.

Do you know that if you weighed all the ants in the world, their total mass would be roughly equal to the weight of all the humans on earth? With over 10 quadrillion ants on the planet, these tiny creatures outnumber us a million to one. So while we are busy building cities and exploring space, the ants are quietly running their own underground empires with intricate tunnels, teamwork and even agricultural techniques. In a way, they are the unsung superheroes of the animal kingdom — small but mighty and everywhere.

The largest flower in the world emits a scent of rotting flesh. Its presence in botanical gardens is rare, and even rarer is that to bloom. However, when it does, As has happened in the Botanical Garden of the Kiel University in Germany, becomes a remarkable event. It is the Amorphophallus
titanum, also known as "corpse flower" due to its foul smell of rotten meat, which has
began its ephemeral flowering of just three
days. This specimen has taken 15 years to
to flourish, since this plant, native to the rainforests of Sumatra (Indonesia), is
extremely demanding. Before flowering,
It can weigh more than 40 kilograms and reach up to three meters in height. The purpose of its unpleasant aroma, which only persists during the first day of its flowering, is to attract Pollinating insects, mainly flies, who are deceived into mistaking the stench of the plant with the decomposing corpses. of its unpleasant aroma, which only persists during the first day of its flowering, is to attract Pollinating insects, mainly flies, who are deceived into mistaking the stench of the plant with the decomposing corpses.

A fun fact about Friday is that the day is named after the Norse goddess Frigg (or Frigga),
associated with love, beauty, and fertility. In many languages, including English, the word for Friday comes from her name.
In other cultures, it's associated with Venus, the Roman goddess of love, which is why in Romance languages like Spanish and Italian, Friday is called "viernes" (from Venus).
Humans are made from stardust.
Every atom in your body From oxygen in the lungs to calcium in the bones It was created in the heart of a star that exploded as a supernova millions of years ago, so you are actually made from the same elements that were once formed. Forming stars in the universe! Every human being on Earth is connected to the universe in such an extraordinary way.

Mayor of small Italian village forbids his citizens from dying
There is a small municipality called Falciano del Massico, Italy, where it has been officially ‘forbidden to die’ since 2012.
The mayor had issued an ordinance banning residents from dying because the local cemetery was full and there was no land available to expand it.
It had been a way to bring the country to the attention of national and international media.
