New cryptocurrency launched in BHSc

The cryptocurrency craze has officially made its way into the faculty of Health Sciences with the launch of BHSCoin, a novel e-currency based on the LL framework. When asked to explain how BHSCoin works, a group of students looked at each other blankly, mumbling something about ‘blockchains’ before quickly departing. As students began to load up their purses, three of the most popular LL servers for mining (one coin per discussion post) were quickly established as Psychobiology, Health Systems and Health Policy, and the previously unused, Health, Attitude, and Behaviour. The Psychobiology server alone has racked up an astounding fifteen million posts. Our reporters reached out to Dr. Harry Czechman, former psychobiology professor, for comment on the record-breaking amount of posts. No comment was attained as it was found that, upon hearing the news, Dr. Czechman entered a comatose state. The nurse responsible for his care noted that his face has maintained a permanent grin.

With the rapidly gaining popularity of BHSCoin, some students have expressed concern about the methods used in mining, complaining of a dramatic decrease in the overall quality of LL posts. Allegedly, students have been offloading their accounts to partners in Russia for BHSCoin mining. Students cited a number of Psychobiology posts of a suspicious nature: “Is your dog happy?” “OH NO! IT’S FRIDAY THE 13TH!!! :O” “Coffee Naps” “Do Fish Sleep?” “Zzzzz: Naps!” “hugs” “Oooooohhhhmm [insert heart sutra – neural noise here” “Do you get HANGRY?” “OBESITY: BETRAYAL OF THE TONGUE” “How brain work?” and “Am I pragnant?”

Despite these potentially illicit mining techniques, the BHSc Office has made no comment. BHSCoin has continued to grow in popularity, and currently trades at somewhere between 0.2 and 1,253.3 CAD. More and more businesses have begun to accept its use as a legitimized currency (for instance, a single BHSCoin can be exchanged for one Ice Cold Can of Delicious. Refreshing. PepsiTM). The Procrastinator will continue to closely follow the rise of BHSCoin and will totally probably not use its sources for insider trading.
