I’m on the latest version of iOS (15.1.1) and it doesn’t load for me either. Perhaps the server hosting the video file is overloaded?

In fairness to the present, the first post on HN about bitcoin[1] had 3 comments: 1) this is amazing and will save humanity 2) this is dumb no one will ever use it 3) this is confusing That ratio doesn’t seem that much different than recent

Send me your bitcoins and I’ll buy food and have it sent to you. I’m sure you’ll find many others willing to take your bitcoin in exchange for helping you buy what you need or provide the services you require.
