I am struck by the unfortunate coincidence of the name of the Swedish currency, the current pandemic ravaging China, and the confluence in computer generated currency and computer viruses. There's a joke there, but it's terrible, and I'm not touching it.

Thanks!

lol. Don't ask me why, but now I've got "My Sharona" running through my head...

Amazing. Less than an hour ago I was thinking of how to rewrite the lyrics.
