A newbie won't reach whole coiner status without immense resources and ability to generate resources at this time.  I convert $1CAD every hour on the hour.  That's $24/day.  That's also basically one fairly fancy large pizza per day.  There was a time when one pizza equated to 5000 btc (10k for 2 pizzas) in 2010.  At current exchange of 1 pizza, or $24CAD, that will take 11 years!  And as that progresses it will get further and further away...

But the goal needs not be "whole coiner" status.  So I do appreciate the tone of "1 sat at a time".
