“It was $60 before being retired in 2021. Then by about a year and a half of it being retired, it was $350,” O’Farrell said. “You’re talking about a 400% return on investment in a year and a half’s time.” “You could just buy the stuff, put it away somewhere in storage and just wait for the price to go up,” he said. “The workload is quite low.”
