During World War II, despite the great heroic narratives, the technological background stands out for its improvisation, malfunctions and human perseverance. From locked guns to planes that flew only in a straight line, there was everything that could go wrong. The only thing that didn't change was the determination and obstinacy - on both sides - in defending what they believed and died! Of course, these failures stem from the speed, and often desperation, in having, on the field, technological superiority to gain ground or lose fewer lives. It is estimated that at least 1 in 5 British fleet planes crashed not because they were hit, but because of technological innovations that didn't always work! The pilots, mainly European, with more than 1500 years of stories of goblins, gnomes, elves and other little monsters that somehow sabotage everything, called, for the crashes of plane commands, little animals called Gremlins! Gremlins, therefore, are tiny creatures capable of sabotaging machinery and electrical cabling, in addition to attacking human life solely and exclusively for the pleasure of doing so. In 1943, Roald Dahl, British, a conscript pilot, during the war, after listening to the stories and experiencing some technical problems while flying the planes, decided to write a children's book about these animals. The book was more of a caricature, on the same level as the Grimm brothers' tales, but more technological. Walt Disney himself thought of producing an animated film about, but the Gremlins' sobriety lost out to Mickey's fantasy. In 1983, the search for film novelties (I remember that the 80s were sensational in relation to films that drew parallels with societies, given the polarity of the time) led Gremlins to fall into the hands of then executive producer Steven Spielberg. The latter, with the reticence of Warner Bros., took the initial script to Amblin, his production company. Spielberg had been involved with Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and his own movie: E.T., but was out of his comfort zone to make a comedy-horror film. The film is finished in 1984, with a low cost and an excellent later revenue. Released on the same day as Reitman's GhostBuster, the film came in second in the initial gross. It is about the adventures of Gizmo, a mogway: a species - initially sweet - it was photosensitive, which could not be fed after midnight or exposed to water. Nobody explained the reasons, even because the way this animal was acquired is excusable. The film itself demonstrates the American atmosphere of the 1980s: fresh out of a deep recession, unemployed middle class (the protagonist's own father being an inventor, to support the family), shrouded in a certain polarized paranoid, with moral values ​​affected by Vietnam war and strong commercial capitalist demand (the entire film looks like a bunch of American brand billboards, used as anti-communist propaganda of the time!). In this environment, the rules are transgressed and the fluffy animal, when wet, multiplies (causing the commercial reasoning to emerge: we can sell because the multiplication is almost free!). The gang that appears, demonstrates not so docile behavioral profiles, and then sabotages the clock to become something bigger! Then the mogwai turns into the gremlin - not the original Gizmo - but the rest. Turning into gremlins, they begin to threaten life and wreak havoc throughout the city. Also, the film goes to show that they wanted to multiply in the pool! In addition, he makes several criticisms of the established environment, using a fine balance between horror and comedy. Finally, in the real world, the film caused many changes: the film, released in June 1984, was considered too violent for the recommended age. Alongside Indiana Jones, caused controversy over scenes of violence and bloodshed! Spielberg goes to the controlling body and ponders a middle ground for the free rating and the 16-year rating. The 13-year movie rating was created! It was the only movie, in the world, that caused a change in ratings, and that persists to this day! Gremlins became a cultural hit of the same size at the time as Star Wars Jedi, Indiana Jones whip, Beverlly Hills cop Axel Rose, with Ridley Scott's Alien, with Mr. Star Trek's Spock and Cameron's T-700. These films marked an era and were absorbed, for the most different aspects, into the cultural mix of contemporary Western civilization: each one with its peculiarities. Today, germlins are attributed to naughty kids, messes, things that stop working for no reason, people who don't like light and even bathing. For the cost of the movie, it's a huge phenomenon. Which leads, again, to the conclusion that fewer special effects and more compelling acting and storylines do much more for a movie than a lot of money and today's infinite computing! Gremlins and cryptocurrencies have one thing in common: they can quickly multiply for almost zero cost, just look at the right triggers. As in gremlins, these cryptocurrencies that multiply without end, without ballast, without any identity, gain human traits and different affective appeals: coconuts, pandas, suicides, AIDS, refugees and so on. To appeal to people that if they buy such a coin, it will help the world! Almost always fake!!! Almost always helping only those who thought about this cryptocurrency... and as soon as they appear, they disappear. Just stop feeding! And so, again, like gremlins, the more they eat, if they go beyond a certain time, a certain volume on the sites, they see monsters that bully everyone who bet on them, trying to multiply again, get out of hand and eat more, more and more. Sometimes you see in the magical world of cryptocurrencies these gremlins, sometimes fluffy at first, sometimes investor-eating monsters, at a second time, wreaking havoc and sabotaging the reliability of the system as a whole! Unambiguously, if there are crypto-gremlins, there are those who throw water on them and who feed them after midnight. Only light kills these animals. Only light closes these cases. The light is investors' awareness of not feeding these monsters for quick gain. The light is the maintenance of a reliable digital financial system, in order to avoid the deceptions and deceptions of the simplest and those who enter this world innocently! Consciously, let us all be light, to destroy these creatures and avoid sabotage and death in this digital world! Responsibility, temporality, organization and information: paths to success in this crypto-world. Watch out for the gremlins! Whenever you have a pet, pay attention to how to treat it! You don't know what monster he can turn!
