In 1981 Elk Cloner created a program called the “Elk Cloner” which was developed for the Apple II Systems. It was created to infect Apple DOS 3.3. These programs were designed to spread through files and folders that were transferred to other computers via the floppy disk.
In 1983 the term “virus” was coined by Frederick Cohen. These were defined as computer programs that were infectious as they had a tendency to replicate themselves.
During this period Saturn was conjunct Pluto – it started on 21 Jan 1982 and ended on 26 Sep 1983.
We are approaching another cycle of Saturn conjunct Pluto. This period starts from 28 Feb 2019 and ends on 24 Nov 2020. These 2 planets are exact on 12 Jan 2020.
We need to mindful of computer viruses during this period. It could very well be described as another kind of war. I wonder what the impact will be on the cryptocurrencies?
