Hi everyone-

What's the correct pronunciation of Casascius?     Huh

cas-E-us?
cas-ASH-e-us?
cas-ASS-e-us?
something else?

Thanks in advance!

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

It is properly pronounced “ka-SAY-shuss”, though I am not bothered by the variations I hear.

C can be soft like in celery or circus. Or hard like corn or crazy.

K is always hard like karate or kangaroo... unless silent when followed by an N like knee or knob.

English is a silly language  Huh

Someone should write the way it is properly pronounced using words so the people with English has a second or third language can say it right

Like

It's pronounced like with the C in corn, the a in the apple, and the s in the sam
So "corn" - "apple" "sam" would be CAS
