My Journey to Possess Vine Coin

Naturally, I already possessed a way to buy crypto through Coinbase or Phantom Wallet on Android; however, none of these offered a way to buy Vine Coin directly. Therefore, I needed to buy Solana first and then buy Vine with Solana. This is commonly known as a swap.

1. Phantom on Android - Buy Solana with Venmo - Moonpay

a. Don't need the Moonpay app. Moonpay is integrated with Phantom.
b. There were many, many, many transaction failures before Phantom-Venmo-MoonPay completed successfully.
c. Of course, I could have bought Solana on Coinbase and sent it to
the address my Phantom wallet holds, but this would have required a 5 day wait time and multiple transaction fees

2. Once Venmo-Moonpay went through Phantom on Android - Swap Solana for Vine on Mint address:

3. Phantom on Android screenshot five days after performing a swap of $200 Sol for $200 Vine.

4. Do I throw good money after bad?

iTunes sync music greyed out options

I don't want to sync from a new Windows installation and erase my aged iPod. So I had to figure out how to manually add music (mp3) files while not disturbing what is already there. See series of screen shots that eventually led to the file being successfully added without a full on sync.
