A Meme. The first half shows a screenshot of the game "Banana" on Steam, showing how it weighs 1.89 Gigabytes. The second half shows a couple of native americans talking on a snowy landscape while inspecting footprints on the snow.

Native A: A western game dev has been here. Native B: How can you tell? Native A: It weighs 1.89 Gigabytes.

Without checking, is it a bitcoin miner?

No, it's a steam item miner

EDIT: to explain, clicking the banana gives you random "Steam Inventory" items, that players can sell on the marketplace The entire thing is just money laundry

I've never understood that weird market... Why the fuck is anyone buying that shit?

Low-fee way to transfer currency out of Russia, China, Iran etc.

FOMO The entire reason why people buy is the thought they could sell for more to people that also want to buy to sell for more
