Notable students

gollark: SC and krist itself don't have companies, meaningfully.
gollark: If you had, I don't know, a service which takes krist and sends it back to you a day later for whatever unfathomable purpose, then if someone wants to just feed that 5KST, they can't due to the fee.
gollark: It would make it not very usable as a way to do small transactions.
gollark: 30 what per minute?
gollark: Yes, that is option 1, charge the person who creates a script.
