You are your own bank.

Do you still think your "wallet" contains "coins"?

How you gonna make digital gold into wedding rings?

Can bitcoin exist without REAL silver and gold?

A fool and his (sorry for assuming gender) money are soon parted.

Newbie123 says

Pretty entertaining to watch. I do like Peter Schiff....and his gold card.

Right? I mean right? Jesus, he's unlistenable. Was there not a better bitcoin pumper they could have found?

The WWII cigarette analogy destroyed this "debate" around 19:00. Right?

This guy seriously just argued around 27:00 that you should trust a google search algorithm. lol! Right?

I'm not a gold bug, but Schiff destroys this guy. Right?

The debate is useless though without anyone disclosing their holdings. Both are pumping what they want to increase in price. Although I'd take gold before bitcoin...



Right?

Anonymous.... lol. I guess 300 people will just defend themselves in court that their child pedo habit was totally anonymous? They got the wrong guy? One reason I like bitcoin, dipshit's will think it's anonymous and we can throw their asses in jail. Another reason the value will continue to drop long term. Illicit fucks won't trust it anymore.

Bitcoin breaks $7500! Buy the dip! Or be priced out FOREVER!

Back up the truck, folks!

@Newbie123, where are you? Busy buying the dip?

Newbie123 says

@liberal_in_blackface Totally agree! It was another great buying opportunity. It always is! Only people like Wookie_”man” sell when it retraces. And while those bitcoin haters/no coiners were hoping bitcoin will go to zero, smart people added to the position.

Remember, bitcoin died many times ;) in fact thousands of times....and look where we are now.

Why double-posting? Trembling hands?

Newbie123 says

Trembling hands could def be. Drinking at the pool since a few hours

Trying to drown your mounting loses in booze? Is our resident "MJ to the Moon" guy drinking there with you?

Fox biz was pumping it today. Saying brilliant things like, "You don't even have to know the fundamentals to know it's about to take off by looking at the chart".

It's gonna hockey stick any day now; to the moon!

It's a manipulated market by the few that hold the most. So they decide when the hockey stick starts and cash out when they've made bank. That is evident now.

At my age crypto was all the rage 2 years ago with my peers. I've not heard 1 person talk about it in person the last 6 months. The only conversation was with my one good buddy who is a financial moron that was selling all his mining equipment... at a loss.

Newbie123 says

Yes, historically, a golden cross has been extremely bullish for the price.

The increased media coverage is also due to the price trading above 10k and the halving coming up in May.

lol. Down 20% since this comment. I suppose you "loaded up the truck" and are going to the moon.

Just buy real assets. It's not complicated.

Newbie123 says

Guys, is now a good time to buy?

Absolutely. Go buy as much as you can. And don't forget to make screenshots of your holdings, because we'll ask next time you come peddling this shit.

Oh, btw, how about these screenshots of your past winnings you promised to show?

I wouldn't rush (fomo) to buy BTC but at the same time not opposed I own a bit of JIC cryptos. The way I see it there is plenty of time to see how much if any of the halving has already been priced in. Top that off with the USD is so likely to make a tear higher and if I am proven right there will be plenty of discount pricing in BTC. Bitcoiners will find that the USD behind BTC/USD has real meaning.

Newbie123 says

You have an overwhelming amount of people here who absolutely hate bitcoin. They can’t help themselves but get triggered very easily.

BTC guy getting triggered before anyone has even said anything... That's the ultimate trigger. Lol.

Newbie123 says

For our gold bugs

Still no screenshots of your winnings? Why? Because there are no winnings, bwahahahahahaha!

Newbie123 says

Hehe, I knew that meme would be a hit. Lol

Nobody gives a fuck about gold. Or that balding dude. We are simply annoyed by some loser trying to pump his losing "investment" in futile hope to pare his losses.

Using time tested and applicable market theory I am afraid to tell you USD could smash BTC easily as well as Gold due to mass deflation.

On a retest of that last high I am personally looking to dump in all the FOMO buying that may take place starting at 10400+/- and up to near 11k if I get it.

That and/or you can cherry pick one guy that got lucky and point to that as an investment strategy. Schiff still has his money/value. Many other gold bugs do as well (side note I've never touched gold investments).

There are many people that have lost their assess bigly in crypto. How about showing their pictures? If you took the median crypto "investor" I'd guess 70% or so are on the negative side of the balance sheet with poorly timed trades. You're simply giving your money to billionaires, with very high risk trading/investing in crypto of any kind. Make your money, but as covid says, you seem to be pumping and have shown zero proof you have one US dollar (lol) invested in crypto.

Newbie123 says

We {I} don't hate bitcoin. I do find it amusing that the little people think they can make a killing on it.

When's the moon shot?

Newbie123 says

Covid shmovid you are not annoyed, you are just mad your prediction/hopes of bitcoin going to zero seem to not play out ;) Sry buddy

Pretty sure I'm ignored, but whatever. I don't believe I've read a single comment on this forum that said it "should" be zero or is "going" to zero. It's a worthless long term investment. Time will tell the truth. But worthless doesn't mean you cannot make money off of fools.

You're the one that seems triggered out the gate after BTC being down for a while there champ and taking a break from the forum. You came out fighting yourself before a word was even said. Insecure about your investment much?

WookieMan says

doesn't mean you cannot make money off of fools.

And if you don't know who the fool is...

It's not foolish to not buy bitcoin. We can still cash out our fiat accounts for bitcoin IF it becomes the "currency of the future".

Onvacation says

It's not foolish to not buy bitcoin

I agree with this statement. Actually for investors who like to be very diversified buying current selling isn't a bad Idea to park some cash and hold as a hedge with reasonable SL 9 k+/- or there about which I actually don't see price hitting that low but of coarse it could $8800+/- is a bit of a magnet on the downside. I see $15000 1st strike and $23000 2nd. I personally have no faith BTC will take over fiat or even be the 1 digital king in the end game for many reasons however with the current perception scared FOMO money is the best $$$ and could make BTC move fast and furious, and no Obummer needed to make it happen. I believe there is still enough movement and room to acquire house shares and harvest a persons original investment.

Newbie123 says

Bitcoin over 11k lol

What happened to the no-coiners and bitcoin haters? And ALL those people that predicted bitcoin will go to zero?

Lol. Finally recovered to June 2019 prices during one of the best economies until COVID. Congrats. You know the numbers the prior year. 2 years of nothingness unless you’re short term trading it. Almost every asset class performed better from June 2018 until COVID. Like I said, congrats on making the big bucks.

Except he bought at $19K for all we know. We've never seen a single screen shot from him proving otherwise.

Hahahaha wookieman! Is still around! I must have him on ignore. Isn’t that the guy who said at 4K “ready to eject?”

Rofl!!

$100k versus $4k of US dollars. I’m still closer...

Rolf!!

LOL, everytime that shit ticks up desperate HODLers come out of the woodwork to stoke FOMO in the general population in an attempt to recoup their losses.

Newbie123 says

I bet the bitcoin haters mentioned that BTC pulled back a few days ago but they don’t mention that it’s back over 11.5k now, right?

I don't know why I keep biting. BTC is toast long term. When the 21M coins get mined it's game over. You know this, but don't want to admit it. Transactions will literally stop as there's no reason for the spreadsheet to keep going. The idea of a digital resource becoming more valuable as it becomes more scarce is a joke. Certain industries need diamonds, gold, silver, etc. No one "needs" BTC. No one. And even the commodities I mention, we can go without and find alternatives and those alternative commodities then become more valuable.

Finite resources get replaced by science and ingenuity. Bitcoin is a childs game that was likely created and manipulated by some video game maker. Didn't realize it would become popular and is now manipulating the market probably holding half the coins. You're just a character in their game, you don't know it though. I'd actually consider trading BTC, but it's a rigged game. Fuck no on holding though. That's pure stupidity at levels that put you on the short bus.

Got to find a greater fool to make money on bitcoin. If your holding bitcoin for the future and you don't know who the fool is it's probably you.

The next bitcoin bull run is going to hurt bitcoin haters and no coiners. It’s going to blow their mind :

How?

Not expecting a cogent answer.

Who cares. If you're just doing standard practices and maxing out 401k's and Roths if you don't get a pension, you'll be just fine. Yes, morons can get rich doing stupid things, but you're better off playing lotto in most cases. And then as most lotto winners do, fuck up and can't manage money because they were losers with it before they got rich by buying lotto tickets.

@Patrick - Don't know if this would be a minor tweak or a big one. Anyway to add ignore to a thread/op instead of a blanket ignore of the user? And not ignore the thread/op, but just that user within said thread/op.

Even though Newbie has me on ignore, there has been a topic or two where I like his thoughts. This one being the opposite of that. But being the bigger man I can acknowledge when someone has some decent thoughts. And yes, I know I could just ignore it, but I do like seeing others opinions on things like crypto without them waving around their jazz hands.

Basically, would it be at all possible to ignore Newbie within this thread, but still read others comments on this thread AND still see Newbie's stuff in other threads? Ignoring him would just block everything of his/hers if I understand correctly.

@WookieMan It's kinda hard. I can see the use, but it's kind of an edge case.

Patrick says

WookieMan It's kinda hard. I can see the use, but it's kind of an edge case.

Happens a lot though. I just don't like to bitch, but I'm obviously doing that now. Of recent the Covid threads have been bad. You can measure the weight of a gallon of water, but we have users that say you're wrong about the weight just because. I can live with that because I know some people still believe the earth is flat. Some of those people still have valid thoughts on other topics though that aren't batshit crazy.

Ignore works great for the trolls/bots. But I'm hesitant to use ignore on people that are just misinformed on one specific topic. Not to pick on a user, but some of Rin's OP's I could do without. But he has extremely intelligent things to say about other stuff besides massive tits and dolls. If I blanket ignore I miss the good nuggets.

I'll be honest and know I'm not supposed to, but Newbie is a moron when it comes to crypto. I'm willing to acknowledge that he has valid thoughts on other topics though (not so much on policing and we know about BTC). If I had the ability to ignore those individual posts, I think it would be a positive. I don't code, but would it be too much to add ignore to the original post and just have it disappear from your feed?

Where's the fun in that?

Some people's posts barely deserve a scan, much less trying to make sense of their nonsense. We all know who they are.

Bitcoin has been cookin lately, wow

https://news.yahoo.com/us-said-federal-agents-seized-183850482.html

federal agents from various agencies were able to capture all 150 of the crypto accounts and redirect donated funds to bitcoin wallets operated by the US government.

That can't be! Crypto will allow the building of Galt's Gulch where everything goes and Silk Road v51.4.3 (the other 50 being shut down by gov) to be legal and the Statists won't be able to stop us! Pot Coin to $10k/USD!
