In my opinion, it’s a colossal pump-and-dump scheme, the likes of which the world has never seen. In a pump-and-dump game, promoters “pump” up the price of a security creating a speculative frenzy, then “dump” some of their holdings at artificially high prices. And some cryptocurrencies are pure frauds. Ernst & Young estimates that 10 percent of the money raised for initial coin offerings has been stolen.

The losers are ill-informed buyers caught up in the spiral of greed. The result is a massive transfer of wealth from ordinary families to internet promoters. And “massive” is a massive understatement — 1,500 different cryptocurrencies now register over $300 billion of “value.”

lol...watching you two is entertaining

I agree. That's why I do it ;) It's fun when you know who the winner is. Just a toy at this point.

not even 20 degrees in IL

Yeah....... geography lesson. IL isn't Chicago. It mostly isn't if you've looked at a map. 0 Degrees this morning. It was beautiful. No shit, needles, bums, etc. in my area. No Karen's yelling at me to wear a mask. No traffic. I'm digging my day. Kids got tennis tonight. Life is great. I don't have to worry about spreadsheets either. Didn't know winning could be so much fun. It is. I wish others could experience it.

the quadruple whammy will push her over the edge today. Just too much for her to handle.
985   WookieMan   2021 Feb 8, 9:18am  

You're at a computer concerned about my weather. I've won the battle. LOL!. You don't fucking get it. You don't get I don't care about crypto because I don't buy it. You're childish and care about my opinion. Again, I've won the battle. You're losing and will lose with crypto. Again, I won the battle. You're a spam bot for something you've never even invested in. Oh wait, again I won. Hard to keep winning. Call me Tom Brady ;)

the quadruple whammy hit like a nuclear bomb. he even forgot easiest math 80-28=72
probably shaky hands too

1) Tesla buying BITCOIN
2) Tesla accepting BITCOIN

4) shitty weather in IL

sis, you should have put your bucks in Bitcoin instead of LUV.

I know!
Thats part of the BSDS. The person with BSDS is so distressed that even the easiest math becomes an obstacle. Other symptoms are anger outbursts. A remedy would be to move to a state with more sun and/or to buy some satoshis.

Stay warm and keep saving @WookieMan

I know, I know, running to Patrick. Fuck off. @Patrick - There needs to be a strike count for quote manipulators. This guy is too afraid to even have a debate. Does he not realize that people can see what I actually wrote? How retarded can one be? Same image after same image. Link after link. The only content is negative. Has no other discussion of value in any other thread. Nauseating at this point.
991   Patrick   2021 Feb 8, 10:54am  

Huh, that is a good point. Quotes should not be editable, only selectable and include-able. I will see if I can do this.

I also suggest not engaging with the guy. He thrives on the conflict.

Thats 1.5B that we know of....what about SpaceX. its not publicly traded and therefore no SEC filing. Also, we dont know how much Bitcoin was bought by Elon Musk personally. We only know Bitcoin and all of crypto is skyrocketing in price.

@Patrick
so many people told WookieMan this. He cant stop posting on Bitcoin threads. Its an obsession. That's why he absolutely hates bullish Bitcoin news and people sharing this. I call it a Bitcoin derangement syndrome.

Name names. You and cash. That's about it for active users. Why is that? #Spam #clickbait

99% of users come for conversation. Sure argument happens, we just don't spam the site. Simple as that. Argue otherwise or shut up.
998   Bitcoin   2021 Feb 8, 11:30am  

I called it. the tesla buying Bitcoin news was too much for him. Only one thing left for him....anger outbursts. He just cant help himself. No matter how many people tell him. Its an obsession (Bitcoin derangement syndrome). Very self destructive.

What outbursts? I'm the only civil one in this back and forth. Why? I don't worry or care about crypto. I care about the people that get sucked into the scheme you're promoting. That's where my loyalty lies. Stopping bull shit.

What would help is if you buy some satoshis. Maybe convert your portfolio of 100 shares of Luv.

I don't buy losers. Up 20% on my position. Not complaining nor would I care if it was down 20%. Beauty is I can lose it and not care, just like Musk.

LUV and Chase pay me to travel the hemisphere instead of sitting in my basement looking at paper gains. Hell, we all know there are no gains, but it's fun to play along. You should try.

The bad part of making someone look like an idiot is that it doesn't make one look too smart.

In other words; when you wrestle a pig you both end up muddy but the pig likes it.

I occasionally play the lotto when it gets stupid big. I buy a quick pic and put it in my wallet, a real wallet not a flash drive. I usually leave it there for a while because I know my chances of winning.

Now if the winning ticket was worth $200,000,000 and 100,000,000 tickets were sold that would make the market cap of the lotto $2,000,000,000,000,000.

Somebody check my math.

Has anyone checked my math?
1006   Onvacation   2021 Feb 8, 1:29pm  

Can anyone explain how a crypto currency can even have a valid "market cap"?

I don't believe there's a conflict though. I'll keep engaging unless you ask me not to explicitly. It's your site. I've kept it non-personal 95% of the time. I simply don't want other idiots to get sucked into the scheme. The fallout from this pump, during this time is going to destroy a lot of lives. Including some here. It happened in Dec 2017. It's the same cycle. The same hype. It ends bad for people. Plenty of crypto "investment" is being thrown on credit cards by people that get sold by shit like what is posted here.

I like the site and just don't want to see it go down the rabbit hole of penny/crypto pumping and dumping shit.

Onvacation says

You know as well as I do these guys are here for SEO linking and spamming. G/Newbie123 posts the fucking google search graph for crypto almost daily. They think they're market movers and heck they may even be paid to do so. Given a daily email of what to post. They don't invest in crypto. I like that you fight it and question it though.

If they can't answer 3rd grade math questions, they're obviously spam at this point. They can't even answer if they've been on vacation ;) They haven't. And they're jealous with pretend paper gains. It's sad. I just don't want to see them suck other people into a losers game.

Like a store of value?

Why do you suppose Musk dumped a ton of money on a months supply of "mined" bitcoins? It would explain the bump. Do you think he thinks it's a store of value? The currency of the future? A gamble to double his money?
1014   Onvacation   2021 Feb 9, 5:04pm  

I think Musk is smarter than to HODL. I still do. Maybe he's transferring some wealth to some blackmailers that have video of him smoking pot?

Tesla buying 1.5B worth of Bitcoin is just the best news. Thank you Elon! And thanks to all Tesla shareholders who indirectly pump my Bitcoin

Enjoy paying for weather. Free flights versus CA government, income taxes through the roof, overpriced housing, paying pensions for deadbeats, shit on the street, needles etc. I'll take my annual 60% gain as a high income earner living in IL. I also don't live here close to 3 months of the year. I know, you like monotonous lifestyle, brown shrubbery and full of illegals.

I hope someday you stop trying to justify the fact you're invested in nothing. Your state or crypto. You've been burned.

I would pay more in a heartbeat! Living in Socal is priceless. For no money would I move to IL after seeing shitty day after shitty day. It clearly shows the negative impact on people like you (@WookieMan). Mentioning sunshine triggers you. Every. time.
Sometimes you have to look at ones misery to appreciate even more the Socal living.

Thanks Sissy!

Obviously. LOL! Keep enjoying losing 40% out of the gate by living in CA for every $1 you earn. Not sure if you earn any, but either way, point stands. Let's say you're being honest (you're not). I make a higher ROI than you do living in IL. Unless you want to tell us you don't make money? If you don't make money how did you get BTC? Mom and Dad would be my first guess.

Hmmm.... now that I think about it. What field do you work in? Can't believe I haven't asked the most obvious question. My business is in construction. I also deal in real estate and media. What do you do Mr. Crypto thousandaire?
