Bitcoin doesnt grow on a farm

Of course not!

See, even onvacation learns....and thats probably why he bought Bitcoin now. Education wins. You would hope wookie would learn slowly but his learning curve is more like a flat line.

How many satoshis do you own?

My satoshis are worth approximately 17/100ths of a cent in US fiat money. It's hard to keep track.

I am glad you finally bought a fraction of a Bitcoin, onvacation! Congrats!

Of course! Your comments are the most hilarious ones on here.

"I'm good with 9%" oh yeah, so how much have you invested, in order to make a 9% a six figure gain? Since you also said, you only care about "six figure gains"

"Bitcoin is not backed by anything" No shit Sherlock. Thats the point of being decentralized.

"Artificial Scarcity" No shit Sherlock. How could a digital asset be "naturally" scarce?

Keep the BS coming. Apparently, you don't care how idiotic you sound.

Your comments have been quite entertaining. Keep the BS coming.

"I would have sold everything at 18k" Oh really, you said this right after the correction occurred. A 7 year old can call a local top after the event happened. But why would you have sold "EVERYTHING" if you only care about 6 figure gains?

"I'm good with 9%" Oh really, so how much have you invested to make the 9% a six figure gain. Since you said, you only care about 6 figure gains, big shot? We'll never see a screenshot! Especially funny, since you dont own even a fraction of one BTC.

"Bitcoin is not backed by anything" no shit, the entire point of being decentralized.

"articifical scarcity" noooo shit. How could a digital asset be naturally scarce?

I dont know if you can top this, but we'll see.

I can't wait until my bitcoin holdings reach a penny in fiat.

Buying Bitcoin is a great first start onvacation. Now you are invested and continue to learn.

Gambled. I'm a nickel slot kind of guy.

When's the moonshot?

G36 says

Oh really, so how much have you invested to make the 9% a six figure gain. Since you said, you only care about 6 figure gains, big shot?

Hundreds of thousands. Multiple avenues. I like real estate. We have your standard 401k between the wife and I, both having made 6 figure gains the last 3 years. That wouldn't have happened with BTC over the last 3 year outside of day trading. Sorry. It's not the best asset class by a long shot. It's comical to call it an asset or investment as you guys do.

I'm not a big shot by any means. I save. I don't gamble. I operate a business. I have plenty of skills and means to make large sums of money and not go for a Hail Mary with crypto. I sleep well at night unlike everyone I know that holds crypto. It's delusional. I've made more off passive investments the last three years than any of the crypto cult. Enjoy the pump now. Comes down faster than it went up. I've seen this story before and you guys that gloat about paper gains, but then shit your pants the second the big boys start selling. You ain't a big boy and you'll be the one losing the most. Not sure how many ways I can warn you. Happened last time and that tool disappeared when he lost his ass in BTC on this forum.

So you told us you would have sold everything at 18k but tell us you only care about six figure gains. How does that make any sense?
You tell us about these alleged six figure gains without any screenshots but tell us you are fine with 9% gains. Sure, big shot. Sure.

Btw., Thanks for showing us your ignorance once again:

"Sorry. It's not the best asset class by a long shot."

Reading buddy. Reading....

Crypto did nothing for three years. Same will happen again. I made more money in stocks and real estate than anyone invested in BTC the last 3 years. I don't dox myself and I'm too lazy to make up screen shots like you did. Enjoy the ride. Ultimately you'll freak out and be catching falling knives when your tiny vacation paper gains turns into a loss. You'd move on from commenting back at me if you weren't scared. You are. You should be. I'm solid and doing well. No need to chase get rich quick schemes. Just rich for my age.

ROFL, sure, big shot, everyone can make up stuff online. Now you are telling us you have outperformed Bitcoin? Just recently you told us you are fine with 9%.

your story gets wilder and wilder. You just cant keep a story straight or stick with anything you said.

For your education/perspective:

G36 says

Yup.

They even made up some online "currencies" to fool some rubes into thinking it was as good as BETTER than gold.

Yes, its much better than gold. Bitcoin is gold 2.0. / Digital Gold. You know how divisible it is, how scarce, how decentralized. Probably the reason why you started investing in it. And, its smart money! programmable! Try connecting your silver coin or 100 dollar bill to a laptop. Lol.

G36 says

Wookie, no comment, big shot?

I am kinda torn on bitcoins, but the graph here seems to be created by bitcoin fans for bitcoin fans. How come gold is centralized? And how come its supply is moderate? Also, at this point saying that bitcoins are "easily transactable" is wrong - I can't pay with them at my grocery store.

gold is moderate in "predictable supply". You think you found it all until you discover more. Cant happen with Bitcoin.
Thats not the meaning of easily transactable. You can send crypto/Bitcoin within seconds on an app. You cant just send someone gold within seconds. What you pay for with Bitcoin is a totally different criteria. Bitcoin is seen as a store of value, not as a day-to-day currency.
Think about it this way, why should I have paid with a few bitcoins for a cup of coffee a few years ago? Now, I can buy a car with it.
I would never want to spend my precious Bitcoins because a year later they are worth multiple times more. Its an excellent inflation hedge.

G36 says

Incredible. Leaked Citibank report reveals Citibank analysts estimate Bitcoin will rocket to 300k by end of 2021! Imagine what that will do to the haters who hope it will go to zero. Lol

Why do people assume that they found something that was "leaked" instead of concluding that they may be reading propaganda in which, supposedly, data was "leaked"? The only time you MIGHT be reading data that was leaked is when it shows the company in a bad light or shows criminal intent.

You know how simple it is to destroy a cryptocurrency? There's just a few major exchanges, all you need to do is turn those servers off, and the blockchain ends. Destroy those servers and that the data is unrecoverable.

My bet is that much of the information for these exchanges are actually on virtual machines. Consider the possibility that are stored on AWS - Amazon WebServer.

You don't know who created these, you don't understand the math, you've never moved any "currency" from one wallet to another. This is clearly a Ponzi scheme, however, people got rich off from Ponzi schemes too.

sleek Litecoin credit card.
buy anything with crypto. Mass adoption is happening rapidly.

Yes, I have moved Bitcoin from wallet to wallet. Easy.
Shut exchanges down? Sure, go for it. Wake us up when it happens.
The US government has a clear interest in another crypto boom. Higher tax revenues. More jobs. Either we do it in the US or let China run the show. Your comments were not well thought-out.

G36 says

Higher tax revenues.

More contradiction with each post. How is it "highly decentralized" if it can be taxed? Lol. Our government can take your home if you don't pay taxes on gains. Crypto or otherwise That's not decentralized by any means. Unless you're trading flash drives and pieces of paper and passwords with BTC on it, the government knows what you're doing using exchanges. Anything that touches a computer or server is trackable and traceable. Unless it's deleted, which in BTC hardware wallet means you lost all your money.

G36 says

Shut exchanges down? Sure, go for it. Wake us up when it happens.

It will. And it will happen when you least expect it. You likely won't be awake actually. Stop losses won't prevent massive losses because they'll get blown through. You'll be sleeping and at 3pm in China the rug will get pulled out from under you.

Your confidence is cracking. With each comment that is valid against Crypto, you get even more defensive. Dbr6 pointed out flaws and you jumped on him right away. "Your comments were not well thought-out." Who does that? You can post charts from other websites until you're fingers go numb, but you've yet to explain how and why BTC will go to $300k. Links to coin desk and the like are pure propaganda as other users have mentioned. Why do YOU think it will go to $300k? No links. No copy paste. YOU explain it.

G36 says

Yes, I have moved Bitcoin from wallet to wallet. Easy.

Sure it's easy. What did it cost you to do it? What was the transaction fee, and how long did it take?

In the early days it was free, today, it's not. It's always been time consuming.

It's not workable as a currency simply because of the transaction time. You can reduce transaction time by offering to increase the fee for the transaction. If many people try to make transactions, the fees are untenable. Blockchains are nothing more than distributed databases, and in order to access them in a timely manner, there is a cost and the faster you want to do a transaction, the more expensive it is to do.

It's not a currency at all. It's just a scam, but you can make lots of money off from a scam I admit. It will never replace the current system because of the length of time to do transactions. It's a curse to realize a problem well before anybody else does. I know the system cannot work, but most people do not realize it won't work, so there is opportunity there, but I consider it immoral to take advantage of ignorance so I do not engage. Morality + knowledge = poverty. That's the world I live in. Ethics is severely punished.

richwicks says

Which is what everyone has been telling this guy, yet he gets so defensive and starts bashing people on their first interaction. It's a sign of being weak and scared. Worried.

There's also the fact it/he keeps mentioning that "we" don't have BTC. How do they know? Every link is to a site that has the word coin, crypto, etc. included in the URL. Biased much? Convinced he's a spammer at this point. This happened last time and it came crashing down shortly after. I predicted the same happens this round with maybe a slightly higher high. But maybe a bigger low as there's no confidence in BTC. A 2nd round of getting burned will put it in the shitter for a while.

I would call it gold 2.0. / Digital Gold. Much better as physical gold as the "traits of money" show.

Wookie, you dont know what you are saying. Nothing ties together.




and more BS "every URL has coin in it"

Citibank estimates it will go to 300k by 2021.

it could go to 100, 200, 300k. By 2026 it could be a million. Come up with your own thoughts??? Are you special or something?
More bidders than sellers on a scarce asset? Hope I simplified that enough for you. All the news about institutions investing in Bitcoin has gone right by you, right? I bet you havent read one article about Bitcoin ever in your life.

I am pretty sure that you have never heard about Paypal either, right? So Paypal, square etc investing in Bitcoin obviously doesnt mean anything to you.

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/24/square-and-paypal-emerge-as-whales-in-the-crypto-market-.html

You don't read. That's fine. Enjoy crypto. lol.

rofl. now I don't read? You havent read a single article!

Whenever you are at a loss of words, you say "enjoy" or "have fun".
Why would you think it hasnt been fun?

My holdings go up in value, outperforming any other asset and haters like you post laughable comments:

"Artificial scarcity" .....no shit
"not backed by anything" ....no shit
"would have sold everything at 18k".....you dont even own half a BTC
"I am fine with 9%".....cute
"I only care about 6 figure gains".....rofl....afford 1BTC, then talk

It is possible, but perhaps not true, that he's paid to promote this. He may be paid to market cryptocurrencies. If this is the case, don't hate him, simply understand what is. He also may genuinely believe this is a good investment. We cannot know.

I know bitcoin is not another currency, but it's value may go to unimaginable values. It might be good to get in now so long as you sell before it crashes. I do not think this is an appropriate way to make money, even if I knew the scam and this is a scam. It's not usable as a currency.

It's a game of investing in Tulips. If you get in and out at the right time, you're rich, but if you wait too long, you're destroyed. I just see a tulip though. Imagine, once a tulip could buy a house - incredible wealth inequality back then. Even today, nothing compares.

richwicks says

. I do not think this is an appropriate way to make money, even if I knew the scam and this is a scam. It's not usable as a currency.

A very power hungry scam that has no practical use. It is dependent on the greater fool to get money out of the system as the money going in is consumed on hardware, electricity, wages, hookers and blow.

There is no there there.

Richwicks,

"If you get in and out at the right time, you're rich, but if you wait too long, you're destroyed"

You could have gotten into Bitcoin at any time for the last 11 years and would be in profit or break even since we basically hit new all time highs on some exchanges the other day.

Two questions for you (which you wont answer):
1) Do you know what decentralized means? I'll dumb it down. There is no marketing department for Bitcoin, there is no CEO, no CFO. So who would be paying me to promote to buy Bitcoin? Honest question, I would love to reach out to that person/entity/department.

2) Are tulips smart, decentralized, scarce? When you try plugging in your tulip to a laptop, could you please video it and post here?

G36 says

Look, I don't need to get involved with a scam even if it makes me wealthier. It's immoral to steal money from the ignorant. It's immoral to be involved with a Ponzi scheme. I'm not entirely immoral. It's the same reason I wouldn't purchase Facebook.

I'm not saying somebody is paying you to promote bitcoin, but if you were being paid, you'd be working for a bank that had a shitload of bitcoin and you'd be PR directed to drive up the price. You won't be on this little forum though.

G36 says

No, it's just a mania.

G36 says

Just because you have a graphic doesn't make it true. Bitcoin is NOT fungible. If a million people tried to move 1 bitcoin from one wallet to another, it would take months to complete the transactions, regardless of cost. A million is a TRIVIAL amount of transactions. More credit card transactions than that will be done today.

Richwicks,

immoral? steal money from people??? What? You trade BTC on exchanges. there is smart money and dumb money. How do you think people make money in trading NIO or Pot stocks? Some people buy low and sell high. Others buy high and panic sell when it dips 3% or 70%. Thats not stealing, thats called trading.

Have you ever sold a stock and realized a gain? You ponzi sheme/con guy! You money thief!

G36 says

You ponzi sheme/con guy!

I've heard of he-she but never "sheme". Is that one of the 32 genders?
