For those who say crypto is a scam, I think you're wrong. Why wouldn't digital money, not controlled by central banks, be the future over paper? I trust Bitcoin more than US dollars, and both of their values is derived by the belief of the public that it's worth something. You can't make more Bitcoin, but central banks can print unlimited fiat. Crypto is new and different, and that scares a lot of people because it's unknown, which means now is as good a time as any to get in before it becomes mainstream.

man, you hit the nail! Spot on.

especially: now is a great time to get in, because its still new and you have ignorant people who think a decentralized cryptocurrency can be a scam. LOL. Those posts from these people are golden. Generations will make fun of them.

Just when you think it doesnt get much funnier, sissy surprises you again. Lives in IL and doesnt own an umbrella! You just cant make this stuff up!
How is sissy getting to the bus without being completely soaked?

bawahahahaha

And weapons and ammo and armies. Don't you find it funny that governments let crypto just go? If you have gains, they just tax it. If you lose, they don't care either. It's no threat to a government that can wipe you out in the blink of an eye. We've seen in happen with a fucking virus that can kill people over an election. Crypto is an easier target.

There will be no digital currency/money that overcomes the worlds super powers, unless they create it. This is fact. They will be worthless at some point. There's no mass adoption of any of the crypto out there. It's a trading tool to fleece people. I frankly don't understand why it's even a conversation at this point. It's obvious.

You're also using all the keywords the crypto bugs want you to use. You don't have to like what I'm saying but it is fact. You guys are free marketing to the people that are going to take your money. Plain and simple. Not one crypto bug has ever been able to deny that. Someone has to buy the nothing that is crypto and sell it to the next guy. There's no assets. No real estate. No dividends. Nothing. That scheme ends at some point and I think deep down you guys know it.

@WookieMan "Weapons and ammo"
We are discussing investments (something you dont seem to have.....not counting your 100 shares of LUV). And not everyone lives in a dangerous neighborhood and needs to buy more ammo and weapons to protect the fam. And some are just sissy's. Oh wait.

jokes aside. We dont want you do invest in BTC. Its much, much funnier this way.

G36 says

You still don't understand what an investment actually is. See I invest in my business, my time mainly at this point, not money. You gamble. Between our investment in business and jobs, we make over $30k/mo. During a pandemic of all times. We're going to have our best year ever.

I don't need to invest, I can just print the money. You don't and won't ever get that from crypto. Your screenshot shows that you invested what I make in a month. Even with gains I've still doubled yours in crypto. It's a joke. You are a joke. You are the joke and you don't know it. Kind of funny. I'd rather you call me a sissy all day knowing I'm better. Because I am. lol.

overly scared people are usually not successful in life...another sign....I dont think we cant believe anything sissy says/claims.

Keep projecting. Us intelligent ones are laughing pretty hard right now. Keep it up though. This might turn into a comedy site with your gems.

and people who live in IL and dont own an umbrella are strange too....I would send sissy an umbrella but she's afraid of doxing. If sissy had a crypto wallet, i could send her some satoshis but she doesnt have that either....

no sun but rain, but no umbrella
no bitcoin but 100 shares of LUV

yikes.

I guess the brown bag must do the job

porkchopexpress says

Bitcoin is valued in fiat and is worth what the next greatest fool will pay for it.

Maybe you can answer what others have ignored:

How can crypto be a store of value if all incoming money is consumed by the " miners"?

If no answer you have to admit that bitcoin is dependent on the next greatest fool to have any value.

@Patrick / @Onvacation

OV, I think Patrick just shared he got BTC at a few bucks in 2016. Its now at 378 dollars! What a great store of value! Bitcoin is the best performing asset.
He didnt have to pump it....it just increased in value due to high demand.

G36 says

It's snowing... You're idiotically obtuse at this point. Don't expect you to understand what that means. Let me know when an umbrella is needed when it snows. Another tell tale sign that you're spam. Big time.

yep, snow, rain, storms.....and COLD.

if the budget doesnt entail an umbrella at this point. let us know. Happy to start a go-fund-me for sissy.

OH YEAH! WELL I HAVE A BIG DICK AND CAN TYPE IN ALL CAPS!

I understand that you like traditional investments and you've done well there. Stick with what you know and can feel. I totally get it. However, if you think that technology and digital isn't the way of the future, I believe you're sorely mistaken. Does that mean you'll be unhappy if you don't invest in crypto? Of course not. But don't act like it has a pointless future when you know nothing about it.

And to your point about crypto not earning interest, that's false. You can stake assets now and lend out crypto at rates MUCH higher than what's achieved with typical money.

G36 says

Likewise. I don't even have to comment anymore with you. You make fun of yourself. lol. Projecting from China or shit hole Russia. God forbid you can't handle a little cold..... brrrrrrrrrr. Momma's gonna make you some hot chocolate. Maybe rub some Vics vapor rub on your chest and cock. OOOOOOooooooo. Incest.

You don't have the game. It's okay. You're in a death spiral at this point. Keep it up though. The nightly shows suck now, so need to get my comedic relief here. Thank you. You're welcome.

Back to the topic.

Bitcoin has caused many innovations in computing and mathematics. Blockchain is a valuable new tool and the monetary incentive of all the different crypto currencies has created a lot of new technology; data centers cooled in frigid climes powered by geothermal energy for instance.

But it's not digital gold. Crypto as it is it is a rollercoaster of value that you can gamble on or a slow ride to the moon for the HODL'ers. Betting for asymptotes and thinking you will get off before the crash is a fool's game.

I do hear that bitcoin is useful for transferring money to criminals for ransom and stuff.

"But don't act like it has a pointless future when you know nothing about it."
Exactly.

not only does he not know anything about it, he is obsessed with anything crypto. the word/picture Bitcoin alone triggers the shiat out of him..

he gets triggered by Bitcoin and Sunshine...two things he wont ever have access to.



This is a picture of a happy Bitcoin at a beautiful SoCal beach. Currently valued at over 35k :)
a stock of LUV is valued at 48 dollars. LOL

I hope I didn't come off as a dick...I'm just being blunt with how I feel. Crypto isn't for everyone and that's ok...I just happen to think it's only going to explode over time merely because of how it's designed.

its actually a combination of being scared shitless and triggered. BSDS has strong symptoms.

You've posted 3 unanswered comments that are the exact same as every single one of your spam comments. Do you understand what triggered is?

@porkchopexpress

Are you a trader or a HODL'er?

Would you agree that crypto is extremely speculative?

porkchopexpress says

it's only going to explode over time merely because of how it's designed.

Agreed.

It was designed with phrases like, "bitcoin mine" instead of server farm, "miner" instead of computer technician, "coin" instead of bits, and "wallet" rather than flash drive; phrases designed to make "investors" think they were buying "digital gold".

You never hear people talk about buying things with the "currency of the future". Maybe someday.

It is what it is, bits on a flash drive that you hope to sell for more than you bought it for.

Stop with the keywords. Legit. You're right, but it will only draw more spam scum here that searches for it. PorkChop and Cash are real users. Others aren't. We don't need more of the bad kind that cannot even answer a simple question, ever.

Some of these spammers are like termites. Especially in the financial realm. They'll destroy this site by trying to attract like kind scum/spammers. If 5-10 more users of a certain type come here for crypto, it's game over for this site. They're cancer. I've seen it happen and the regulars just bail. I like everyone here, even those I disagree with on this topic. Let's not trash the place.

@porkchopexpress

Are you a trader or a HODL'er?

Would you agree that crypto is extremely speculative?

I am NOT a trader. Trading is highly speculative in any asset class IMO. I invest in cryptos I believe in such as DOT, ETH, ADA, and XLM because they serve a functional purpose that I see as extremely valuable in the long run. It's like investing in the PC back in 1975 as a technology and thinking it'll go mainstream, without investing in the company who created the PC. Do I know for sure 100% that crypto is the future, no...but I believe it is. Everything is a risk else I'd just stuff cash down my wife's panties.

Having said that, there are a lot of traders and fly-by-nighters who ruin the good name of crypto and what it tries to accomplish. This is why there are a lot of shitty coins out there that just become a pump and dump scheme. The key is "investing" in crypto that truly makes sense and serves a highly valuable purpose. Otherwise, my cash just sits in a savings account earning 0.5% and I don't want to be a landlord.

My time horizon for my crypto investments is literally 10-20 years, or longer. Minimal investments now could be worth multi-millions upon retirement. Or, I hand those coins to my kids. As I've said before, crypto can now earn interest and dividends too.

What is the problem crypto solves?

Bitcoin is much better than gold. "Digital gold or gold 2.0" lets people understand that Bitcoin is a store of value. But really, gold is like a landline compared to the iphone 12 pro (Bitcoin).

We should re-name gold to wannabe Bitcoin and leave Bitcoin's name alone. Bitcoin is even shinier. But the best part is the performance. Gold performs like a landline. Bitcoin is the best performing asset. Nothing comes even close.
OV and Sissy are upset because they never managed to get on the train.

lol

I kind of expected you to post your chart.

Didn't you have another one?

@porkchopexpress

Both WookieMan and onvacation are scared shitless of Bitcoin. Different reasons though.

-One is a silver bug who put his money into old toys and old physical coins (lol). Apparently the seller told him his matchbox car will be worth something someday. The seller probably speculated that "every day a dummy wakes up and hopefully one of them buys my junk". bawahaha.
-And Wookie has BSDS. I think that is pretty clear by now.

I heard that such people exist (who buy old stuff and think it will be worth a lot more in the future) but I never really believed it until OV. We got a live one here!

knowing what we know there is just no way OV will ever let himself do an unbias Bitcoin research. He even tells himself that the last Bitcoin will be mined in 2040. Pretty much everyone who looked into BTC knows the year is 2140. For the longest time he believed 2040 but now he even tells himself its probably 2030. He is too deep down the rabbit hole and wont be able to participate in this crypto/bitcoin revolution. He will always remain on the sidelines pushing his little toy back and forth saying: one day you will make me rich, little car.

How about a platform to conduct financial transactions without a middleman? Lending, borrowing...any sort of contract executed at lightning speed and with little to no brokerage fees.

Oh and please include what you think these legos will be worth one day.

Possible, but I don't think there will be a green new deal. Maybe some variation

Maybe something like this?
