Bitcoins worth more than gold
Nearly stuck $20k in Envion during their ICO. Transaction failed (ring bank) and I forgot (had beer to drink).
Now it’s all gone to shit but not because it was a scam but because the one thing cryptocurrencies can’t control: people.
Utter clusterfuck.

Put some money in Bitcoin and wait for everyone to come running when the banks, financial institutions and right-wing governments pull another one of their scams. After all, they just can't help themselves. It's a 100% certainty.
Lets say you do put money in BTC and this “scam” at the banks does happen. Then what?Oldnews wrote:Put some money in Bitcoin and wait for everyone to come running when the banks, financial institutions and right-wing governments pull another one of their scams.

You can’t purchase everyday stuff with BTC. How you going to pay your mortgage or rent or buy some fuel for your car? How you going to transfer your crypto to fiat, without a scamming bank account?
Good luck, but I imagine you don’t have any fiat let alone crypto to worry about it!

https://money.cnn.com/2018/06/19/techno ... index.htmlOne of the world's biggest bitcoin exchanges on Wednesday said that more than $30 million worth of cryptocurrencies have been stolen from it.
Bithumb, an exchange based in South Korea, said in a notice on its website that all customer deposits and withdrawals have been suspended while it reviews the situation.
The notice didn't say how the theft of 35 billion won ($32 million) worth of cryptocurrencies occurred or which ones were taken.
The exchange said it will compensate the loss from its own funds and that all customers' assets have been "securely saved" in the company's "cold wallet."
Bitcoin seems relatively stable lately at $6300 or so. About where it was one year ago in the midst of it's meteoric rise.

Not trying to convince anyone as I hold no bitcoins and have no plans to ever do so. But the whole bitcoin experiment is fascinating and i do monitor the value on occasion to see if the wild predictions from pro and anti crypto currency pundits ever materialize. It has been so insanely volatile for such a long time that a prolonged period of stability in value is also mildly interesting.YaTingPom wrote:Who you trying to convince, us or yourself?McPhisto wrote:Bitcoin seems relatively stable lately at $6300 or so.

Bitcoins look way to volatile and illiquid for my liking. At least with the stock market i can sleep knowing i probably aint gonna lose much more than a couple of percent overnight.

That semi-stability in Bitcoin value didn't last long. Down to under $4400 at the moment.
4400? Wow. I never thought I'd ever think that but isn't this a good time to buy a few, if you've never hold it or been remotely interested before?McPhisto wrote:That semi-stability in Bitcoin value didn't last long. Down to under $4400 at the moment.
'Semi-stability' is actually volatility and this trending to a lower value is probably on the more realistic side of things. What are other cryptos doing?logos wrote:4400? Wow.

Remembering that when it was first launched, the value of a bitcoin was 2 slices of pizza, so even if it eventually settles at $1000 the earlier investors are still ahead while the latecomers who jumped on the muggins train get dildoed. Fait accompli.

It’s a shame all this bullshit hype happened because it took away the importance of what crypto’s, or more correctly the blockchain, are and what they are trying to achieve - and I don’t mean to undermine governments and do away with fiat.
I own a few Bitcoins. But they are real actual physical coins my mate sent “for a laugh”. He’s now butt hurt like many others.

Are they illiquid? Do holders still have a hard time selling or spending bitcoins?spitthedog wrote:Bitcoins look way to volatile and illiquid for my liking.
