LOL @ bitcoin is not a speculation vehicle.

95%+ of bitcoins are held by speculators. You guys should go buy gold with the rest of your money so that you can lose another 90% of your value over the next three years.

How does it feel getting slowly wiped out guys? Good? I wouldn't know.

Bump.

I'm still feeling quite good, thanks for asking. Yay Bitcoin! Cool

If you want to see me in a less positive mood, wait for another >50% down. But unless Bitcoin really looks in danger of dying, I'm not so much shaken. Bubbles don't have soft landings, doesn't everyone know that? Relax 'n watch the touchdown.

Picking a better topic text would improve the thread btw.

Fun? Informative? Exciting?
How does it feel being so poor you can't even throw away a few grand on crazy ideas without worrying about loosing money, just for the heck of it? Bad? I wouldn't know.

Trying investing in Solidcoin, and you'll have a pretty good idea.

I said "crazy ideas," not "stupid ideas."

Who here put their live savings into bitcoin?

oh gawsh

I don't know whether you'll be proven right or wrong, but it's surely absurd to be making calls one way or another right now. Or a year from now. Or five years from now. In about 10 years, I'll call it a fair time period over which to make the assessment.

The difference between a troll and a non-troll is hard to tell until the troll is proven right.

I just choose the path of less risk and hold things with value - less money is made, but less is lost. I did lose $15 on bitcoin though, granted.

I feel sorry for you: your wealth (if you have any) is your prison.
Bitcoin is not a speculation vehicle.
Bitcoin is about regaining a degree of freedom that has been taken away from the people legally but illegitimately.

i thought Bitcoin was bad b/c its a deflationary currency, rising in value with time, thus encouraging hoarding?

now Bitcoin is bad b/c its an inflationary currency, dropping in value with time, thus encouraging selling?

The market is mature enough to short.
How much of your savings did you use to short bitcoin?
If none, then next time put your money where your mouth is.

Life savings into bitcoin is unwise, but I do have my mind and heart invested fully to make it succeed.
