No, it was a moronic statement. If it was really a joke, it was just stupid. Jokes are supposed to be funny. Saying stupid things doesn't make it funny. I understand that you didn't actually BELIEVE that he would give you that much money for it, but the logic behind the point you were trying to make with your stupid joke is what is weak (I mean the joke was weak too, but that's not what I was addressing in my post).
I'm sorry where I come from people recognize sarcasm as humor and not see it as "a moronic statement". The OP Said that Bitcoin is worth $454. I was asking him to put his money where his mouth is and pay the price they are worth. I know this is probably too complex for you to grasp but, if Bitcoin was worth $454 as a usable currency it would be very difficult to have huge fluctuations down the $55 because PEOPLE WOULD BE BUYING THEM TO USE TO BUY STUFF.
When Bitcoin is worth those ridiculous amounts as ridiculous people claim it is, then it will have a stable price. $266-$105 in a day proves it is all speculation and not worth $454. I'm sure this is far too hard for your mind to understand and you will retort with more statements about morons and idiots. Name calling is what clueless people do when they aren't capable of forming valuable arguments. My six year old nephew is a good example. Let's see if the USD without any federal intervention loses over 200% value in a day. You know I bet it wont because it is actually a currency and not just a virtual commodity.
I love bitcoin and want it to succeed and am making money hand over fists because I recognise these facts. Currency needs stability and if you don't get that you should try going to college.
That's funny, because where I come from, sarcasm only works when there's a hint of seriousness to the point being made with it. Simply saying things that you don't actually mean does not equal sarcasm. So if you were ACTUALLY trying to make a point with your sarcasm, your point was based on flawed logic. If you weren't actually trying to make a point, you are just running your mouth. Which is it?
Op said "Bitcoin is seriously undervalued; is worth $454 today" The truth in the sarcasm is that he seems to belive that. I am quoting him those are his words and his truth.

You realize you're in the 'Speculation' section of the forum, right? Value doesn't necessarily drive price. Market perceptions also do. So just because it's 'Worth' a certain amount doesn't mean that everybody realizes that, and is willing to pay for it, if they don't have to.
Yes I do and I was speculating that it isn't worth $454. You failed to grasp the sarcasm because you probably think they are worth $800 each.

I've heard lots of stories of people getting back change at a cash register, and getting a coin that turned out to be "worth" thousands of dollars, but it was just given to him at face value. Does that mean he should have taken the penny back to the register and said "I'm sorry, I can't accept this coin as change, because it's WORTH $50,000.00" 
Your analogy is backwards. He isn't saying he has a Bitcoin worth "face value". He thinks his bitcoin is worth 4x the price (or perceived value if that helps you). When you can show me the magical Bitcoin worth $50k then maybe your analogy might make some sense.
The analogy makes PERFECT sense. If somebody bought a coin at face value, and then came onto a coin trading forum and said "Hey guys, there's a place giving away $50,000 quarters at face value! They don't seem to know or care what they have!" and then some other idiot said "Well, I just went and got some from them too. Why don't you pay me $40,000 for them?" that's pretty much analogous to the crap you just pulled over here.
If it was just a crappy joke, why do you continue to defend it so much?
