“My goal is to get rich,” says Jonathan Mohan, blunt as you like.
I stopped reading after this. If your goal is to get rich doing bitcoins, your doing it for the wrong reasons. Getting rich was a by product, and people like this don't believe in bitcoin like other people on this forum do. They even labeled him as a "Bitcoin promoter", this is insane.


What's wrong with trying to get rich, ya socialist weenie? Not everyone is in the bitcoin cult, sorry  Tongue
Honestly, thinking like that is not going to get you anywhere. Venture capitalists are needed to help build the infrastructure needed for wider adoption. And venture capitalists don't invest because they are "bitcoin beliebers" and they are part of the Gweedo Cult where nobody should try to get rich, everyone should just give everyone else their money and BELIEEEEVVVEEE. Venture capitalists invest because... they are rich, and they are trying to get richer.

Good luck with the socialist bitcoin cult mentality, though. At least it's amusing.  Roll Eyes

There is nothing "wrong" with trying to turn a profit.

Then he shouldn't be labeled a bitcoin promoter. I am wealthy from bitcoins, and I could retire, but I don't cause I am so passionate about it. I think if your doing bitcoins just to get rich, you are not here for the right reasons. That is my opinion. I see that you don't like when people have opinions against your opinion. You need to work on that.
He probably should; he is just not promoting your own limited vision. The thing is, bitcoin is not your little pet project. It is not going to be what you fantasize that it will. It is what others make it. Keep telling people that you're righteous and they're not. It only marginalizes you and (in its small way) perpetuates the perception of bitcoiners as a cult. Bitcoins are useless to me as currency; I have dollars and more versatile payment systems for that. You don't like people like me? Watch what happens if all the speculators leave the market.

It is opinion dude, get over yourself LMAO. Let the speculators leave, I made my money off of them doing panics sells and buys LMAO
I see. So now that you've made your money, people trying to do the same are "doing it for the wrong reasons." ...But if you were here for the right reasons, you wouldn't have been trading in and out of fiat, would you?

...Get over myself? What are you even babbling about? If you don't want people to disagree with you, stop posting your opinions and then proceeding to dig yourself into holes.

Lol. What do you think is the goal of people on SPECULATION forum?

I don't read the speculation forum, couldn't care for it, it is actually ignored in my preferences.

Your here stalking too? Don't worry, it has the power of Amir in there to balance out these leeches of the blood of productivity Tongue

No someone trolled me and sent me the link. I didn't realize it was in the speculation until after that statement, which I agree looks pretty dumb.

Well that's surprising considering you are posing in a topic in the speculation forum.

I know someone sent this link to me but thank you.

"[bitcoin] has fluctuated sharply, but overall it has soared. So buying into [bitcoin] has, at least so far, been a good investment. But does that make the experiment a success? Um, no. What we want from a monetary system isn’t to make people holding money rich; we want it to facilitate transactions and make the economy as a whole rich. And that’s not at all what is happening in [bitcoin]." -Paul Krugman

Bullish.

Not for price, but for infrastructure. The rich folks that read this magazine won't be too interested in dumping millions into such a low-liquidity asset, but they love to get their hands dirty with some startups. More VC funding announcements here we come!

#1 bear complaint is "there isn't sufficient infrastructure to support the kind of adoption we need to keep price going up at the rate of the long-term trendline."

A reasonable complaint.

However, VCs see the potential in bitcoin and will understand the potential return from investing in Bitcoin-related companies.

Everything is going according to plan.  Cool Cool Cool

Trend reversal? I think not. Good to see, though. Not a fan of the believer/evangelist angle... we're not all part of the cult!

Big money will ask their financial advisors about "that Bitcoin thing", to which they will reply  "they recently had a bubble, let it deflate and then we will come in"

Well written article in a magazine regularly read by wealthy individuals. May we see a trend reversal now?
