You can spot them a mile away so avoid those people, but putting you faith in the likes of the IMF who make a precondition of lending $3.5 billion on condition you start a civil war and create income inequality as a business makes me think the obnoxious bitcoiners are the heavenly in comparison.
I grew up and still live in a country that was plundered by the IMF, with corrupt banks and politicians, and all that.  I have experienced runaway inflation, high taxes, stupid prohibitions, rotten public service, unfair justice, and more.  But I would still choose all that to the libertarian "Mad Max" utopia, and I put more trust in my government than in the Shrem Karpelès & Pierce Global Cryptobank Inc.

For practical reasoning being wrong it's about as effective a doubling your 0 Bitcoin investment every day.
At least professor Bitcoin had enough doubt in his competency to actually invest USD and buy some Bitcoin.
I don't stay bitcoin-free because I trust my competency, but because (among other things) it seems to turn those who own it into religious fanatics, obnoxious salesemen, or worse...

This professor could not have been more wrong about this one.
Well, he could have said "50,000 USD by the end of Q2".  Grin

Let this thread fade away gracefully.


I would consider closing it might be a good idea, but at bitcointalk.org most topics get left open.
It stands as evidence showing how wrong the Bears can be.  Smiley

Who could have thought at the beginning of 2008 that the price of oil (yes, even oil) would fall from incredible $140+ to miserable $30 something within less than a year (that is more than 4 times). Could we consider this as an example proving how right the Bears can be? Wink

So I think first half of 2014 is really over now.
More than a month ago actually and it seems that we will be heading up in July.
You must be a programmer.  The first six months are 1 to 6, not 0 to 5.  Cheesy
It doesn't matter how you count them, there are still 6 months in half a year ("six of one and half a dozen of the other"), and the last of them ended more than a week ago. So it was a false prophecy by a false prophet. Smiley
Check the dates on those quotes.  On July 3rd, the first half had not ended "more than a month ago", only 3 days earlier.

Did I pretend it had? I was just telling that it didn't matter how you enumerated those months (0 to 5 or 1 to 6), since there are still 6 months that make half a year. Wink

Let's call it a day finally!

Why hasn't any news place mentioned this yet...

What's there to talk about? Unless he decides to jump in front of a speeding train due to embarrassment.

Coindesk could do a little write up, no need to talk with him.
they did a little while ago, Professor Bitcoin actually sounded quite bullish.
he would have to be stupid to agree to an interview now with the intention of embarrassing him.
http://www.coindesk.com/mark-t-williams-on-the-flaws-and-opportunities-of-bitcoin/


http://www.coindesk.com/mark-t-williams-bitcoin-bulls-time-will-vindicate-prediction/

and then this he changed his prediction to “I am not alone in the view that bitcoin is in a hyper bubble that will eventually pop.”

later Professor Bitcoin admitted to Barry Silbert that he holds Bitcoin, so his public position and private position are not aligned.
