Topic: Buying ETH now is the most retarded move a person can make - page 3. (Read 3784 times)

Alot of these Ethereum Maximalist are going around and telling people to buy that crap, because they believe that it is the "perfect" time to buy.

Sorry for being off topic but your username, and especially your profile picture, gave me a major case of the giggles

I checked out some of page one and agree with most of you.. and the OP !

@billotronic
That right there was Top-Shelf "FUD" bro  
I think you training for the FUD Olympics coming in 3 years by the looks of it.
A "Legendary" comment

YES those old villians are nothing to what we see now.
It's basically a coordinated attack / spam hype campaign vs the users these days.
"Groups" with an agenda simply try and come here and out post count the FUD.
Run ANY scam imaginable then try and over power it with a sheer volume of positive comments.
..even if each one sounds stupid they bump you away etc..

A game that grows worse in time i think.

BitcoinEXpress said recently.. naw it's always been that was we just have MORE scammers.
I sort of agree but not really LOL
The methods and scale are different !

A bit more on-topic though..
I have watched the price and there looks to me (in my own humble opinion)
To be a group with money hanging around propping up the coin..
When ever it gets dumped on it seems to have been pumped back up to
a hair just a over $12 (like that is where they want a wall setup)
This has been happening ever since "the attack"
And screams colossal manipulation.. in a bad way !
We are also talking about a coin they brag that has a BILLION dollar MarketCap
so.. it's not like some guy with 4 grand in BTC is moving the coin around.
This is BIG TIME manipulation we see going on !

Besides think about this traders..
If a coin got bad news and tanked YOU SHOULD be able to buy cheap coins fairly.
A massive group in hiding manipulating the coin like i just said
is robbing you of the opportunity to buy in low (if you chose to do so)
So really its not very fair even if you want to defend that bullshit.

So yes the "market does lie" contrary to guy saying it earlier

You got that right. I predicted a much earlier end to Eth but it hangs in there. I guess it should have been expected considering the amount of money that was pumped into it. Even after this last drama with DAO(which should read DOA), eth price has dropped and is dropping but not like the stone it should be. Must be some deep pockets involved.

It's not doing that well as of now. Below 0.018 as I write.

Well, gentlemen the market (usually) doesn't lie, and eth is getting railed up the diarrhea corridor by the same African boys that got it to 0.022 in the first place.  Now if you ask me,  it should be flushed all the way down to where the other shit is--all the one satoshi garbage.   I'm truly surprised that it's this tenacious.

What profit after bitcoin halving ? Everyone invested for " halving" since it was 200$. Now its almost 700, theres really no room  for it to increase anymore. From now on, after the halving it can either drop to 2-3-400 or increase to 8-900, i think if you invest now in bitcoin your risk to lose is higher than the risk to gain. And you simply cannot invest enought to make a signifiant profit. Because thats why we are all in crypto, for profit.

Looks like there are same result so i think its better to don;t invest or buy bitcoin so that you may not lose your money.. better to buy bitcoin instead to make more profit after block halving..

Well lets look at what happened: a hacker found a loop hole in a contract and exploited it. Not only that he stole some money, but it could affect the future of the project but letting an ill intented hacker having up to 14% of ethereum total tokens would put the project at risk. What signal would give this to the future projects made on ethereum ? You want to bring blockchain and contracts into mainstream but then you show investors / companies no support at all ? They cannot embrace a new technology with a whole new bag of risks that comes with it if they get no support. Ethereum is still beta / developing and showing potential investors / companies that the project / miners / stakers would back them up by voting  if something like this happens, especially in beta mode.
Hard fork is not a bad thing unless theres no consensus. This is not bitcoin china where 95% of the hashrate is controled by 10 people, with 2 of them controlling 50%, to argue that the consensus consists of 3-4 people's interest. It consists of thousands of people/miners interest, and their interest is for the project to succeed.
Yes, what happened was bad, especially short them, and theres a very small risk it could kill the project. But if it survives, and 99% will, it will become stronger.
Ofc there are alot of fear mongers, some of them bitcoin maximalist who fear ethereum, some shorters who were hoping it would go to 1$, hoping to  make a 10x profit and now are desperate because the price actually holds.

what's your definition of normal? whatever fork happens, it's gonna be extremely hard to argue that it's a good thing in the long term however you wanna look at it. still, that ain't gonna stop the trading.

After the hard fork the price will go up because everything will be back to normal. Even the average fudders know this, so they ll keep trying fudding hoping their fud actually matters and more people will dump to drop the price. They are small fish and they dont know it.

Is it just me or have all the Bitcoin-Xt-zombies migrated to ETH and spouting the same braindead BS in their eth-reddit now?
XT-fan-homebase is pretty silent and the same stupid nonsense arguments pop up on the ETH.
These people are a fail. What are they even doing in crypto?
Steer clear from them. Everything they touch turns to sheit because they're only in it because of money and nothing else.

Let them fail with their gavin in the eth-fiasco and don't welcome them back to bitcoin!

A lot of tinfoil here.. Ethereum will survive. It will lose legitimacy. People understand smart contracts needs to be thoroughly researched for years before they can do anything "fun" with it.


But the larger holders of Ethereum won't let it die. I wouldn't short ETH ever because ETH whales are coordinated bulls. And if you believe some nefarious plan then my bet is that it is to push up the price and create a Dao to transfer the wealth through different schemes. Not necessarily illegally.

Remember:

ETH is a PRE-MINED coin, ultra manipuled by whales

ETH is a PUMP AND DUMP coin, made only to pump and dump and make some whales rich fast like a rain

ETH is a PRE-MINED SCAM COIN

Only retards to buy this pre-mined trash.

THIS

is really saying something.

Come ye youngins and I will tell you a tale of the shit fucks we used to have... Come, sit on my lap and I will tell you a tale of golden times. Oh those were the days. One man scam crews were a walk in the park compared to the steroids scam machine that masquerades as bitcointalk these days. The villains of our time pale in comparison to the skullfuckery going on writ large on the front page of the alt section.

In all serousness, alt 'coins' as a whole should wither up and fucking die.

this is a disgrace to what cryptocoins in general represent. We all should feel ashamed of ourselves for even participating in this tsunami of wealth transfer.

DOA hack is causing a butterfly-effect that's out of control. People will notice later.

Sitting here and lmao at these green candles. What a moronic pumpery. Next leg down will be violent.

The risks outweigh the gains. at a fifty million dollar market cap then i'd certainly go for it. i can't see enough upside beyond the current level no matter what problems they solve.

Even after the news about hard fork going to happen price is still up, i think this is done with purpose of dumping  whatever coin they can at this high prices. I am sure hard fork will just make ETH really a shit and people will lost their trust over eth foundation. DAO messed up ETH, what a luck eth foundation have.  LOL

Heh so true

What softfork?
