Hi.. good-luck with your coins. It's rough to lose coins the way you did.
No its asinine for the op to ask that if he's been around since 2012, I've lost 30 coins to scams n hackers n ya don't see me prancing around asking for sympathy! He should know more about BTC then me
What's asinine? I lost the coins? I mean they are probably still on that platter. But I have bigger issues to worrry about other than the possibility of my dead harddrive having a few a bit coin. I have always said they were dead me once the drive died. I didnt pay anything for them, so no loss to me.
If you're referring to my naivety of the current price, excuse me. I have been out of the loop quite a while. But from what I have found it seems the price is currently soaring in anticipation of BIP148/Segwit. Segwit does not seem to be happening unfortunately. Could really save the coin. I personally hope for a split if they were going to be running BIP148. So it's basically a rally and no one knows why, just is.
I too had 3/4 of my holding taken by the likes of MTGOX, Cryptsy. Luckily I transferred a few of my coins back then into things like doge and reddcoin.
The learning curve on this technology if you didnt start at the beginning like a lot of the people with big holdings, basically running the game, then you're kind of stuck behind learning and trying to figure out wtf all this is.
The larger market will pick up Ethereum not Bitcoin if they dont go Segwit.
