This thread has come true for many many people (who have cashed out lol)

Remember - it aint real until its actually in your hands ....

And getting it there isn't super easy.

And Uncle Sam is going to rape you for 20-30% of it ...

Mo money Mo problems ...

Only 20-30%?

God, you US citizens are lucky bastards. I won't tell you the amount of raping that gets an European declaring capital gains of +6 figures - you would cry.

He was lowballing it, anyone who makes a million USD or more usually loses 50% if they try to take it in a lump sum.

Nope, that's income taxes.  Increases in the value of an asset (such as bitcoins owned) is capital gains taxes, which is 20% MAX and normally in the 10 to 12% range in the US.

Dumb question... aren't there state capital gains taxes that get added on to the 20%?

Depends upon the state, actually.  Generally yes, though.

Are you currently putting all your money into bitcoin?  If you say this, you show you believe it by your actions.  I am putting all my money into bitcoin - I see a possibility of $50-$100+ per coin this year.  Just think, once the "bankers" and hedge funds find out about this, we are going to the moon.  Once my bitcoins are $1,000+ I will be able to pay off my growing college loans and maybe get an apartment, and my first car Smiley

so, are you? Smiley

He's probably living somewhere on his private island, with the 13 beautiful wives he bought.  Doesn't have much time to check the internet or respond to thread Sad

Actually, he can't.  He was finally banned with prejudice.

Bitcoin are real, as long as they are stored in addresses you control exclusively.

Dollars are just numbers in a bank's database that someone else could destroy with a couple keystrokes.

People who are buying bitcoins with the goal of selling them for dollars later are doing it wrong.

This.

In time, more will come to this conclusion.

Feeling wealthier for sure, but certainly not wealthy enough to retire yet.  Maybe next year at this rate though.

Congrats to the earlier adopters on here!  Some of us are just a little slower than others and in BTC that is not a good thing. Wink

Exactly. And for those who know bitcoin tech, Ralph Merkle is an Alcor.org director and member. As in Merkle trees.

Exactly. They don't rip the cells to shreds. They vitrify them. It's like plasticizing. You guys should read up on the newer technology for cryonics. You sound like stock market guys trying to comment on bitcoin :-)
