Ah, so we're at the old tulip game again, eh? Well, it has been proven and said many times before that you simply can't compare Bitcoin to tulips - well you can, but it doesn't make a lot sense since Bitcoin's supply is limited and it has inherent value. This is getting ridiculous...

it's limited so what? everyone have to use it and it has to be another bubble? it can not dropping to $0 now?
sorry, the world doesn't care about bitcoin and the inflation of 3600(or 1800 or 900) btc / per day is way to high,
the price will never stop dropping until it ends

The supply is limited to approx. 21 million coins. You can't create more coins than that. Well you can, but they won't be valid

Tulips, however may be reproduced as often as you like, no one can limit the supply of tulips.

Ha yeah, man - A lot of people really don't get this. But when they do, they suddenly realize what this means. Over half of the coins already in circulation, a hard-cap of 21m coins. Bitcoin is inheriently deflationary, man!

why do you noobs (who always seem to have crypto all figured out already) feel the need to constantly warn us about this thing you're convinced is a pyramid scheme / scam? are they that concerned for our financial well-being that they have nothing better to do on the internet except persistently post their public service announcements that only get as imaginative as comparing bitcoins to tulips and Beanie Babies? do they also frequent the Beanie Baby forums and urge people not to buy the 2015 Tie-Die model beanie baby, because they feel it is a bad investment? why are they so hell-bent on telling us how to spend our money and rubbing our noses in it everytime crypto takes a hit?

Have you ever visited forums about religion?
There are always at least 50%+ atheists. When people think (know) they have figured it out they have the urge to warn the illusioned ones and wake them up from their crazy beliefs.
Why? Because it feels satisfying to speak and read what you believe is the truth.

With the difference that you cannot actually PROVE anything in religious debates.
Atheists or christians/muslims/buddhists etc will still believe what they feel is right to believe/not believe.

With bitcoin on the other hand, the crashing price is just in front of you, there's no mystery Cry

But they still believe. Crashing price is just "manipulation" or "shaking weak hands"

The fact that tulips comes up so much kinda makes the case a lot less powerful considering....that is one case out of hundreds of thousands of things that have had value throughout history.
...
want an example of a bubble?

hmm...tulips?

Wait a few months. Soon Bitcoin will be the poster child for bubbles.

Whatever it is I just prefer to play it safe. Nobody can accurately predict the future so the best way is to wait for firm indicators before deciding what to do next. I definitely won't follow the tulip guy but I also won't continue to sit around on the sideline. I hope when I finally make the move it will be the right decision.

because they are shorting and spreading fud

Most people have an agenda here, especially anyone with apparently extreme opinions. Shorting and spreading fud sums it up nicely.

They're dead now, but sure a lot of people got wiped out. Bitcoin is not tulip bulbs though. why not whack out a south sea chart to mix it up a bit?
