Yes, you're idiot. Yoiu used them just as I am using them now despite strongly believing they'll be much more expensive but you're idiot as you spent and sold all of them and never saw they could be where they are now.

OK, you might not be an idiot, it needed big belief to hold through all shit but stop playing a victim, you're not. You had your chance, you missed it. No need to hate those that took the chance and had hit the lottery, they're not responsible for your missed opportunity. They've been fucking brave and I salute them, their belief is the reason we are here right now.

Matt, stop calling yourself latecomer. You are not fucking latecomer, you sold or spent your Bitcoins when they were 10$.

You've just been idiot to do it, you're not latecomer, stop playing on that heartbreaking card.

I am a latecomer in the sense of it is only recently that I aimed to make cash through being a fucking parasite in the hope that there will be plenty less skilled parasites than me in the market in order to fund my pay packets.

Acting like a parasite doesn't come as naturally to me as it does to others so I am of course a little late to the speculative game, although it is true, that I was buying Bitcoins when they were less than $5. Silly me for actually using them for their intended purpose. Idiot. Hopefully my mindset has now been correctly aligned with the prevailing ethos of the early 21st century. Roll on the Age of the Jew!

And yes, you're probably the most bitterish guy around here, the anger and bitterness is the highest tone of most of your posts.

You're probably single guy I've never seen here putting a smiley in any of his posts or saying anything remotely relaxed and funny, it's pure aggression all the time.

You're bitter as fuck mate, recognize that and you'll feel much better  Grin

Nice thread, kudos to the brave investment decision. In my humble opinion diversification into physical gold and silver would be well worth considering, that doesn't mean get rid of all the bitcoins.

Bitcoin has huge potential for sure and the way the media are behind it makes me think the powers that be have plans to use it (or similar , Iceland will soon have its own national crypto currency). But I think gold and silver are true wealth available at manipulated low prices.

I am into Bitcoin to make money. I don't believe in it (anymore), I don't like what it has turned into, and I don't trust the motives of the people who are ultimately responsible for putting it out into the public arena.

Thats the direction I'm starting to think in too. I forsee bitcoin eventually being embraced by big money and individual freedom and anonymity dwindling away in the process.

I use Bitcoin as a tool to increase my freedom. I am not immune to the value fluctuations, but I've accepted them long ago. I'm betting on one thing, that there will continue to be people in the world who value Bitcoin as a useful tool until something better comes along (assuming Bitcoin can't simply adopt the improvements should that occur).

I used to think like you, way back when I first heard of and then first starting using Bitcoin. But now, there are just so many reasons and arguments around that make such a rose tainted view of Bitcoin utterly impossible for me. Bitcoin today is an out and out shark pool. For this reason, Bitcoin will become subject to ever increasingly tighter regulation which will piss all over your freedom and actually make someone less free, and less anonymous for using it.

I don't assume to have you sussed, in fact you might just be trolling, in which case fair play you got me! IF you aren't though I'm fascinated by your motives.

I am into Bitcoin to make money. I don't believe in it (anymore), I don't like what it has turned into, and I don't trust the motives of the people who are ultimately responsible for putting it out into the public arena. But I have seen how I have already missed out on 10000%+ profits just cos I was too lazy to make that wild-card £1000 investment back in the day, or if I did, I then proceeded to spend it all on Silk Road. I am not bitter about it, after all, I could be a millionaire if only I had put on last weeks winning lottery numbers. However, just as I believe that Bitcoin could easily repeat mid 2011, April and then November 2013, there is also every danger that it doesn't, or that it repeats Nov 2011 before it is ready for another bout of parabolic action. I rage against posters who compose post after post of Bitcoin dirge that consists of nothing more than what they 'hope' happens rationalised into some pseudo-logical argument, and bearish dullards such as igorr are just as annoying as shit for brain bulltards like JimboToronto. Both types of Bitcoin retard can affect someones mind in such a way that they lose money, which evokes ire in me.

Why I feel the need to rage against anyone as opposed to just quietly sitting doing my own thing is a much broader question. Perhaps I am sensitive to the notion of how the sheer  weight of the invariably wrong majority tends to overwhelm the meak but more often correct stance of the minority. Perhaps it is emotionally appealing to me to view myself as a minority figure of perpetual correctness who must defend himself against the opinions of the moronic masses? Perhaps throwing profanities and insults at people on the internet who demonstrably disagreed with me at some point and got it wrong, makes me feel good and distracts my attention from all the times that I got it wrong? It isn't my fault, its his! and his! and hers! Bastards the lot of them!

Like a fly to shite however, I am checking out Bitcoin charts, Bitcoin news, and Bitcoin opinions (such as on this forum) on a near daily basis. What I hope to get out of it is to gauge a good entry point into the market on a long term basis. I felt it was coming into shape just a short time ago, but now I am not so sure once again. A nice gentle rise above $580 would have been so much more reassuring than the mad price surge caused by that 20K+ panic buying whale. Bitcoin could spring up from here, or take a further nose dive down, but whatever it does, the path directly ahead at this point in time is caked with mist and fog and since I am loss averse above all else, I am out for now.

I think you are holding the charts too close to your face.

Hmm yes, very good.

I shall politely remind you that you not even once have you called the square root of fuck all remotely correctly since I started tuning in here but I congratulate you on your immunity to your Bitcoin's USD worth. I wish I could be so free of Bitcoin stress like you, except that I don't as being a latecomer I would be in the fkn poorhouse if I were to adopt such a fkn numbskulled attitude towards my finances.

Holliday. Zero market acumen, but good for a smart arse comment or two.

I bid you good day.

I have made every attempt to avoid calling the square root of fuck all. So yes, I can agree that I have not made a correct call since you started tuning in here.

Zero market acumen is exactly correct. I don't play this market. I don't play any market. Most day traders lose money. Why would I play a game when there is a good chance I will lose? Not to mention the traders who made all the right calls and lost every single satoshi of profit when their exchange "disappeared". I'll admit that I am often tempted (although not during consolidation periods like we have now).

You aren't a latecomer, don't lie. According to many of your posts you knew about Bitcoin as early as, possibly earlier than, I did.

I am in the poorhouse, and you know nothing of my finances. I don't live life like most people. My main concern is expanding my freedom and avoiding those things which could reduce it. Freedom is more important to me than money, but I'm not ignorant to the fact that in today's world money can open a lot of doors.

I use Bitcoin as a tool to increase my freedom. I am not immune to the value fluctuations, but I've accepted them long ago. I'm betting on one thing, that there will continue to be people in the world who value Bitcoin as a useful tool until something better comes along (assuming Bitcoin can't simply adopt the improvements should that occur).

You just said everything I want to say, but fear it would be wasted Wink prove us wrong MTC show us a little insight! hehe.

I think Holliday might have touched something. You have mentioned being in early on several occasions. Maybe this is just bitter regret? - I'm not saying it is but can you be absolutely sure it isn't?

I'm sure you probably see all my posts as taking shots at you, I guess there is an element of truth in that, but only insomuch as I might tease anyone (and expect to be teased in return) as a means of getting them to reflect. (As indeed I would need to reflect if I am pulled up on things). Everyone is here for the same shared common interest, the points of view might differ, but we are all kind of in it together. So for that reason I think we should all learn together. I'm not trying to say I have the answers and you should listen to me or whatever, what I guess I'm doing is asking you questions about yourself so I can understand *myself* better by understanding those around me.

I don't assume to have you sussed, in fact you might just be trolling, in which case fair play you got me! IF you aren't though I'm fascinated by your motives.

Well said.  Bitcoin increases users' freedom and the cost is responsibility.  But freedom isn't possible any other way.

How much of the world's population is using bitcoin now?  Maybe 0.01% (1 million users)?  How much of the world's population would value a means of exchanging money with anyone else in the world, without the assistance of a third party or the permission of an authority?  I would expect more than 0.01%.

I used to brag about not having anyone on ignore but this insufferable nitwit stopped being a source of humor long ago.

Please could someone quote this post so JimboToronto gets to read some of the cracking calls that he has made on this forum. This is actually one I prepared earlier and I am sure that the fkn halfwit has embarrassed himself numerous times since then, just as there was an embarrassment of riches for me to choose from the first time around.....these quotes all came from just one page of his post history...............yet I am the nitwit...(or something)....jeezus christ!

This is The Great Crash!

I WAS RIGHT!!!

Yep, crashed right back up to 1230+  LOL

Oh noes.

We almost lost 3 days worth of gains.

The sky is falling.

Enjoy your picnic little teddy bears.

LOL

Last chance to buy under $1000.

Don't miss out.

edit- too late

How long before the next feeble attempt to push the Gox price under $700?

Lots of money has been wasted by somebody trying to do that without success via market sells when they could have just placed asks and waited for them to be filled.

Why's everybody so surprised?

We've had lots more market dumps of a similar size in the last few days.

It was just a matter of time.

This whole crash was bogus.

Perhaps I should have said bear trap.

Don't be ridiculous.

Selling now would be foolish.

LOLOLOL

Missed your chance to buy cheap? Too bad kid . Some day you'll learn.

LOLOLOL

Of course the flip side to that is that the move down to 576 was a bear trap which has finally been sprung.

956 wall eaten. Nomnom.

Face it Jimbo. U are one of the biggest idiots not just on this forum, but walking the face of the planet in general.

Not exactly.

Some major cities in Canada have a ridiculous housing market.  (Vancouver, Toronto)  You can buy a nice house in the burbs for a decent price in and around Vancouver though. Those 2 markets alone skew the stats a great deal. We've been hearing about a housing bubble around here for years, it hasn't happened, likely never will.

But there is a fun game people can play regarding the housing market in Vancouver:

Good luck OP, I'm behind you all the way! I remember reading your story when it was out a while back.

Just a couple of tips after reading through a couple of pages of replies here:
  • Forget the haters, they're just upset they don't have more money to invest or didn't get in sooner... most people were telling me to invest in gold and silver a year ago, but I bought bitcoin at $40 instead, so I've learned not to listen to anyone unless they clearly show that they know what they are talking about.
  • Don't listen to day traders and people in it for a month or so at a stretch, they're the ones getting burned on a daily basis because they don't have the balls to hodl or are just trying to make a quick buck off some poor loser because they thought they'd make millions overnight.... these are the guys saying "what if you woke up and it's worth nothing, how would that feel"... well just think about the opposite.
  • Don't take advice from anyone unless you know their btc position because there are a lot of people with 0.001btc around here who think they know it all.
  • It's never too late to get into bitcoin, if you're willing to hodl for at least a year. Everyone forgets how long the early adopters waited for the price to increase and I'm sure you've heard the story about the bitcoin pizza.

I predict that you will still be bitching about manipulation at 20k. Will be bumping this when it happens.

I have no Bitcoin positions.

I couldn't give a rats arse if some whale wants to plunge 3 million USD in and out of market right now. Infact, I feel a great relief that I am not playing at the moment as I witness these erratic and unforsesable spikes up n down.

What is forseeable is the creeping price slide back to test the previous low. Enjoy watching your net worth evaporate further, suckers.

You know every day I wake up I have no less bitcoin than when I went to sleep.

I'm not sure that constitutes 'evaporation'.

Please don't feed the troll.

I used to brag about not having anyone on ignore but this insufferable nitwit stopped being a source of humor long ago. I finally broke down and have just this one airhead on ignore.

Others of his ilk, like Fonzie, Revans and Bitcoinlitcoinbtcltc can be a laugh but they don't seem to take themselves as seriously as this dingbat does.

By quoting him you're subjecting anyone who has ignored him to his asinine comments.

bitcoin will have a great network effect which will support the exponential rise and average trend through these past 5 years

so i would say that, 24 to 1200 is the same as 1k to 50k, is not too far off

This Bitcoin Nutter determination to force think Bitcoins into representing 'money' or something of value will continue to 'sort of work', until one day it just doesn't.

You are a dreamer sgbett and if you insist on placing ideology before reality, the world will kick your arse.
