Topic: Lies Bagholders Tell Themselves. - page 6. (Read 10748 times)

Both requires technology/programming innovation

In a financial slang, a bagholder is a shareholder left holding shares of worthless stocks.
Coins are not stocks, but if we call somebody 'bagholder' we need at least prove that his coins are WORTHLESS.
In my opinion, coins that are collectables like, cannot be worthless. They have their price.
But which coins we may call 'collectables'? Only first old altcoins, pioneers (launched till 2013 and a first half of 2014 maybe, before coins big bang).
Other criteria are a listing on a good exchange and a name.
Collectables are not worthless, and they are not equal to penny stocks.

Lies to tell themselves? Maybe that NEW means COOL.  

- Buy now. The masternode dev is working hard

- Only 2BTC to double the price. Hodl

This.

Many people talk about innovations, but the truth is that we can add it to the list of lies, which bagholders (because they are mostly buying promises and they eventually become bagholders) tell themselves.

sign me up for the coin that stops the wife getting pissed off LMAO

Innovation in crypto is highly over-rated. In the short-run, innovation means nothing, and in the long-run... Well, we haven't hit the log-run yet. Who knows.

If a dev can come up with a coin that will make my coffee in the morning and lower the toilet seat after I use the bathroom so my wife doesn't get pissed off at me, I'll buy as much of that coin as I can afford. That's real innovation. But short of that, innovation doesn't matter.

average joe will only go after innovative coins

even if the innovations extremely complicated average joe will learn to adapt (actually told to me in a debate with a ripple big wig).


(cause you know the fiat everyone uses is so fresh and innovative   )

Hahahaha!  This one made me lol hard.

"That exchange was full of whales holding down the price, so we're better off that XYZ exchange dropped us."
   

Here's some actual quotes for you guys from the Propayments thread which should give you more than enough hilarity https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/pro-the-start-of-a-new-altcoin-era-exchange-with-futures-coming-1010533

You are so right. I guess that's one of the main reasons that they don't sell and get into a better investment. They actually think that they haven't lost money until they sell. Good one.

The one I always tell my wife when she says to me: "so you pretty much lost X thousand dollars" is "give it a year, I promise you I was correct."

My absolute favorite line is "you haven't lost until you've sold"

Nice combo of delusion and projection in so few words. Bravo.

Now go back to paying me with your losing trades you pauper   

It's the bots that keep selling 

HODL 

Miners have to pay for their cost of electricity so they dump

Hopium for bagholders. He is back

I love when my bags are on the "cutting edge" of anon. Those ones are juicy.

"It is good news, we now know that (dev) is alive"

"Its the middle of the night in China so you probably won't hear back for a few hours. Deposits and withdrawals of (x) often sit in processing for hours for some reason. Right now they are probably updating the new wallet and syncing, which takes a long time."

"The (x) devs are not flashy and pumping (x), they are quietly working and making improvements."

"I BELIEVE that we will see steady progress upward."

"Much depends on the whitepaper which is coming around soon. If it holds what it promises than we will see upgoing trend."

"(x) will be the new era of our time the time is now !"

"(x) team is paying people to FUD on (x) thread and against them."

"all the time you mix cryptocurrencys with tradtional companys"

"This kind of innovation will turn heads. "

"He cant just pocket that and say project over."

"there still is some chance in this project..."

"Not necessarily a bad thing that they sold out"

"This coin needs OPTIONS. Additions. If it will do more, it will worth ALOT more considering its history, and when the BTC rise arrives, we are looking at the old price or even higher. But we need something like.... instant transactions DASH style"

"We will all be looking forward to the release on ios!"

"I am very interested with the anonymity of (x) technology."

"It is really cool because it provides a high level of privacy while keeping the same mechanics we are used to with BTC."

"I'd say this is a success so far"

"Please give this Coin a chance. A new game means a new chance!"

"People with that kind of hash power available tend to just mine for a short period and get a lot of coins and then move on. It's a really good tactic overall, but they probably only go for coins that they think may have a good chance of making it somewhere since it still costs them a lot to run their powerful rigs. So (x) can be worth a nice amount soon"

"i think it could be worth about 6-7k sats maybe more depends on the devs work indeed"

"yup - the open source community is MASSIVE now"

"I've actually gone from all Apple / Microsoft to some Microsoft and mostly open source now. Can't see me going back on most things. "

The biggest one of them all is..
"I can get out out before it crashes."

I'd say 99% of you all know these are worthless stupid Ponzi tokens used as nothing but a vehicle to make money.
And you ALL also know the pattern.. P&D etc.
So you all think your smarter than the wolves preying on us all and think you can get out in time with a profit..
Not likely.. if you stay in long enough you will go broke.
I made my money and walked long ago.. when I cashed out I was up a good 10 to 12k with not a cent invested so I am more than happy.
I am not naïve or cocky to think I am smarter than the Bob Surplus's etc.. if they want your money bad enough consider it gone.

But you all got it covered excuse wise.. good job guys & funny stuff hahha
