Why would we ever see $500 again Huh

If that's what you think have you sold all your stash?

I'm a degenerate gambler and it was a legitimate question

I try to keep an open mind about the price. Perhaps falllling was right and the price will keep going down to nothing. Or the price might rise to $5000 because of all the other degenerate gamblers gambling money on it.


That's not how markets work... We are in a continued bearish slope & it's not stopping
And it's the same sock puppets that say the same nonsense year after year after year. The lamentations of the weak never get old. Your soulful cries whet the appetites of the Bitcoin Jungle predators. Meow.

You already 25 up your 350 bought.


Could be worse
I don't think this is particularly good (assuming the OP purchased even amounts of bitcoin at the various prices he described in his OP). I think it is good that he can dollar cost average his costs down and purchase more bitcoin at low prices, however I also think that bitcoin needs to increase in value substantially soon so people who bought early this year and late last year can be in the "black"

Or you could accept being down 20% and just use bitcoins when needed and keep it as a decentralized store of value without third party risk.

It's also not particularly that bad. If he's suicidal right now I wonder what he'd do when the prices drop to €200. I think he's just trolling though, his name hints to that

Well actually if Zeurpiet bought ONE bitcoin at each of the prices he/she listed in the original post, then they've invested a total of $4590 so far, for a total holding of 9 BTC (assuming they've never sold or lost any of it), and at a dollar-cost average price per-bitcoin of about $510 each.

So, no, they're not "UP" yet... still got a way's to go.

35 up now. You should keep faith, maybe forget about the price and even Bitcoin for a few months then come back.

Maybe that makes me "delusional" as some above have said, or maybe a year or two from now if BTC is going for $10,000+ some people will look back at this thread and say, "Wow that guy was really a visionary"... LOL.  ...

Did satoshi actually say this? Where is his original post if you don't mind linking.

I prefer to get my investment data opinions from the seediest corners of the intertubes, from Anon going by "KeyJockey"


Ha, well lucky for you that I'm here then, eh?   I aim's ta please: happy to oblige Wink 

Srsly, it's all just 'data' -- even "opinion" is "information" and ya gotta collect as much input as possible, then process it as objectively and carefully as you can, to have any chance of a really solid OUTPUT in any attempt to figure this stuff out.

This shit's just difficult, no matter how you slice it, and there's always still gonna be an element of random chance luck too.  Anything can FAIL in the end, and the weirdest most bizarre things can succeed too.  Nobody knows.

But compared to the stupid banks offering some pathetic .01% savings interest, and the built-in inflation degrading the dollar, I'm personally quite happy to park the fruits of my labor in bitcoin, even if it HAS been going down all year.

Maybe that makes me "delusional" as some above have said, or maybe a year or two from now if BTC is going for $10,000+ some people will look back at this thread and say, "Wow that guy was really a visionary"... LOL.  We'll see, one way or the other, but either way I'm happy with my decision no matter which way it ends up.  Nothing ventured, nothing gained Wink

I just do not know why some people can still make big money when prices fall.
Short selling, of course. But what we really need is better options markets so that we can still make big money when prices stay the same. I hate stability.

Binary options ?
No, vanilla options.
