Ok.... Now that I read that again, I recall seeing it.

It seems like a bit of an over-leveraging, but not necessarily a bad one.  Each of us needs to make those kinds of decisions, and not necessarily kick ourselves if we teeter on one side or another.

I recall that in about late 2014/early 2015, I was teetering on whether I should divert some of my 401k investment into bitcoin.  At the time, I was more than 50% in the red in bitcoin, and I figured that such a diversion of merely a portion of my 401k could more than double my BTC holdings.  In the end, I decided NOT to do it because I had already gotten to a level of investment in bitcoin that was beyond my initial projection of what I was going to do.  So I could not really justify taking a larger stake, which would rise to the level of a kind of excessive gambling, in my thinking.  I continued to dollar cost average and to attempt to invest fairly high amounts of my spare cash flow into bitcoin, and I considered that what I was doing was more than enough "overleveraging" because it also allowed me to feel comfortable with my soon thereafter decision to sell on the way up (my current practice of selling on the way up and buying on the way down with ongoing dollar cost averaging into bitcoin of any extra income that I get).  So, I never really feel bad to shave off a bit of sales of bitcoin, here and there, because I already feel a bit "overleveraged," but NOT overleveraged so much as to have taken out of my 401k.  Anyhow, my point is that there can be a variety of ways to still achieve a kind of overleveraging approach while NOT breaking the bank, so to speak.

From the Wikipedia link, referencing Mythbusters:

Hmmmm, if you say so maybe I am wrong....

Time to do some study about it...

P.S.: It looks like the most dangerous it is when it is shoot at an angle (parabolic trajectory), as expected, not straight up in the air. But yeah, it seems real people have died or been injured due to it.

Good night mate

Good night into far HODLspace

just wrong

Fatalities from falling bullets are all too frequent. The classic scenario is middle eastern wedding celebrations where falling lead kills a member of the party.  Happens too much.

Careful, this guy apparently has been citing himself for his sourcing of this information.

Sorry if this has been already addressed.

I don't get the point of that article. It says that looking for any correlations is going to find some, no matter what. So what? Correlation is not causation. Making sense of the (confirmed) correlations one finds requires insight, that's all.

Indeed, it will be the Zimbabwean dollar of crypto.

Thanks, I may well do

the times you see the posters from meta throwing 20-30-40-50 to each other is not any better ..... (I know I have been getting some big loads as well from generous guys in here.... but I do try to spread them around, it just must be to people I think are in here with best intentions and coiners)

All my hate.

Now I see what happened, and why I got some sweet merit from you.
I won't thank you, though. It's to keep you out of trouble ;-)

That would be my understanding too, which has killed a lot interest that I initially had for it. However, how many other coins are like this? and how many of those have gone from low value to a high value.

Monero? But isn't their supply cut down to only 0.3 every block at some point?

Even with open ended supply it still seems that a lot of money can be made in the medium-term even if long-term it is destined for disaster.

50 every minute forever seems like a awful lot though.

It's a pity a random spontaneous act of kindness and generosity can be so heavily criticised instead of just accepted for what it is.

And also, they speak a weird, totally incomprehensible English.

THX for posting that one



gives me a reason to AGAIN post the kind of crazy F*** I am
and how committed I must be

still love that rollercoaster F***er on my arm and didn't regret it for 1 second

Well, if it's infinite it won't be worth anything. That's Economics 101.
