Doomed to see the future and unable to prevent it

Or maybe they know how to properly do a survey.

There's no way in hell almost 10% of europeans or americans already hold any Bitcoin. No.Fucking.Way.

Small sample size, probably taken at college campuses, and you could be right. Smiley


Historically, they used urine to tan animal skins, so families used to all pee in a pot. Once a day it was taken and sold to the tannery.

If you had to do this to survive, you were ‘piss poor.’

But worse than that were the really poor folks who couldn’t even afford to buy a pot. They ‘didn’t have a pot to piss in’ and were considered the lowest of the low.”

Still learning something new every day! W00ps guess this was wrong.

Still didn't know the origins though. Smiley

Thanks, yes, nice read and stats. Do we really expect 99m people are waiting to climb on board?

Not sure if it was the bullish sentiment of the article but I've been getting that same feeling as when we left the 4k's about a year ago.  So I'll just say it again.... $6xxx feels cheap as fuck!  I'm considering the decent probability that the bottom is now.

I went to one in Germany where it's a circle with several urinals pointing inward. I think the center fills with pee and then...profit??

 Cheesy snopes claims the above story to explain these two phrases is bogus. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/one-for-the-roads-scholar/

Roger is an android? Makes sense, he probably mined bitcoins in his nipples.

Hey, guys... what do you think about Sweden Launching Fully-Regulated Bitcoin ETN for US Investors on Wednesday? Will we see any bitcoin pump or will it not affect the price at all?

here is the link : https://cryptoslate.com/sweden-launches-fully-regulated-bitcoin-etn-for-us-investors/

Sounds like nothing new. It appears to be the same ETN that KNC helped launch in 2015, just quoted in USD. I think it will have no effect.

Whales waiting for ETF in September anyway Smiley they'll try to pump as usual, hoping for the average Joe to buy because every news channel will talk about the rise of BTC, a scenario we've seen countless of times.
We will see pumps 2 or 3 times in September, and if the ETF is accepted it should be epic  Smiley


I can see Andreas's explanation that an ETF is bad for Bitcoin.

The premise being that the ETF holding company would be in possession of a huge amount of bitcoins, which would make them a big decision maker when it comes time for things like forks and such. Exchanges already hold a large amount of sway because of this. An ETF would just add to this.

And of course, his final point was "not your keys, not your bitcoins". Never forget.

    66% of Europeans, 57% of Americans and 70% of Australians have heard of cryptocurrency.
    25% of Europeans, 21% of Americans and 15% of Australians expect to own cryptocurrency in the future;
    9% of Europeans, 8% of Americans and 7% of Australians currently own some cryptocurrency.

Global Blockchain Business Council Survey (sample size: 5,761, source)

    6 out of 10 Americans have heard of Bitcoin.
    Note: This is more than 2x that of a similar survey conducted in 2013

Bank of Canada Survey (sample size: 1,997, source)

    Roughly 2/3 of Canadians have heard of Bitcoin
    Less than 3% of Canadians own any Bitcoin

Those damn Canucks always behind the curve! Tongue

My take — entry point timing is a dangerous game to play…

True but those without unlimited resources have to play this game. Smiley
