i think it's time to remove your signature:
"Academic interest in bitcoin only. Not owner, not trader, very skeptical of its longterm success."
would be better if you put :
"I keep trolling and try to get some BTC
"
of course i'm not serious i never want to debate with other peoples for what they believe etc everyone is free to believe whatever he wants....
but i just visited your posts and buddy you give me this impression....
I am dead serious with my signature. When I first heard of bitcoin through twitter (not much before Nov/2013), it was claimed to be a fabulous investiment. My reaction then was "sounds too good to be true". The more that I learned about it, the more skeptical I became. I have no intention of investing in it or in any other crypto, and I advise against it.
If people want to gamble their money on it (by day-trading or longer term holding), it is their right -- as long as they don't try to misrepresent it to folks who cannot understand the technical limitations, the economics, and the risks.
