I think the somewhat negative CCTV coverage is having an effect in China.
I've been looking for this but the most upto date story I could find was a very bullish forbes article form 4 days back.
Could you elaborate, please?

Is 800 the new 15 and or 130???

hmmm

You have to ask?

How about this, $15 you sell your wife to buy BTC

If its $130, you buy yourself another wife

Deal?


yeah, i more or less did something like that... going all in at $3 was pretty hard for a while.



anyway she is getting a very nice ring for christmas. diamonds and gold is still are she really cares about, lol. silly girls.

 

I am a girl and I would prefer Bitcoins to Diamonds at this point!  Why?  In a year or two I could get 10 or even 100 for the price of 1!   Grin  I have always loved a great deal.  Bitcoin could be the best "deal" ever!  

We will see though.  I was complaining this morning that so far our investment in Bitcoin has only grown in the virtual world. We have not yet seen any benefits from it in the physical world.  We will start pulling some out in a year or so I think, depending on how fast and high it grows.  

Do not forget to take profits on the way up.

exactly, my wife has more bitcoins than most people on the forum. she held and now she wants some bling. she is young so whatever. its not like she is selling a significant amount.

BTC appreciated so much that somebody that bought aprox. 1 year ago (lets say 2012, or even Jan-Feb 2013) now has such a massive amount of unrealized profits (50x- 60x) that by selling only 10% of their stash they would be looking to at least a 5x profit compared to their initial investment... While continuing to hold to 90% of their stash. Not realizing profits in that scenario is plain dumb IMO, we all need some bling Wink

Stop buying real gold and minerals. That destroys the planet. Get her a virtual ring.

lol what?


also i really think she wants something to show off to all her friends.

Mining companies are destroying the environment in countries like Chile. And we need the environment to survive. So I really think people should try to buy less frivolous stuff like rings made of gold. Virtual mining should be the future and let real resources for stuff that is actually needed.

i still dont know what a "virtual ring" is.

also you must not have a wife. if you did you would know if you make her happy life is much much much much much better.

also free market ,


ch00000 ch000 mfs!

The virtual ring was kind of a joke Tongue But anyways I'm sure girls can be happy without stuff like rings and jewelry they just need a good substitute. Take her around the world or something Wink

maybe i should find some better country, hmm.. have too much invested in the wife, oh well. im sure i can find more.  Cheesy

Trust me that is the most depreciating "ASS"et anyone has.  They need work as they get older, and maintainence up keep is awful.

......or so he's heard.

I love it when everyone who doesn't own one knocks it because of the maintenance and upkeep. If you can afford the car you should be able to afford the upkeep. You're not buying it for its dependability. You're buying for what it says about you. (And I leave it there, you can finish that statement as you see fit)

$1000 invested, 1.25 coins O.O

LOL!!

I remember how I sold $1000 worth of coins to my best friend in January this year... I told him he couldn't afford to lose the opportunity, and he said "ok, WTF, take $1,000 and send me some of that magic internet money"...

Do you know how many coins I sold him?

BTC71

Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Crazy bitcoin, so crazy... And you have to know that at that time it seemed very expensive to him. He told me "come on man, can't you round it up and give me 100 coins? This is crazy, $1,000 hard earned dollars for 70 monopoly-like tokens" Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

I will add that Bitcoin ALWAYS feel expensive when you first buy it. But it's not.

the barrier to entry is so low.  



I think this bears emphasis.  This is one of the reasons Bitcoin can be such a disruptive and democratizing force.

A couple years ago, if you already had a decent gaming PC, the barrier to entry was, literally, a few clicks.

But still, everybody knows that Bitcoin is the real thing, and the rest just clones and scamcoins.
Scamcoins are like gambling, poor people clinging to delusions of riches ripped off by those who understand the game.

Word.  One of my favorite things in life is to find an altcoin supporter and whittle away their arguments until they literally admit "I don't care, I just want USD!"

I dabble a fair bit in altcoins. Why? Well, I don't care, I just want bitcoins!

Making BTC from scamcoins is possible, but extremely difficult. Most of the times you will end up losing BTC if you mess with scamcoins - I know by heart. I was lucky enough to buy LTC at 0.002BTC, I sold for good when it went at aprox. 0.02, and I think I will never ever invest again in LTC. I feel lucky (because it was just sheer luck, a silly gamble that paid off), now I won't test my luck any more.

For the record: I lost BTC with XRP and with some other scamcoin. Not a lot in absolute terms because I took those as a game, but a lot in relative (%) terms.

I usually play with alts when bitcoin is indecisive or on the turn, and trade extremely carefully (mostly with litecoin), for a relatively small but safeish margin. Such careful day trading has added up my bitcoins nicely, whereas I've learnt not to day trade BTC/USD except for during obvious corrections. I find that I can better predict BTC/LTC daily/hourly swings than BTC/USD. Never go to sleep holding any alts.

I've been trying to stay away from trading, but the overall trends are still surprisingly easy to take advantage of in this market, especially having observed it for so long.  One of the primary problems for new adopters (and many of us went through this) is that many of them are brand new to any form or trading (as I was 3 years ago).  

Resisting the psychological effects of seeing the market move against you after you take a position by joining selling in a panic are really, really hard to do.  Lots of people think they can do it, in the abstract, but it's just not that easy once your money is on the line.  Knowing that so many people who join during bull runs are so powerfully subject to these psychological effects makes bitcoin ripe for manipulation, for better or worse.  I think it's a phenomena of the bitcoin market that will be reduced over time as the market as a whole matures, and I think there's already some evidence of that, but I think it will continue to persist for years to come.

None of this is anything totally unique to bitcoin, but I think it is amped up in this market in part because the barrier to entry is so low.

you should get yourself a tractor goat

diamonds are great and all, but hydraulics are a boy's best friend

I already put payment down for a 458. You should get Lambo and we can do a trip together Cheesy


Awsome,

If bitcoin allows me to reach that stage one day it will be great.

Please keep me up to date (via pm even) when you get it, I'd love to see some pictures Smiley
