People are so panicky. Crazy. If someone even farts people just hit the sell button in total panic.

A few spurts of premature ejaculation on the campaign donation news maybe?

It's awesome that you have never been in debt, really it is. Most of us aren't in that position, however.
To me the decision was simple: small chance of very high wealth through holding bitcoins vs guarantee of being out of debt.
By no means did I sell all of them, but I'm happy with how I played the game. You can't go broke taking profits.

You're all right to hold on to some for the future, and I kept a couple just in case, but it does feel really good to have made money and cashed out. For many of the dream chasers here cashing out is a bedtime fantasy. I don't want to dream about it anymore. At what point do you cash out? At retirement or when you have a big purchase and need the money? Never? I hope the price goes to a million a coin and we are all rich off a few coins but I most likely won't live long enough to see that happen.
I haven't spent a coin since Jeremy was selling Amazon cards to Americans. So I've been saving for a long time. Time to spend!

I understand you, I guess it also depends on your circumstances. But I have to admit it strikes me just because I wouldn't do what you did (and in fact I'm not doing that, but cashing out very slowly and progressively). I mean, 20% of what you cashed out is already $100k, which is a reasonable amount. Let's say that $100k buys you 1 year of comfortable life while you still ride this choo choo train with 80% of your holdings. Its so clear for me that's the only way to go with BTC, to hold with as many coins as possible to see if it realizes its potential and the long-term trend continues, that it strikes me to hear stories like yours. But again: I guess its a matter of circumstances too. Congrats and enjoy
You're probably not as old as I am either. lol
It has surfaced in several studies that the #1 (by a big margin) regret of people in their deathbed is they should've have stopped worrying about money/work sooner and spend more time with their families enjoying life.
You have more than enough. You will never regret your decision. You may end up with a couple less future millions but meh.. it's not really about that.

Just confirmed this is the data received from Gox. Next to check that the timestamp that comes with it makes sense.
Looking at the timestamps, that one was from yesterday. The one before it is also out of order and there's one that failed. It's either Gox or Comcast.

I'll add in some code to verify that the timestamp is at least in the correct ballpark.

Any way of shorting the US?

But the FEC isn’t yet sold on allowing bitcoins to funnel into the bank accounts of political campaigns and outside groups supporting them, and commissioners deadlocked 3-3 along party lines Thursday.

rampion,
you abhor debt, but at the same time are dumbfounded why he would sell off his bitcoins so that he can get out of debt.
I sold hundreds of bitcoins back in march/april to eliminate myself of debt, and i regret NOTHING.

I see, its just that it takes a while to me to understand because i've NEVER been in debt in my life. NEVER.

How many coins did you cash out in total?
Just over 1800.
Edit: that's all I've ever had which includes spending at SpendBitcoins.
How are you planning to withdraw it from Gox though? Gonna take the 5% extortion fee?
That can't be helped. I may as well tell you, it's almost over now. I have several family members receiving from accounts I helped them make. They will receive the funds and transfer to me slowly. The extortion fee isn't as bad as the tax will be.
There is limit $10k USD/ month at gox. -> $500k is 50 man-months :-) (if any)
He must have his whole family withdrawing then? looool

With apostilled documents you can do $100k per day and $500k per months. I guess most of the people with +1,000 coins already sent apostilled documents, and I'd suggest to those holding as much as a few hundred coins to get the higher levels of trust in their exchanges, "you never know when you might need it"
