Nahh... Peter's doing it undercover, trying not to move the market or be caught with his hands in the cookie jar

or Peter Schiff?

You're probably right. I, too, have long forgone any evangelism. But this chick does care about her financial future, we've been talking money and stocks for a long time, she seemed so helpless... well, I failed and told her.

I'll be sure to poke her some more at 100k. She does deserve it if she doesn't get any btc and clings to her losing strategy of buying stocks and selling at the first dip wondering why she didn't pick the "really magic stock".

Elon Musk?

Apart from institutions buying all newly mined coins and more, people withdrawing from exchanges (reducing offer) and massive printing, I just think FOMO has really started.

There is much more demand than supply. Add to that bitcoin appearing in the news by constantly breaking ATHs. It's a snowball effect but at some point this has to go back.

$32,5k LOL

Congrats to my fellow WOers on the 30K breach.
Now can someone explain to me wtf is going on??

I'm not trying to convert nocoiners to bitcoiners anymore: tried many times but failed. Most of them ignored me, some bought BCH and sold it later. I'm not trying to save your soul anymore, you should get it yourself. Fuck off, you don't deserve it...  

Well I thought I would be waiting longer before I came back to congratulate everyone on 30k.
I feel like I was just here yesterday for 20k. 

$32380  

$32400 already

 

I'm worried that he traded all his Bitcoin for some big-blocker shitcoins.

I had another chat with my friend, the gal who likes to discuss savings/stock market with me. Classical weak hands type. I wrote about her a while back, on Dec 7, 2020. Price was around the old ATH @19k . (here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.55770951 )

Today she wrote me and started with a message like "Why is Bit coin rising? The government should ban it cuz launder drug money blah blah".

My first replies were curt.  "Bitcoin: one word or you'll sound like a noob. The primary cleaning agent for laundering is USD by far."

Then she said: "I am afraid, blah blah, so many types of bitcoin, how do I buy blah blah"

I was gentler. "Only one kind, ticker is XBT or BTC. The other 'types' look cheaper because they're junk. Don't touch them."

I went on - You need to open an account at an exchange. Try Bitstamp or Kraken. Avoid Coinbase if you can. You'll need to go through KYC/AML, money laundering my ass. Once you have a bunch, you'll need to make yourself a wallet and transfer them into your own possession. Bitcoiners say "Not your keys, not your coins".

Long story short, I held up to her barrage of questions and gave her a crash course. More than anything, I told her to buy and hold. I spelt it wrong, just like this: hold. She's not advanced enough yet to be taught proper spelling. I said it might go down. I'm pretty sure it will go down and you'll suffer. That is when you have to buy more. That's the difference between happy and sad in the long run.

At the end she said "Oh thank you. But you know, call me chicken but I won't."

I'm pretty sure she'll come around. She'll probably want some at 50k. What could I reply to that?

"Of course you're free to do as you please. Bitcoiners say 'Have fun staying poor' "

Lambos, hookers and blow... 

I hope all the fockers roach, gembitz and other dipshits can see the BTC price now...    you can start applying as waiters and shoeshine boys for the event we're not supposed to discuss here...

I was also thinking about LFC_Bitcoin.

And where's gentlemand? He's removed his sig and not posted for a month.

LOL

Do you hear that my friends?

It's FOMO starting to kick in.

Back to serious discussion.

The man in my avatar is my uncle JP, who died a few days ago. He was exactly 40 years older than me. I was quite close to him and even lived with him when I was studying in Paris. He wasn't a rich man but had enough money to help my parents and his other siblings buy real estate, he bought a house for my grandparents, helped my brother and me, too. During the last years of his life he could pay for 2 women to take care of him full time (Parkinson's). He also bought a new, more practical house, cash. Yet to me he didn't live a good life. He had real trouble spending money (outside of real estate) and would wear some clothes you could swear he found in the trash. This due to the fact my grandfather went bankrupt in the 50's and lost everything, it traumatized him. He never settled with a woman, and never travelled, we all tried to bring him with us when travelling but he always had an excuse to not come.

For this new year, let's keep in mind that money isn't everything, living a good life should be the goal.

Stoffel escaped again...
