Here's the 2011 "I'm gonna stay in Bitcoin forever and I'll be rich someday" post:

Are you currently putting all your money into bitcoin?  If you say this, you show you believe it by your actions.  I am putting all my money into bitcoin - I see a possibility of $50-$100+ per coin this year.  Just think, once the "bankers" and hedge funds find out about this, we are going to the moon.  Once my bitcoins are $1,000+ I will be able to pay off my growing college loans and maybe get an apartment, and my first car

I personally favor Monero, since it's the anonymous encrypted internet money that the original Silk Road users once thought Bitcoin was, and is the world's first true digital cash.  As a Bitcoin miner & trader since early 2011, I have loved it and still do for various things, but unfortunately Bitcoin is already legacy (e.g., Netscape Navigator).  If you want true next-gen Bitcoin 2.0 cryptocurrency / digital cash, Monero is the new kid on the block (e.g., Google Chrome alpha/beta). Monero / XMR isn't a fork of Bitcoin but rather rewritten from the ground upwards, is fungible, untraceable, anonymous, & scalable (and they fixed the block size problem too), and some Bitcoin devs are updating Monero's code which gives it credibility, as well as multiple Ph.D. cryptographers. I've converted my BTC funds to XMR and don't plan on going back to legacy (except when necessary using services such as https://xmr.to). The free market shall decide...

Moral of the story: Stay the course, stay in Bitcoin, don't give in to shitcoins.


Or a more recent example - mindrust  Cool

In order to dump coins one must have coins
In just 4 yrs the reward will be BTC3.125 per block
plot twist, a rare bug causes the 3rd halving to become a quartering down to 3.125 btc instead of 6.25 btc.

 Iniatially price dumps dramatically until it's figured out bug is rare and oneoff issue only. Then price goes stratospheric as supply shock becomes absorbed.

nah no bugs please, don't want to mess with credibility

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"

Seems to me that bitcointalk was the vehicle of the new wealthy elite, gentlemen idea with Astro (now banned member (that's why his name is listed as "anonymous") from June 4, 2011 - see his first post in the thread, below (and linked, too).  The thread was shut down in mid-2018, after the spam posting seemed to have gotten a bit out of control in that thread.  Seems that there are a lot of decent historical discussions in that thread.

After reading this, the scale of black market and digital economies and the effect Bitcoin will have on them I am pretty certain we are going to be very wealthy men -- even with a sum as small as 10 Bitcoins. It's just so hard to believe. We are only in the beginning storms with these significant rallies from 10 to 20 dollars. I will not be surprised to see prices from hundreds to thousands in the coming months.

The world just isn't going to be the same and we have been blessed as the pioneers.

What are you going to do with your Bitcoin wealth once your coins hit upwards of $10,000 a pop?<<<<<<<<<



Edit:

Elwar beat me to it:

sketchy exchanges crashing/going offline before you can liquidate,

you mean like Coinbase yesterday?

Yep. Pretty sad that one of the supposed *premier* Crypto exchange brokers in the world can still go down like that.

After all these years, it's still flaky and suspicious behavior from them. Dare I say criminal?

If he held on to Monero and sold near the top, he would have done just fine.

Moral of the story: if you dump Bitcoin for a Shitcoin, be impeccable in your timing and choice.

Yeah, but really tough to time that. Most often they sell way too soon, or hold through the crash. Plus there's almost no liquidity in shitcoins to get the price you want, sketchy exchanges crashing/going offline before you can liquidate, exit scams, etc.

Dont want to sound like a prty pooper but whats with all the Red?
I thought this was going to be a fun party?
That livestream with ver et al is all anti BTC too.
I switched off.
Anything with ver showing up on it is instant flatline. Wink

They are pretty upbeat at the one I have been mentioning for the past hour about. Cheesy
They are trying to match the number of viewers to the price of bitcoin and with it dropping they are just about there. Grin

Much better stream thanks.
