It isn't over yet lol

Also, even if there is no lock down, they are still changing the activity of people in their day to day lives which helps prevent the spread.

Sweden:

Non-zero chance that dragging things out increases the chance that it mutates and sticks around that much longer. We just don't know enough to determine the best solution.

Thus, again my fear is that WHEN IMHO, the stock market actually does dump out at 50% of the
2020 high of around 2/14/20...Bitcoin will follow. Not because that BTC is not a good value long term, but because people will crack at a 50% drop in the stock market
and the frigging country is going shut down dead for 3-4 months! People may WANT to buy cheap stocks and cheap BTC/Crypto but real-life issues like keeping and paying for
Grandma in the Nursing home will take priority. Thus, if it is so bad that the major Whale HODL'ers also start to bail out at that point. We are screwed.

I'd like to buy more BTC at these prices long term but I am dead broke with real-life issues likely for the next 3 months as well! A friend said the good thing is the rental property will be 50% cheaper and he could buy one each. Until I pointed out NO RENTERS the university is likely closed till FALL and who knows about enrollment
than would be enough to even find renters at that point and he likely will be laid off in less than a month! Tossing BTC/Crypto if it becomes a long term
speculative investment into rental properties on my part, also long term, if that becomes the case for both, well, I like my odds with BTC/Crypto better, so I'm not gonna do it.

So hopefully, and I mean, I really, really, hope....that BTC only also goes down to 1/2 value more or less....say $5k when sh*t hits the fan. These next 2 months or
so with halving are gonna determine if BTC/Crypto is a store of value, unlike stocks, once the bottom price of both is hit? Or that BTC/Crypto is just a nice normal long term speculative investment you can dump quickly in bad economic times to fill your emergency/catastrophic fund 24/7. Thus as a 'speculative asset' it indeed may
come back when the stock market hits ATH again, in what 7-12 years maybe?

The next 2 months will tell. I'd settle for a nice sideways uncoupled from stock market
panic approaching, IMHO, at whatever price! Also that the Whales have drunk enough kool-aid to not 'crack' under pressure to dump on top of the above, that would be 'catastrophic'! Damn, 'Black Swan Events' on top of the Halving!

No idea myself wtf is gonna happen...but IMHO it will happen in next 2 months. I'm HODL'ing!

I just hope others are as stubborn and will accept a worse case, long term recovery to boot a

It is physically impossible for an exponential infection curve to go flat in one day. There is no question that they are lying.

Oh I thought this was reference to dark side of the moon.
Cause when I saw this pic last night the price was going down to $6150.
We need to get to the light side if we are to moon like novagratz says in that nice song of him.

Sweden has no lock down, most African countries
Belarus's authoritarian leader Lukashenko tells everyone go to sauna, no lockdown here, no COVID deaths so far.

Why are you in favor of preserving aids? Are you one of those people who think that sperm banks with aids is a good idea?

The real question is, what would the numbers be if there were no lock downs, no quarantines and no changes in anyone's daily life. Maybe we'll have a country in Africa or somewhere that doesn't do anything and we'll be able to see if all of the "panic" was worth it.

Then you also have to disregart Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, S. Korea, Japan,  Myanmar*, Mongolia*, Vietnam*, Laos*, Kyrgyzstan*, Tajikistan*, Bhutan*, Nepal*...........
*China neighbours, no deaths

Best comment I've read the last decade:

Those statistics are already outdated and are assuming that China has been completely transparent about their statistics regarding this matter. I don't trust China's level of transparency. I suspect that they only release numbers that make them look as good as possible.

I'm all in for taking care of our planet, as much as ourselves, but really?

Let's scare and lock most of them inside, whilst the planet breaths for a second, so we few - that control things - can have a blast of a time fucking it up ourselves.
We'll have to tag them, so we can track them though, like good sheep, for their own health and benefits of course.

This thread is black sheep country, do you know that?

Suicides will start in weeks, months time with all the economic ruins, it be way worse than the media turbo charged virus

They fill the awol resident-troll shoes.
It's a dirty job, but someone's gotta do it....

Don't forget the drop in carbon-intensive activities and pollution in general.
Perhaps this virus is just Mother Earth defending herself.

Yes and traffic fatalities will decrease by 2021 since everyone will be quarantined. So we are solving two problems.

I get your point and disappointment, but imo for this to work, they need to be here as well.
I don't see any harm in making some corn in the process.

 

@thanos, we can settle this like some gentlemen (drop me 50 merits), or we can get into some real gangsta shit, your call.

You know what. We should isolate them in a region like the old days.
Why should we let them walk freely on the planet? Your region would do just great.
Oh wait...

Ibi stop this death talk will ya, the whole tragedy is more than enough, without your degenerate comments.

Go.away.

My feelings exactly. For fiat.

Satan?  
I kid, I kid!

Edit:  to be fair, the table Roger tweeted compares corona deaths at a fairly early stage of this epidemic versus other death causes that have been going on for many years (forever, some of them), and have stabilised.  In other words, possibly corona could deaths could ramp up until they overtake other death causes in the table.  This is just to show that I'm fair-minded enough to see all sides of the question.
Nevertheless, in principle I think that a lot of what you see is panic and people engaging in something like virtue signaling, for lack of a better way to describe it.  Everybody has to scream noble-sounding things.
Don't scream anything, stop the group-think, step back and reboot the old critical faculties.  Atrophied critical faculties.  And exercise them.  It takes some effort to just chill like that when the urge is to go full Chicken Little.

#Never go full Chicken Little.

Roger?

My connection just re-upped so I just scored an oh-zee of preeemo tp.
