Some rumblings up thread about best and worse bitcoin actions...had to dig around some in the necro threads to find what I was looking for...but here we go.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2548113.20I am looking at one of my $17k graphics cards(bought for about 1BTC each back in 2014)right now...and yah..there is some regret I didnt hodl longer. Even worse..I can see the front fender of my truck sitting out in the driveway...bought that for 30BTC...not quiet a 150mio pizza...but it does sting. On the positive side..I tell all my friends that I drive a half a million dollar ride.
That is what I call my 'bad' decisions..though truth be told..I still have that truck and will never sell it. Mostly for the fact of when I roll up to my friends houses in it and park next to their eurotrash cars. Equally important is the fact that its completely mechanical. No on board tracking or even electronics to fail..
As for the video cards..well..they 'earned' their way so really no complaints there.
As for the good...whelps..heres a peek.. The 'cabin' is starting to look pretty decent.
A 10kWh grid tied solar array.
btw..that bear scat was just behind the treeline(there is a trail)... and the river runs about a 100 yards past that.
Not a terrible way to wake up in the morning I guess..
Whats my point? None really..other than the fact that when I traded for that truck I did it at absolutely the worst time. June of '13...the price had just rallied heavily from tens of dollars to a few hundreds of dollars...and then crashed back down to 50ish.. I flat out panicked and went full chicken little. I thought I was so clever dumping before it crashed down to zero....LOL. Traded those 30 coin at around $65 for a $2k truck... Now there is some back story as there always is.. I had the extreme need of a truck at the time to haul a trailer over the pass a couple of times and did a fast and dirty swap thinking I would be happy if it would just last a week. Turned out the truck just had a almost complete rebuild. New engine and tranny(less than 20k miles). I have put 50k on that truck and besides tires and oil changes it has not let me down once. Purrs like a kitten..
Just shows to go you how funny life can be at times.

OMG.... Toxic has been taken over by an alien (AKA bearshill doom and gloom pumper). What you shooting for? Sub $8,500 or some other "reasonable" bearish price that may or may not happen?
And here I thought my disguise was working...fml. Actually looking at $7.25k Jay tbh... You should know by now jjg that I just read the tea leaves..I dont make em.
My personal guess is that the honey badger is going to come along and spank all these wanna be bears once word gets out how shaky fiat systems actually are at the moment. Times be a changing my friend.
This dosent mean I wouldnt mind a nice diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiipppppppppp and to scoop up some more cheap coin. *shrug*
Here have a +1 WOsMerit just because.
Carry on.
You vision comes off as so damned "reasonable" that I have difficulties hating upon you with any degree of pent up vehemence.
Nonetheless, I recall that a decent number of occasions in which you had come out with similar negative proclamations of "reasonable" quasi-certainty that were announced towards the bottoms of correction cycles, and ultimately did not come close to playing out in anywhere near your pessimistic tealeaf-reading direction....
but hey, you seem to be engaging in a fairly risky task to take actual stances through your chart putting out activities ... All in a days work, I suppose, and if you promulgate enough charts, sooner or later, with a little praying and abracadabra, you are going to be spot on and within the monies.
I will
assume a benevolent stance on this matter...as you seem to be doing youselfie...
I am happy you see fit to accept my tea leaf readings for what they are in a speculation thread..God forbid someone actually took all of this seriously....
That being said..Id be happy to compare strike rates anytime.
