Trump Tweeting About Bitcoin Is ‘Achievement Unlocked,’ Says Coinbase CEO

Donald Trump saying he is not a fan of Bitcoin (BTC) and cryptocurrency is “yuge” for the industry, commentators were suggesting after new tweets on July 12.

In the hours after the United States’ president delivered his lackluster appraisal of crypto, the Bitcoin price stayed stable, only to then begin growing to hit 1% gains Friday.

Negative or not, for proponents, the event marked a psychological milestone for Bitcoin, as Trump had previously held off from mentioning it in public.

The fact that he felt the need to bash Bitcoin publicly feeds the narrative that it is both independent of global powers and unable to be crushed by them, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong stated, leading the responses.

“Achievement unlocked! I dreamt about a sitting U.S. president needing to respond to growing cryptocurrency usage years ago. ‘First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.’ We just made it to step 3 y'all,” he tweeted.

Armstrong exemplified the buoyant mood among Bitcoiners. Others likewise thanked Trump for the free publicity, noting a surge in interest documented by Google Trends, while the president being wrong in his opinion also became a talking point on social media.

“Congratulations BTC community — the president of the United States feels we are worthy of a tweet now,” cryptocurrency entrepreneur, Simon Dixon, added. “Bitcoin has outperformed USD by 23,440,508% since it started being priced in USD.”

Max Keiser, the RT host and regular Bitcoin bull, considered Trump to have nullified his chances of reelection in 2020, while eToro senior analyst, Mati Greenspan, described his words as an “early nomination for the most bullish tweet of the year.”

Despite the conversely more stable price performance since the tweets, the possibility of a ‘Trump pump’ occurring for Bitcoin was also gaining traction among analysts.

“Trump is bullish for Bitcoin generally because his media tactics wobble geo-political uncertainty. Thanks for all the dollars flowing into Bitcoin,” cryptographer and Hashcash inventor, Adam Back, added.

In the meantime, another, lesser-known cryptocurrency took the opportunity to capitalize on the buzz. TrumpCoin (TRUMP), an altcoin all but unknown since it appeared in March 2016, was up 28% Friday.

I have never read or heard this quote in his writing so far. Following quote " first they ignore.... then you win" is wrong and misquoted.

The actual/close quote is "First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. And then they attack you and want to burn you. And then they build monuments to you." used by Nicholas Klein in a 1918 - US trade address-

Older people mor so than younger still use them and they have one aspect they like and thats when they get their statements there are copies of the checks or the voided checks returned for their files. Not everyone wants top go paperless and like to have physical proof they paid for something.

If this Zerohedge post is true, the state of US finances are utter hilarity.  Treasury raiding 401k's?

smile croach, smile 

^Lol @ claiming that eastern Euro gypsy scammer is me.

yes, finally classified croach to cryptoniagroup and banned this two shits into one cage/barrel  
Most probably onian is an alter ego of croach dreaming possession of 50BTC. Anyway, booth are boring.

keep forum clean 

Well, in US some vendors (plumbers, electricians, roofers) take checks because they want to avoid 3% (or higher) credit card fee on their services.
Check cost nothing to deposit. We also have something called electronic check, which is probably another word for ACH (you can pay utilities and taxes with it).
It saves municipalities the same 3%.

Does your part of the world have FREE electronic payment (apart from el checks and ACH)? If yes, kudos.
Otherwise, you are forcing a fee on merchants.

Other than that, not much use for checks.

999th post & I feel alright.

r0achie, let it go.

Hahahaha... I was probably giving him way too much benefit of the doubt, even though I do consider him to be pretty low life scum in terms of what he is proposing, and even some concern that I have about his posts being allowed to continue in this thread (although maybe some of the posts have been deleted, recently... I am not sure?), even though some regular WO OGs are finding a decent amount of humor in their thoughts that no one would believe such baloney - but scammers like that do sometimes reach some level of success in their ability to hook some naive (or wishful) folks to give them some money (even at a discount or whatever the ultimate deal might cause them to receive the value of others)... or social engineer phishing, too.

Shit, it's great to see you free and safe and married to boot!
