Because bitcoin is not easily traded on margin. However, you can take out a line of credit to buy bitcoins.

Its different being hard to be a bear than being a Bear-o-phobe.

It's not because we don't like they and it's not  because they are wrong. It's because they are hilariously and spectacularly wrong and yet still so sure of themselves. It's quite funny.

Sounds like bluffing to me: talking shit on the on-line fora while re-mortgaging their house to BUY BUY BUY! :D

This is to be expected by the average Bitcoiner by now.

These days the number of lenders seems higher. Whenever I look at the current lending market, there's someone with a few thousand dollars available at the "flexible rate".

That said, I'm definitely taking advantage of the current interest rates :)
