What a full 8-post dream you have lived!

Of course, most will see through your BS.

10, but I sort of consider them free since I paid for them out of my profits from the first bubble.

If you lost the chance to sell high relative to the purchase price, then you incur an opportunity cost. If you bought high you have a capital loss. Even if you tuck your head in the sand and mumble "aaaabaaabababaaaa my bitcoins are all I need aaaaa..." you are still losing money during price swings.

They don't call it "resistance" for nothing.

almost 50 BTC and hitting myself I did not sell them, now it would not cover my initial investment.

I have just played around with a fraction of a coin that I made mining the first days of the bubble.
-At first I thought it was to litte to put into MtGox, but tried, and it worked.
I am up about 25% after playing around a little. Much better than the small amount I used at bitcoinbet....

Still waiting for my small wire-tranfer to come trough :P, should give me more legroom.:-)

Thinking of upgrading my 85Mhash GPU for a dual card setup and join the mining fun. 8)
And if BTC goes completely bust, it still seems fun, and I can always play games with a couple of badass GPU's

Good luck with that great strategy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunk_costs#Loss_aversion_and_the_sunk_cost_fallacy).

The past is done, don't think about your total loses. You need to make money now and selling at a relatively higher price is still a profit that can go towards your loss.

Was hoping to buy a new processor + motherboard, now ill have to wait even longer to finally get away from this piece of junk computer...


Title: Re: How many bitcoins do you presently own?
Post by: just1nmc on April 16, 2013, 10:49:39 AM
Bought 200 originally but all these price swings have brought it to ~600


Title: Re: How many bitcoins do you presently own?
Post by: samson on April 16, 2013, 11:03:34 AM
I sold all mine a few days ago for about $101-$100 each. I had about 610 bitcoin before I sold.

I plan on buying more when it bottoms out which could be some time from now.

I still very much believe in Bitcoin for the future however wild speculative bubbles followed by crashes like this won't do it much good.

I have 777. I bought at about 10 and about 17 (spent 10k total) and didn't sell any during the bubble.

With so many waiting for the bottom, many are going to miss it badly, I think we are in for a few weeks of sideways movement, and then a big spike back up, possibly into triple figures when peoples patience runs out.


Title: Re: How many bitcoins do you presently own?

Still in 4 digits range.... :)

Should have sold more though.

Did you sell it ? If no, you don't lose anything. Even if you bought it at $260.

I still very much believe in Bitcoin for the future however wild speculative bubbles followed by crashes like this won't do it much good.

I repurchased at $60/61, I now have 999.

It didn't take too long either.

This is what my uneducated gut is telling me, but my mind is second guessing it.  Last time I allowed my brain to supersede my gut I lost out on the big sell-off and barely broke even, selling what I didn't need for services.  I tried to hang on to a few, but to no avail.
After reading all the experienced bitcoiners' posts saying it will drop again shortly, it really makes it a tough call.  Most of the press I have read since yesterday has been positive(which is shocking and confusing).

Buying in at 69-70 sounds great if it's not going down any further. -.-

Not enough.


Title: Re: How many bitcoins do you presently own?
Post by: cdb000 on April 16, 2013, 08:06:45 PM
I sold half my coins at $97, and kept the other half.

If it goes down far enough, I can buy back and have more coins, and maybe keep some of the fiat.

If it goes up far enough, I wont care about having cashed out half my stash at $97.

Sure they will... Bubbles attract business people who recognize that this is part of the price discovery process for any new asset.  It will take a few months for the new businesses to get off the ground, but at least Bitcoin is on their radar now.

Mr Flavius, do you have that all in one address or is it split up into many? Would you mind telling us how many coins in how many addresses? Or just round numbers?

There's a list here of the 400+ richest bitcoin addresses, check out if you're there: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=92423.260
