Title: This guy lost 80k dollars buying future B2X Post by: ThisManIsTesting on November 09, 2017, 08:58:42 PM Bart Jellema, This guy bought 80 000 $ in Bitcoin SegWit2X futures Arguing he believe it will become real Bitcoin, after SegWit2x stopped, this guy just lost all of his money.
I want to know how B2X future coin can be bought, this is just a ridiculous scam from the exchange or the seller of those future B2X.

Title: Re: This guy lost 80k dollars buying future B2X Post by: thedec4 on November 10, 2017, 08:49:51 AM As mentioned earlier... People should only invest what they are happy to lose.. If you put £1000 into LTC and the value decreased by 1/2 then you've lost £500. The thing I always ask myself is would I be alright if I lost it due to market changes..
Title: Re: This guy lost 80k dollars buying future B2X Post by: hownowbrowncow on November 10, 2017, 09:07:44 AM Yah, looks like he is not too concerned about his loss. But if he was so capable of losing 80k on a split BTC, you would think, he would have been better off buying BTC at the beginning of the year, when it was less than a grand.
Title: Re: This guy lost 80k dollars buying future B2X Post by: 0o on November 13, 2017, 10:16:42 PM He actually says he is happy to have lost that money and that he would do it again. Does someone have his email? I'd have a business to offer to him :)
