Post by: Birdy on October 23, 2013, 02:27:15 PM Quote You'll see Bitcoins, the everlasting fascination of Silicon Valley crypto-geeks, being not only spoken about as an investment-grade commodity despite having higher volatility than your average Baldwin brother, but inspiring entire investment vehicles (one of which is structured by celebrity twins) that give ordinary investors as well as the tech-savvy crowd the chance to lose money when the fad runs its course. Bitcoin is a fad again :) Title: Re: Bitcoin is...bullshit? Post by: Johnny Bitcoinseed on October 23, 2013, 02:30:07 PM Yes, just like they were saying back in 1994 that the Internet was bullshit.

Sure, just lump everything together without even a slightest attempt to understand the difference - you cannot be wrong in 100% of cases, indeed some of the mentioned investments WILL go bad. As a result, you can say a year from now with total self-confidence: "See, I was RIGHT!" Title: Re: Bitcoin is...bullshit?
