Bitcoin Forum

Yes, why are you bears here if you don't believe in bitcoin? To buy cheap bitcoins perhaps?  :D

Lately... to short. This is a speculation subforum. I am sure there is a cultist subforum somewhere else. Have fun, there.

Sure, if you say so.....  :D

To earn some $$  :-[

If all you do is HODL, then why are you here? You already made your speculative decision.
Remember, without bears, you would have no coins.

and why does it have to be black and white with you people? Why can't someone be bearish in the moment? I mean, there is plenty of reason to be bearish right now, and very little reason to be bullish unless you're so overly biased that you can't see anything but that. Then I must assume that you feel threatened in your position, otherwise you would be rejoicing in all these "cheap coins"
Just keep a tight grip on your precious. It'll keep you afloat   ;)

There is more reason to be bullish now than ever before, and I have been in for going on two years now. BTC was a speculative bet that worried me constantly last year, it had no real value beside silk road transactions. Now it is beginning to fulfil its function....bring decentralised banking to the un-banked. I spend quite a bit of time in India, and everyone there is beginning to get it, even some of the billionaires  i know through school who have no need for it are just starting to get excited.

BTC is not for rich westerns with decent banking...use a credit card it is better in all ways at this point in time ( besides political reasons of course ;) ). BTC is not so you can all get rich in 6 months. Bitcoin is the democratisation of banking and finance for the billions who lack access to it. BTC is for $30 Mozilla smart phones and people earning $5 a day.

Seriously if you can't see what is happening around you, you never really believed in BTC at all. You were just hoping you could sit on your ass and get rich like you saw others do before you.

Give me one good reason to be bearish....other than...i thought I would be rich by now and i'm not so i'm going to throw a tanty. 6 -12 month price fluctuations are irrelevant. Suck it up you pathetic little rich bitches sitting at home in your 1st world country, with your $1000 computers and irrelevant little dreams.

This is somewhat of a cultist sub-forum... full of TA cultists, etc.

Being a speculation sub-forum in a Bitcoin forum it attracts both the Bitcoin faithful and those who drink the TA Koolade.

It's also going to attract those who have a vested interest in seeing Bitcoin fail, for whatever reason.

It also attracts the merely curious.

There's enough room here for everyone if we can all learn to get along.

That said, it also serves as a great opportunity to laugh at permabears, who always seem to take themselves far too seriously.

@OP

Loosen up. You're starting to act like a bear.  :)

to tell the truth about what's going to happen soon, bitcoin final capitulation! sell or lose everything!

That's the kind of bear I'm talking about!!!  >:(

That's not a bear. That's a troll.

So you are talking about bears, but meaning bear-trolls. A bear troll is a simplified, exaggerated and provocative form of a seller, that does not exist in the real market or even if there are existing a few, they have no impact on the market.

They are here to anger you.

everybody out! only who good at dreaming stay! what? you can see/tell the real situation of bitcoin? don't tell me i don't want to face reality! get out of here!

ok, now let's have a "to da moon" daydream of happiness, we will never sell our $100,000,000 worth coin, how strong is our brotherhood! let's forget about the realistic world :D

Nuts!!!!

True!!! Cheers!

I'm here to shill on behalf of the evil banksters.

+1 I agree but, this falllling has crossed the line

Finally some honesty!

That is the funniest thing I've seen in ages. The speculation subforum is the heart of the cult.

In the end, does anyone know what they are doing, or are they just shouting and talking for the fun of it????  ;)

Indeed!!!  ;)

See this threat for the stats on the proportion of bears to bulls on this forum...
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=394762.0

The question is not "why are there so many bears?", but rather "why are there so few bears?"

Obviously.

The bears are here to spread the word about the bitcoin collapse in order to buy cheap coins from the weak hands.

I'm equally annoyed by both perma-bears and perma-bulls.  When I contribute my perspective I hope to get other differing perspectives to evolve my understanding and perspective.  There are too many cheerleaders in here for each extreme that do nothing but add noise...

qft

This is the main reason of most bears... I am bull :P

I want the bears and trolls to fight each other... Enter the bulls to finish them off  :D

LOVELY!!!!!!  :D

that's my feeling as well. this is where bulls come to post pictures of rockets, trains and moons and shout CCMF whenever there is a bump in price. but if the price drops, "bitcoin is not a get rich quick scheme." :D

Yes.

Let's be fair to the bear and let them own the sub forum while time is good for them.

When the trend reverse, moon, train and rocket will again filled this whole sub-forum.

agreed, bulls are lying scammers who try to fool people to buy their bags so they can sell higher

confirmedsauce

Won't go that far and call them scammers.

Pumper would be a more accurate description for perma-bull.

There is probably also a bitcorntalk forum for the ultra bears.  ;D

You're just not getting it, we believe in Bitcoin.  You're confusing that with wanting the price to be very volatile and shoot up for no good reason.  This is not what someone would want to see if they believed in Bitcoin.  The price would be very hard to maintain and people would lose faith and sell.  This is not good unless your speculating on the price which I see nothing wrong with either(and I think your doing..).  You say things don't have to be black and white but then you ask why is it that those who hodl visit the forum as if they need to star away haha.  Simplest and obvious answer is they are keeping track of their investment.  You as a bull have know reason at all to be here because you don't believe it Bitcoin.  I don't care that you're here I just wanted you to understand your not making any sense at all.   8)
