Bitcoin Forum

I purchased a few bitcoins for $25 each before the crash.   I'm officially up!  Now... if I could only find that private key...

a problem i guess many will have.

i wonder how many coins will be "lost" from people buying during the last (only?!) bubble and then formatting their computer, etc.

You were always in the money bro.  ;)

( Not sure WTF that means, but it seemed like something.  ??? )

Luke, is that you?

If I were you, I'd cash out now before you get left holding the bag...again.

Ya man cash out... Honestly what bag are you talking about? you mean the huge bag of money that bitcoins turn into from just holding them?

seriously, where did you sell that you are so sad that you cant buy back in lower

I bought and sold all the way up and down the first bubble, through the stagnation around $5 (with my bot), and have been buying and selling all the way up this bubble (profiting the entire time)...thanks for your concern though.  ::)

I watched a lot of people buying in at $20-$30 last time; a lot of them were stuck with BTC they could barely give away a month later when they hit $1.98.  I'm hoping that people learn from their mistakes from last time and don't get caught up in the hype.  Someone needs to provide a counter-point to all the madness that people are spouting on the forum lately.

Like I'm sayin' ... this evolve guy is all over the place lately with some rather bizarre nonsense.  Methinks he's highly butthurt about something.  Or really fucking bored.

Ya why do I not believe you evolve?

I know many day traders and guess what they are all mostly awful at trading or have track records sub 50-60% correct in trading decisions, I can safely say that I do not waste my time day trading at all and have made 1100% since my initial investment,

also hows your zombie fund going? i would equate that to a tin can in front of a homeless person, maybe ill be kind and throw in .2 bitcents in there for you

spread all the fud you want, you look moronic saying hey sell all bitcoins right now! it only has been doing amazing this past year and right now is definitely the time to sell, Despite that others are selling 50K coins at a time and its not moving the market at all, selling anything under 1k is definitely a smart idea

your fighting for the wrong side, so the only explanations are 1, You suck at trading and only have lost money with bitcoin hence why you hate it so much , or 2. You want more coins at a cheaper price spreading fud like this,

He is just bearish, good to have some opposing views on the forum.

Why does no one listen to this guy???!

Because he's not right.
Every site I frequent for Bitcoin news is absolutely slammed with new users. Coinbase just reported they don't have enough to cover potential buyers. There is no giant ponzi scheme this time around, there is no hack of Gox, there's no bad news.
Take this guy's advice with a huge grain of salt. You could get burned really, really badly! When Bitcoin reaches critical mass, do you think it will just go up a dollar every month real casual-like?
Hell-to-the-fuck no.

Yep, and thanks for helping out. I appreciate it and feel the same way. The current rally is overheated and the discussions more of a mania than a calm exchange of opinion.

With reasonable expectations and patience, Bitcoin speculation can be interesting and profitable. But I'd prefer it not as a get-rich-quick scheme that works by randomly driving price to the moon. (Just so that everyone changes their minds and panic sells moments later.) That's not the point of speculation in the first place; it's supposed to make prices stable, not draw diagonal lines in time or jump 'em around Super Mario style!

Also, the nonsense level lately is annoying.

Bears talk so much shit but cannot produce a single, substantial reason why the price should go down - other than the fact it went up.

If everyone hoards, who gives a shit? What is the difference between saving and hoarding?

I started listing what you listed to make comments on, and everything was "good." How is porn bad? That's perfectly legal. How does terrorism even factor in here? Or drugs? Oh wait, that can be lumped into "GOVERNMENT."

The only two I would agree with you on are:
1) Government
2) Too hard to obtain (hoping more places like Coinbase spring up for higher volume)

However, these two things have always been the case. If anything, it's easier to get into Bitcoin than it was a year ago.

also want to add to humanitees post and say that terrorism cant even stop bitcoins, matter of fact it drove the price up

if i remember correctly anonymous made a threat to romney to release his tax forms if they werent sent 1.0M USD in bitcoins,

I remember that day clearly

it was just the closest example in relation to BTC, sure i wouldnt say it is terrorism either but still it made the price go up not down and it was a "threat" against a presidential candidate

There was never a doubt, only a matter of patience. 

Aaaaaandddd it's gone. You're out of the money again ;)

Too bad no one told him to cash out before it was too late....

...Oh, wait.....

 ;D

Meh, it ll go back up, just have some patience.  We were overheating.

Actually, I agree. I don't think we'll see a severe crash (down to singles) until we are past the all time high. 

I don't think we'll jump right back though.  Some hot heads just got cooled.  Guess it will take people at least a week or so to recover from the cold splash.

Yeah, I think people will be a little shook and wait for the dust to clear to buy back in.

Actually, I jumped in too high in the correction (hoping for a quick profit) today, and got caught with my pants down.... ;D..... I figure I will just wait it out and take profits once we are back on track (I don't panic sell).

 

You were hoping to frontrun a dead cat bounce?

Most of my profits since the price raised from single digits have been from jumping in and out during corrections.  Its somewhat risky, but as long as you set clear entry and exit points (and avoid emotional trading) it seems to work fine as a trading strategy...at least for me.

Then again, I'm trading an amount of money that I don't need or care about (I considered it "lost" when I first bought in a couple of years ago) so I have a fairly large tolerance for risk.

And almost back in the money again.... gotta love bitcoin!

Evolve yo uwere right for about a whole 10 seconds,

with this rate we should blast past 26.30, where we settle who knows but in the end Im confident we willbe higher than we are now,

If you read a few posts above you, you'd see I agree (to a point).

I think we will beat the all time high before we see a major crash....which is why I am still daytrading/swingtrading, and will be up until the high 20's.(and then I'm out until after the crash)

Wow, guess who was wrong.

Hahaha, yeah you and me both!! I definitely didnt expect it to bounce back this quick...  (not that I'm complaining ;D)
