The odds of a party or the odds of $100k?!
LOL...if btc will be at $100K, a party will happen (99.99% probability in my guesstimate  ) but the price within 5 years to reach 100K (max 10%, you stick a knife in my heart)  when moon, when 100k party, when the dream, etc........... or just eternal hodl  You should not need $100k BTC to get rich from bitcoin. Of course, $100k will help, but you should be able to get rich by overall prudent investing, dollar cost averaging, as long as BTC continues to do its thing.. even if the upward performance becomes less steep.. let's say in the 10% per year arena rather than the 60% to 100% arena... (yes, I understand ways of calculating can vary), but my point is that you should not need $100k to get rich. That is 25x from todays price, which certainly is not guaranteed, even if it has decent chances, counting on it seems both fiscally and psychologically irresponsible. (like gambling with what should be an investment).. If we get to $100k I may or may not hire a bunch of nerds to make a game with no regard for profit margins. I miss wasting my life in an MMO. The theme park shit we have today sucks ass. And anywhere before that I'm looking forward to funding some basic research as well as handing out some scholarships to pay back for my free overseas holidays. |

We got leak of Bitmain Q3 numbers! COMPLETE DISASTER. The company lost $740 Million including losses on inventory and bitcoin cash! And this is not accounting for hash war costs! #bitmainipo @HKEXGroup They needed that fork as another hole in their head books. My dick is so fucking hard right now it could smash diamonds. |

oh fuck, I cant believe it escalated to this
now I am totally torn, my first inclination is to join many others in telling Bob that it is all good, which it is, I mean, it was a fun little thing to rib him about from time to time but that was all
but on the other side, here is an opportunity to have verifiable involvement in this "pizza" moment in history, indelibly etched into the blockchain for all time
when I tell people that I was on the night that the HODL thread went down, jackhammering F5 and laughing my ass off, they are like "yeah sure"
to be able to tell them that the solid gold divan they are sitting on was purchased with Bob's beer money...with a signed hash to prove it...
I'm not sure I can pass that up
NOW if you put it that way  Oh my. |

Man if they have another house they could just try to short it now and make up for it with some profit to spare.

Am I the only bastard who's drinking bob's beer? All you guys refuse his free beer offer. Are you guys trying to make me feel bad? Should I feel bad? :p
I prefer to drink alone and really didnt want a beer... just wanted to meet Bob. how could a guy like you wanna drink alone...... when there would be a party "100K " you are the official theme creator i guess? nobody can create and have the ideas like you have. I drink a dram or two on my own from time to time. |

Why don't we celebrate in Amsterdam?
Very friendly city for all kinds of people.
Temprature Temperature is quite good in summer. That's not an excuse imo. There's really only one option secure enough and extravagant enough - Salyut 3, the only space station to have ever been fitted with an operational weapon. Definitely no farting though. We could make up our own laws in space too. Like no central banking and no shitcoins. |

Amsterdam is still on my bucket list. But I don't really have any preference right now. Good ideas so far though. |

Im sure this has probably been asked before many, many times but whats stopping you buying on Stamp (at clearly lower prices) & then going straight to Bitfinex & selling (at a higher price).
Rinse & repeat.
Would it be that easy or am I missing something?
It's called arbitrage and being done constantly. You have to keep in mind the transfer duration, transfer fees and trading fees, the biggest factor of which is the timing. The profit margin of any such inefficiency quickly drops to the cost of the transfer + trade with a risk premium on top to adjust for the delay. |

Looks like we're going to hit $4,100
We need more drama! But I took out a mortgage to short Bitcorn with 100x leverage. |

He offered, he meant it - I think most feel that's enough. In fact, we are witnessing a historical moment. It will be in the books alongside Laszlo's pizza. #markmywords Marked With crayon? Zebra Comic Pen Nib - G Approved. |

We have a $250 bounce since last night, what signals should we expect to see of a true recovery trend?
I'd be 99% convinced once we're back at ~6k. Before then it would reek too much of a bull squeeze. Probably either another drop before then, or a sharp reversal followed by a fresh and ugly bottom. I could see the second scenario being more bullish, as all the noobs and plebs would see the spike followed by a sharp drop and then start FOMOing in. But since the whales keep stalking this thread we'll just go straight to the moon, just to make sure nobody can trade the sensible scenarios. Checkmate. |

Ok. See. Right there is one of the reasons I outright ignored JJG.
Even though I'm pretty sure JayJuanGee is a Google chat bot that just cut and pastes things from dictionaries, from an outside, non-biased perspective, I would say he has more shitcoin credibility due to the fact BOB was telling everyone NOT to sell at the top while he was dumping everything. Then he typed something like "thanks guys, I'm now a millionaire" right after. It was something resembling an altcoin pump and dump group from the year 2013. He didn't say it once, but numerous times telling all the other shitcoiners in the thread not to sell while he was. Lucky for Bob, I seem to be the only person that remembers that. He's right, you know? I may not be the smarter guy in the class, but I do have an exceptionally good memory and that's not how things were. Everyone is free to go back and check all Bob's posts of december past year. I don't need to. He announced his plan of cashing out enough for retirement well in advance. And every time after he sold a batch. Sometimes even before. Also he was millionaire way before. And just the Bcash stash alone that he sold months before the ATH amounted for nearly a millionaire figure. This tallies with the record. roach just made up some shit and repeated the lies there^. Mr mayor was on much safer ground when he recently brought back to the fore that I was wrongly bullish way after the top, but so what? Guess it's part of the grieving process, to try and impugn others, or lash out, or whatever is going on. Did the Mayor capitulate completely? Haven't seen him in a while. |

Hey guys.... Lets not plan the funeral yet pls? First i want to be able to experience a peak ATH as well okay?  (temporary, previous) then you buggerred about with mining a few months later. What's up with you man? did you not buy at the top liek a good noob? What on earth is your problem... Check my account; i'm around here for years... true; i didnt believe in bitcoin and missed some good opportunitys, but i've made up for that and am aquiring them thru mining, yes. Whats your excuse? Please forgive my rudeness. I can't make sense of the bolded parts. Do you have a link where you say you've been around for years? I must have missed it. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm |

I am not sure this thread attracts that many risk adverse types. Sure it would be just fine thou [...] (I'm sure it wouldn't turn into a lord of the flies type scenario... honestly, it will be juuuuust fine ) I'm thinking it'll be more like the Japanese movie Battle Royale. @Boblawblaw - Very kind & generous offer to the WO boys here but Im not going to take $7 off you man. Buy yourself a drink with the $7 that was meant for me.
Perhaps the declined beer money could be donated to a charity instead? Free Ross? In the spirit of Bitcorns and freedom. |

Well, should probably go without saying, I rescind my offer of throwing a $100k party, if/when the milestone is achieved. If I've fucked up an intended good-faith beer offering in this thread so badly due to bad planning/foresight on my part or whatever, I have no business pondering more grandiose "events". Not to mention the considerable scorn I have accrued, bearing down upon me, is beginning to weigh heavily on me.
All my calls have turned out to be contrarian, looking back through the lens of retrospection.
I offer nothing of value to this thread.
I should just delete this account and get on with life in meatspace...
Just stick around and see what you've learned during the next cycle. That's how life should go. Fucking off now would be what the plebs do to stay in the 99%. |

We haven't seen the bounce yet.
From 2014 until now ive seen at least Six 2x reversals after severe dumping like this.
_____________
Additionally
Do not ignore the altcoin market and its significance in catapulting the price of BTC back in 2017 and soon in 2019-2020. The current capitulation has sent some of the legit alternative blockchain projects to insanely low marketcaps (talking about the sub $15M), so low that people might get FOMO on them once again, generate enough 10-50x returns to create a snowball effect, and contribute to the catalyst of the next crypto bull run in the process.
The altcoin market is here to stay and the hundreds of legit projects of today and tomorrow will continue to create demand and drive the price of BTC up. For the ignorant BTC maximalists: do not underestimate the 47% altcoin market share and the hundreds of thousands of lines of codes that are being written every day to improve the ecosystem.
Very accurate. Not going to shill in WO, but will repeat myself again. There are legitimate alts with increasingly bright prospects. BTC will replace fiat. Alts will become modern equity. There are opportunities to throw money at early stage giants, and throwing some BTC at them will help increase any BTC stash with much less risk than trading (which doesn't make it risk-free, dyor). |

My comment also includes a reference to Bob's representation that he was going to give beers to everyone if the BTC price goes below "x".... BTC price went below "x" and he weasled as good as any disingenuous person that you cannot rely upon at his word.
OK fucker. You just had to push me. I just had to sneak a peek and see whatever nonsense you are crying on about, with respect to not writing checks my mouth has cashed. You are so fucking pompously entitled that it sickens me. If you, for ONE FUCKING MOMENT, think that I was not honest in my desire to follow through with the intention of buying everyone in this thread a beer, then go fuck yourself. It would have become an OpSec and logistical nightmare; I think even you can see that. That's why I ultimately "weasled" <sic> out of it, while trying to do so with humor and grace. But now seeing this bullshit pettiness from you has me seeing red, and I'm contemplating possibly violating my OpSec to follow through (eg: Any user within 20 pages either way of "that" post can ping me for $7 USD worth of BTC to put towards a beer purchase.) It's not even the fucking value of the BTC. It's just that if I make a "good natured, boastful" post like I do in the past, fail spectacularly - repeatedly - everyone get's a chuckle out of it, and nobody gets hurt, then I don't understand your deal, man. It's called "talking shit" and "bantz", you dumb-fuck. JJG, if you want your fucking free beer, and finally put your "grievance" with me to bed, find out what the BTC/USD price was, on the day of my post, post your address here in this thread publicly, and I'll figure out some non-OpSec breaking-way to buy your pussy ass a fucking beer and post the TX. In fact, compile me a fucking list of all users within 20 pages each way of my "free beer" post, and I'll send them BTC (back-valued to $7 at the time of whatever it was when I posted) for a fucking beer, if they drop me a PM. Then when I see you at the $100K party, you MUST attend, and you MUST allow me to give you a clean right-cross square across your smug fucking face. Deal ? I assumed this whole beer/party thing was more of a shitpost than anything else due opsec from the very start. Is the party actually real now, and if so, how the fuck do people stay safe? Hanging out with some of the WO shitposters sounds great, but I don't see how that could take place without introducing unnecessary risk. We live in a dangerous world 100k coins i suggest BOB would be sending Pm invitations to a Nice place somewhere carribean or so and you can just go with your AvatarHAT on top of you, Then we know who is who. from there we Will see what happens next That actually sounds reasonable. |

On another note. The WO drama indicator is reaching all-time highs, which implies an extremely violent reversal into the next bull market. 1 BTC = 1 Lambo inc.
