There isn't enough bitcoin for all of today's millionaires to own an entire bitcoin each. We won't call them millionaires anymore though, they will be known as "wholecoiners". This may be the last chance for the average person to acquire a full bitcoin and that title. https://twitter.com/alecziupsnys/status/1102908165719506947?s=21I boldly claim to be the first one who came up with this observation. Must have been in 2015 or 2016 and i think it was in this forum. It is funny since I remember that back then this observation did not receive much attention, but in the last two years it appears in twitter, reddit and even crypto media outlets quite regularly. July 3, 2014. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=676030.msg7664884#msg7664884There were 29 million millionaires in the world in 2012 (probably more now). Each of them cannot get even a single bitcoin.
It is typical for millionaire home offices to allocate at least 5% to alternative investments.
If, instead of 5%, bitcoin will become just 1% of millionaires investment, the price at the equilibrium would have to be $40000 to achieve this allocation (1%).
This does not even take into consideration the other 99.4% of the humanity. wow, you have beaten my post by almost 2.5 years. Very unlikely that I have posted something like this before July 2014. I bowe to you and please excuse my false claim. Your observation is making its way even to msm. congratulations. |

the signs of economic crisis are on the wall. if you guys decide that it could be appropriate to own at least ONE btc, be reminded that this will be very difficult to achieve.
there are 16 million of you on our planet. but there will only be 21 million btc ever. 16 million btc are already mined. no one knows how many are lost, no one knows how many are held by hardcore hodlers (who will never sell), no one knows if the first million btc (satoshis stash?) will ever move.

can anyone find this observation stated by some other person before Nov 2016? edit: July 3, 2014. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=676030.msg7664884#msg7664884There were 29 million millionaires in the world in 2012 (probably more now). Each of them cannot get even a single bitcoin.

Time is running out. Less than 36 hours.
To get your bitcoin below 4k
Source Thanks well that escalated quickly. |

and some day in the future they think about unpegging it... zuckerberg can´t let the winklevoss guys win the grand crypto price. also: facebook as a global bank must give some traditional banksters some nightmare. |

can you?
I can select one to heat up. Does that count? sounds pretty advanced to me. |

I see bitcoin breaking the 4100-4200 usd resistance level before the close of this month.Unlike the previous pumps and dumps,there is significant growth in trade volume,consistently trading about 9 billion daily ( assuming exchanges are not "wash trading").
she knows what she is talking about! Can she cook a good meal though? can you? |

And so communication breaks down. You made a false claim and you know it and, as always is the case in these events, you refuse to admit it.
Bullshit. I'm here. I can't talk/prove you out of this, because you apparently are not that open minded. Also is that little language barrier. You can claim what ever you want, but it doesn't make it so. You prove all the bullshit you previously mentioned.By the way I'm not a feminist or anything. But we are equal. I just don't agree that women are only for breeding. If you find the right one, she will elevate you as man. you can´t argue with someone who claims that discussing the existence of reptilian overlords is justified historically.  maybe he´s trying to entertain. and his claims are so hilarious that it is actually really entertaining. |

holy moly! what a pile of bullshit. this guy contradicts himself in so many ways and has clearly no clue. the only thing he gets right is that ETH is not secure. I’m an associate editor at MIT Technology Review, focusing on the world of cryptocurrencies and blockchains. My reporting, which includes a twice-weekly, blockchain-focused email newsletter, Chain Letter (subscribe here), revolves around one central question: Why does blockchain technology matter? |

Simply put, humanity came from the sea - and to the sea it shall return.  Elwar is a pioneer. Not too many WO posters have actually built what they are dreaming of and not just talked about it. Impressive. edit: typo |

The world gold council says this huh? No chance they could be bias now is there?
The more impressive part is they are worried enough to put out this press release that is what i thought when the ECB published a detailed memo about crypto in 2013. they must be shitting their pants. imho, the fact that there is no headquarter nor CEO of bitcoin (other than the WO thread of course, but they don´t have a clue) is what scares them most. |

So this bcash shill, big block fanboy who tries to tell naive folks in bitcoin forums they should abandon their valuable btc and buy this scammy shitcoin is still around here?
Well, there goes the respect I had for you. You better check your fucking assumptions, boyo. I have never advocated that people abandon their BTC for BCH or SV. The fact that I advocate the big block branches of the Bitcoin family tree -- from a technical viewpoint -- does not make me someone who tries to talk anyone into anything. Except maybe being a bit more discerning. I recall that you did actually exactly that. you advised newbies they should sell btc and buy bigblog-scamcoins. Somewhat ironic that back then, when i pointed it out to you, i was stating that this made me lose the respect i had for you. If you love bcash so much and hate btc so much, why the fuck are you here? It is no bcash forum. And you will not get anyone convinced of the shit you are posting about. Technically... technically.. t e c h n i c a l l y bcash is worth 3% of bitcoin. you have lost. all others big blockers went away because they knew they lost. but you are still here, repeating the same crab that no one believes like a broken record. to me the only conclusion: paid shill. and your reaction is telling the same story. oh, and thanks for being such a celebrity computer engineer. |

I must have been unclear when I said I wasn’t going to discuss it with you because you have got big old bags and only talk your book
Hopefully, there is someone out there to pump that shit for jbreher (oh jbreher is that someone). So this bcash shill, big block fanboy who tries to tell naive folks in bitcoin forums they should abandon their valuable btc and buy this scammy shitcoin is still around here? Either completely masochistic or - much more likely - paid shill. I wonder how many of those who believed the ongoing misleading, scammy posts of this shill have lost money because they bought worthless bcash. and even after all his arguments are proven to be misleading/false, even after loosing all the battles, even after the split, even after complete defeat, he still comes back in here and keeps shilling with the same lame arguments that weren´t true the first few rounds. shame on this guy. doesn´t seem to have even the slightest trace of honor in him. very sad. why the fuck he isn´t posting in bcash forums, why here? paid. disgusting. |

I recognise that I am currently being biased by my actual circumstances, which are far from ideal to increase my risk stake. Otherwise I would probably be acting very differently. I need to be extremely cautious right now, even if that means I am giving up to some potential (yet risky) profits. Again, a mans gotta do what a man's gotta do.
Lot´s of hodlers feel that way I think and it is refelcted in the charts: bears somewhat exhausted, but bulls still a bit shellshocked from the November dive. Even hodlers that would want to even go down with a sinking ship had to consider to sell in order to not go down completely in real life. |

Wird wohl nix mehr mit neuen ATH's...   das sieht übel bzw super aus! den chart erlaube ich mir zu x-posten... thx! Würde auch gut der lordoliver-schen Schranke entsprechen :-) So Jungs. Jetz hab sogar ich ne buyorder bei 3k drin. Bis dahin können wir also nicht fallen.
Wäre ja mal ganz was neues, wenn sowas bei mir durchgeht ;-)

Take that Vitalik!  Google knows that there's only one coin that's here to rule - " BTCitcoin"! That's some next level bitcoinism! Actually, there's a word for that I think, but I can't recall it... Bitcoin maximalism? Maxism? Whatever, the point is, accepting only Bitcoin and disregarding everything else is stupid. I presume that most people who do that were also calling Bitcoin shit before they see the price skyrocket; because such people wouldn't give anything a chance in their mind until proven wrong. That's a joke right? Google didn't really write that? That is what I thought. If that isn´t a hoax, I´d raise my glas to harsh kick in the balls. |

can anyone dig out a prediction that beats this one in accuracy and efficiency? found this gem in a 2013 price poll. 17.7.2017, 17:17:17 Uhr: 17.423,13 € bzw 26.861,24 USD (1 Euro = 1,5417 USD)
the guy made only one post ever, predicted a 2017 price of €17.423 while in reality price went to €16.457 in 2017. missed it by 5%  Isn't it the stop clock is correct twice a day phenomenon? If you look at any BTC price prediction thread, you are going to find price predictions all over the map, and of course, there are going to be a few that are really close to what actually ends up happening.. but I doubt the fact that the close to correct predictions getting their predictions correct reasonably infers that the person(s) predicting knew anything concrete about the BTC price future at that particular time. if those correct predictions are so abundant please quote them in case you come across some. and yes, it is more luck than anything. but still.... |

guys, you all know how it looks like when price on a chart is topping. how about this one: |
