I wonder what is the estimated probability for a 100K party within 5 years from today (in regulars opinion).
IMHO, 10%. Granted, going into 2018 I thought that it is close to 80-90%.
IMO $100k per coin will be reached within 5 years. The road from $100k to $1m will be the same rollercoaster as going from $10k to $100k. We haven't seen anything yet, consider Bitcoins enormous potential with only 21m ~18m coins.....(mindblowing numbers) |

I noticed that i got a lot of merits to spend. Going to donate them more frequently. I barely read other subs, only straight to the WO. So that means spending them to all of you guys  I'll start this weekend giving all users on this page 1 merit, a little cheer up in this bear market. Edit: In a rush i accidentally donated V8 2 merrits. Lucky guy. |

The Dutch East India Company was the largest company in history. Also the first company trading stocks at the Amsterdam stock exchange. The company was as large as 20 of our largest companies combined, it was as large as the GDP of Germany and Japan together. Amazing achievement from this tiny country.  I am sorry, but it makes no sense. Dutch east india company profits were: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_East_India_Company"the long-term average annual profit in the VOC's 163070 'Golden Age' was 2.1 million guilders, of which just under half was distributed as dividends and the remainder reinvested. The long-term average annual profit in the 'Expansion Age' (16801730) was 2.0 million guilders, of which three-quarters was distributed as dividend and one-quarter reinvested. In the earlier period, profits averaged 18 percent of total revenues; in the latter period, 10 percent. The annual return of invested capital in the earlier period stood at approximately 6 percent; in the latter period, 3.4 percent." According to the following 1 guilder was either about $12-15 or $100 (or, maybe, fluctuated between these two with $12-15 being more reliable (later) number. https://lensonleeuwenhoek.net/content/what-was-guilder-worthTherefore, 2.1 mil guilders yearly profit is just $32-210 mil in CURRENT buying power. NO way $32-210 mil in profit can get you ANYTHING close to trillions that you quoted, unless something is wrong with value calculation. Besides, the population of earth was just 500mil back than. Not enough people to get to the valuation that high. TL;DR this valuation is a MYTH. I appreciate your additional information provided but this is no MYTH. You can clearly see at the images i posted about the companys total value. It says nothing about how much profits they'd made. Amazon reached in 2018 a $1 trillion valuation. Apple market capitalization past $1 trillion.  |

I haven't been active here much, but I'm still alive. I will try to at least delete the worst shitposting. Reporting particular posts to me via PM is helpful.
We had a long holiday weekend here in the states, and then my wife delivered our first baby right after. Shit's been crazy - attending to work, baby, wife, and sleeping when I get "free time".
Congratulations! |

When the price was $200-$400 people predicting double digits.
Double digits never came.
Same goes for the $1500 prophecy.

My experience purchasing a Casa node was nothing but spectacular. The set up instructions only had a few steps, like an Apple product. IP configuration was automatic, and the sync took less than 10hrs over night. While Im worried the nodes specs might be underpowered to last several years and the build quality was a bit underwhelming, it is a great option for users who want an easy way to run a node and get onboarded with the LN. Other, lower-priced options are also entering the market and will offer competitive choices for consumers. https://medium.com/@hasufly/casa-node-91aab9c1c2ef?sk=1cc36c0d8448609f55ab2f64b1ea42e3 |

A small distraction (OT) to btc pricing minutiae: https://www.technologyreview.com/s/612458/exclusive-chinese-scientists-are-creating-crispr-babies/A daring effort is under way to create the first children whose DNA has been tailored using gene editing. This would open a Pandora's box, most definitely. All talk about current inequality is just about numbers that could be attained one way or another. Not so simple if you are essentially MADE genetically different. For maximum publicity they started with the gene that is accessory to HIV (CCR5). No active CCR5 present, no HIV. Will it stop there? Of course, not. Nice...now we can all disign our own babies ore create an entire new master race. This method is untested and banned in many countries even the Chinese goverment is not happy about this ''breakthrough''. Playing with human DNA is dangerous, scientists already tested it on mices to slowing down the aging gen but indeed the mices lived 2x longer resulted in horrific side affects. The babies will be resistant to HIV, smallpox, and cholera (if it works) but at a cost off.... |

Great opportunity to increase your (wealth) privacy during this bear market.
At work, going out with friends ore during X-Mass dinner, people laughing at you -Bitcoin crashed hard- tears rolling over their cheeks.
Just say you sold your coin, it was not that much because it was an experiment anyway.
- raise your glass - ''Atleast i can go on free vacation next summer, thx Bitcoin''
Pull up your best poker face. Let them think you aint in the game anymore.
Keep a low profile. The next bull run will be epic.
You have a good point about Opsec, yet your strategy seems much easier said than done. It may be a lot easier to say that you cut your holdings in half or even by 3/4 than to say that you got out of the game completely. Personally, I enjoy the topic of bitcoin so much that I want to be considered to be in it, but I have never really wanted anyone except a select few to have much information about my specifics. However, sometimes, during moments of exuberance, any of us might have had weaknesses to disclose a few more details than we should have, and in that regard, Paashaas, it could be good to run a bit of a disinformation campaign, as you suggested. Personally, I am very unlikely to act as such a phoney (or a good OPsec) that I am going to suggest that I am a no coiner, unless I am traveling or something in the company of strangers - otherwise, I feel that my friends and acquaintances are safe enough to understand that I have "some" coins, even though they likely are not going to know with any degree of certainty about my specific holdings and even I don't feel bad allowing them to conclude that I don't have very many coins. Stay save and protect yourself. Do not expose your bag to the public. (showing your Bitcoin bling-bling on Facebook). Post your Lambo in the WO not Facebook. |
