my latest tactic for idiots who try to tell me what bitcoin is or isn't or simply people I don't really like ... I try to talk them into buying altcoins, especially ether and ripples tokens, give it the good old pump.
them: what do you think is going on with bitcoin, is it going up?
me: ah, i don't know it's a volatile market anything can happen.
them: should I buy some now or I've missed the boat and have you heard about ether/ripple/litecoin/eos?
me(triggered): yeah you should definitely buy lots of ether, it's the best thing out, once in a lifetime opportunity! (unsaid :to lose all your life savings) ...
... so sick of people asking about crypto and then talking about "blockchain" or shitcoins. Shitcoin scams in our time is a bigger net loser than Mt. Gox, whose customers will actually be made whole in fiat.
Despite my protests and my strong encouragement to buy bitcoin instead, my best friend bought a bunch of ETH at $300 last summer. Bitcoin was around $3,000 at that time.
You literally cannot talk any sense into some people. They're determined to throw their money away.
You don't wanna know how many times i told my co-worker/friends that they can buy Bitcoin for $20-$50-$100-$1000 etc but they refuse to believe that. They don't understand 100m satoshi's in one full Bitcoin but they do know 100 cent in a dollar.
Geuss what they are buying? Bytecoin, Ripple ore half ETH's because it is cheaper...and now they're pissed. They think they missed the Bitcoin train. Pure market emotion, they want to buy shitcoin at the top but refuse to buy Bitcoin at low prices.
I can't wait how they react when Bitcoin hits new highs ore when i stop working and living my dream.
