If you are reading this right now and you do not buy bitcoins at this price, you cannot ever complain about early adopters again.

At this price, anyone can be an early adopter right now.

trying to pump the price are we?

I still have a day or two before my deposit gets on the exchange, and my paycheck is converted to bitcoins on Friday. I hope this low price sticks around for a few days.


But if anyone posts crap about early adopters and they knew about Bitcoin before January 14, 2015...then they have nothing to complain about. They had their chance.

Average Joe dumping thread needs to add:
13) Make sure to advertise the alt you really want to succeed when telling everyone you sold all of your bitcoins.
5744  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Transaction time is too slow!!! on: January 13, 2015, 11:19:51 PM
I deposited my money at the ATM on Saturday, my funds were finally available today, started my SEPA transaction today...it will be 2-3 days before my funds reach the exchange where I can buy at such low prices!  Argh!!! 

Who would invest in such a lame system with such slow transaction times?
5745  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: January 13, 2015, 11:17:22 PM
Master Plan

1) Build something revolutionary
2) Give people the chance to buy and sell this invention
3) Watch people that have no interest in my invention at all, spend their entire day wasting time on a forum
4) Eat popcorn all day


SATOSHI IS A GENIUS LOL

Theymos is Satoshi.

All of the ad revenue he gets from the trolls was his plan all along.
5746  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin - Currency? Commodity? on: January 13, 2015, 11:04:11 PM
Those that see it as a commodity are worried about the price.

Those that use it on a daily basis as a currency do not worry so much about price.

Since my last paycheck the price has gone down almosts $100. But in 3 days, I get paid again and get bitcoins for $100 less.
I see it as a commodity and am not worried about the price but I do the same thing with metals, I put them away for long term holding. I see the value of bitcoin going a lot higher than silver going in 20 years.

I bought 50 oz of gold when it was $400/oz.

I was shaken a bit by different news sources about the price and ended up selling at $425. I wish I had just put it away too Tongue

I put away most of my bitcoins for long term but I still use it as a currency. It is very useful and easy.

Wish I didn't have to wait for these SEPA transaction times of several days to get my money to the exchange.
5749  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: CEX.io Halts Cloud Mining Service Due to Low Bitcoin Price on: January 13, 2015, 10:23:18 PM
Cloud mining....your bitcoins are in the cloud.

Just don't ask for them.

They're on the line.
5750  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin RIP, the day bitcoin died on: January 13, 2015, 10:19:33 PM
Such people should be permanently banned.

Why?
because they are talking nonsense and creating threads that encourage people to quit bitcoin

I thought this thread was very nice and creative.

I read somewhere that their is free speech on this forum.

Ya! Free speech! Congress shall make no law abridging the right of bitcointalk members to start troll threads!

And the right to bear arms too!

You can take my guns from my cold dead hands!!!

Time to have the bitcoin talk with grandma.

... She's prone to give money to strangers over the phone. ...

She's perfect bitcoin investor. Because safe.


Never did advice bitcoin to anyone in my family or friends. Because i care for them.

I talked my father out of spending 50K on bitcoins around 600.  He got the idea from some idiot neighbor pumping it hard on him and trying to convince him it was a small risk investment.  Apparently this neighbor spent about 100K when price was 800

I also told my HS friend to stay away when the price was around 800.

The first time I heard about bitcoins economics I knew it was all wrong

Thank you kind sir. Please, save us all from the scary limited supply electronic currency.

My brother warned me at $17 that the government would ban it.

Last week he finally asked me how to accept Bitcoin for his business.

It usually helps if you advertise the alt coin you invested in in your OP message.
5753  Economy / Speculation / Re: Well, I am all out again, for good this time on: January 13, 2015, 07:45:32 PM
so again, why exactly would I use bitcoin to buy anything legal, just one compelling reason, please.....

If you ever....ever...buy anything on Amazon, whether you like Bitcoin or not, getting 20-30% off on Amazon purchases through Purse is quite nice.
5754  Other / Politics & Society / Re: What do you believe is moral? on: January 13, 2015, 07:32:52 PM
I find it odd that the last question gets so many No votes after Yes votes for 9.
9) Would it be morally wrong for you and the majority group to designate someone to hire someone to steal from me as long as that designation was called a 'vote' and the theft was called a 'tax' or 'fine'.

10) Would it be morally wrong for the majority to elect someone with their votes to hire tax agents and police to go collect taxes from me?

I think when people see that question they recognize the current system and vote no on principle.

The long wording is very confusing "...majority group to designate someone to hire someone...".

A few cartoon pictures would make it more interesting.
5755  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The cost of bitcoin system is too high.it is not a cheap payment at all. on: January 13, 2015, 03:43:37 PM
First,I don't know where these coindesk's number come from,and,which part is counted.
Second,I think some number should not put together.
For example, glod mining and Bitcoin mining,It is different.
It's not fair to both glod and Bitcoin.

I included the link to the article that goes into detail on where they got the numbers. And those numbers are conservative.

if I need to buy a plane ticket using bitcoin, I can get the coins instantly on coinbase, and pay

more importantly why wouldn't I use my amex platinum to buy the ticket, which gives me points, protection in case the airline screws me, plus all sorts of baggage and flight delay protection?

The Platinum card, which costs $150 per year in fees. If you spend $8k per year you'll get a free plane ticket in 3 years. That only costs $450. And if you screw up (like the average household with over $2k in credit card balance) you are hit with 18% in fees.

I'm done with playing that game. Give me real money and no banks/credit cards.


The Amex Platinum is $450 a year. But you get a lot more than points. Well worth it in my opinion for the benefits. But you wont get an Amex platinum spending $8000 a year. I wasn't offered it until I consistently hit $10,000 a month in spending.

Strato

Your Amex Platinum must be different than mine then. I've had it for over almost 2 decades so maybe I was grandfathered in at a better rate. I still plan on dropping it though.
5757  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: ??? bitcoin trading on: January 13, 2015, 02:00:07 PM
Well how can I start bitcoin trading efficiently making it profitable ?
Any suggestions ?  Smiley

Instead of profit, try Bitcoin as a currency. It is really useful.
5758  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: January 13, 2015, 01:47:24 PM
yes your right im in profit of 3 btc and i keep getting more thought this was a joke but it amazing so easy Smiley

Worst newbie clone scam ever.
5759  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: January 13, 2015, 01:12:55 PM

Interesting. Pirate ended his Ponzi scheme and the price dropped from $12 to around $10.


Then it went up.


A lot.
