I live on a shit tier country with no chances of ever getting a job, half blind, no contacts, no fucking welfare and my pet is dying to boot and i cant pay the surgery. Not a single btc was seen that day. Get on my level.
People with a lot of Bitcoin are the same as people with a lot of dollars, it changes nothing.

Monero because it has a place to exist.

When looking at XMR emission curve I thought that the advantage of mining XMR belongs to early miners.

as a matter of fact you are wrong.

The devs chose a smoothly varying, egalitarian block reward with a highly logarithmic emission curve.

What that means is there will be a huge opportunity for everyone to get a fair share of xmr before it starts to go up in value as a result of the emission rate decreasing.

The fact that what you are saying is indeed the complete opposite of the truth, and the fact that anyone who knows anything about xmr knows the truth, tells me you are most likely a paid troll from bcn =)

Funny how bcn devs even with their 80% premine are not even resourceful enough to get more competent sockpuppet trolls with more than ~20-30 acivity score haha

It doesn't really matter how perfect the curve emission is, in any coin the guy with the most hashing power gets most of the coins, nowadays I can only get like 0.1 a day lol.

I am sure everybody has heard the essential arguments by now;

Not true. It is not about calling your home beautiful. It is calling the other guy's home ugly.

You will see the same folks bashing other coins. It is a disease in altcoin world that can't be cured. Not sure how you got sucked into altcoins  Smiley


Because the only reason to use Bitcoin is to avoid legal taxes and other legal shit, therefore might as well use something anonymous aka Monero.

Why are you scared of automation? In the future money (including Bitcoin) will have no value and the few jobs that need humans will be done by voluntarism. Think about it, if now, in a society based on the scam, the greed and being exploited, there are a lot of people volunteering, in an advanced society where you really contribute directly to said society (unlike the current 99% of garbage jobs) you would be seen as an hero, instead of seeing as heros idiots that inherit a lot of money or win the lottery.

This is all that people care about Bitcoin, being the new "wealthy elite" guaranteeing shit nothing changes beyond the 1% of early investors lives.

Yes and I explained that he is not the typical Bitcoin investor, mr. giveBTCpls who doesn't like Bitcoin because he doesn't have any.

Prove it.

Bitcoin WAS the one in a lifetime get-rich-quick opportunity. I readed about it back in about 2009, I saw it linked to criminal activity so forgot about it. I saw it again years later when the bubble exploded, too fucking late johnny boy. Fuck my luck. It's specially frustrating since I readed about it in fucking 2009. Thanks to it im suicidal since that day. I could have retired my entire fucking family and myself, but no! of course, I had to have bad fucking luck. Now im stuck in this shit hole for life, slaving away for minimum wage and that's if I ever find a job. God fucking sakes. Bitcoin solves shit nothing for the 99.99% of people. What changed pre-post Bitcoin for 99.99% of people? That's right, bout fucking nothing. If I had to point a change, in any case it made me suicidal as fuck. Whenever I talk to someone about Bitcoin, they just don't see the appeal, they think it's too late to invest, to make any life-changing money, at least not without having a shit ton of money required to buy a good amount of BTC by now. Exactly, BTC only changed lives for these that:

1) Were lucky as fuck enough to invest/mine in the early days.
2) Already had a decent amount of money

You've been suicidal since 2009 because you didn't get in early? Are you suicidal because you didn't win the lottery either? My goodness, stop being overly dramatic about it. You read about it in 2009, you had ever opportunity to get in, but you made a conscious decision to not get any. How is that something to bitch about? You did not support it back then, and did absolutely nothing to help the technology grow. What makes you think you deserve any of the high profits of early adopters? It's always funny to see people use their Hindsight Crystal Ball for investing.

If you want a chance to get lucky like early adopters of btc, there are hundreds of altcoins you can gamble with. Go buy some for dirt cheap right now and hold for several years. You too, can become a millionaire.

Actually thats all he did since Nov 2013 (joined date). He came in here hoping to have some "luck" with alt-coins. I guess that failed miserably... His idea of "financial freedom" is retiring and never need to "work", that he should be rich. So hes been complaining that btc does not give him that. He never see btc as "money" just a get-rich-quick scheme. A perfect example i would say.

I still dont think hes worth living tho. This planet is already too crowded with idiots.

Reality check: No one gives a fuck about Bitcoin beyond investing and hoping it grows in value to cash out. Guess who's the idiot.
935  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is unfair to the non tech-savvy on: July 14, 2014, 11:44:41 AM
More than unfair what's being discussed is it was just pure fucking luck. Most people that got rich forgot about their wallets and got the coins for mundane shit, such as buying drugs in SilkRoad or mining some for shits and giggles, not because they knew the price would explode.

If someone has managed to hold a large chunk of coins from 2010-11 until today, it has nothing to do with luck.

I understand that it's easier for you to pretend that it does though.


If someone managed to hold a large chunk of coins from 2010-11 until today, it has to do 100% with luck, aka forgeting about it and then finding out you are rich thanks to mainstream news.

His 5,000 bitcoins were suddenly worth around £430,000.

After spending a full day trying to remember his password, Mr Koch cashed in £116,000 by selling a fifth of his newly-acquired fortune.

This is the typical guy that got rich off Bitcoin. At least this guy was somewhat involved in crypto as an engineer, but the rest where just random people wanting to buy ilegal shit on SilkRoad and mining them then forgeting about them. Get real.

No, since 2012 because I forgot about Bitcoin as it was linked constantly to drugs and paedofilia so I ignored the whole thing, I dont want to be involved in that shit I thought.
Yes most people that got rich was due luck. Why do I do not deserve said luck, specifically?
Also no, no other coin will deliver the ridiculous results Bitcoin gave. And these that do deliver decent gains like DRK, require that you are involved within the obligatory instamine scam (aka right moment right time aka luck as always).
937  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is unfair to the non tech-savvy on: July 13, 2014, 05:52:26 PM
Investment is never fair. Two people can buy the same investment at the same time and one could loose and the other could profit. It takes knowledge, instincts and strategy to profit.

I have miss the boat too. I think we will never see a 1000 fold rise in bitcoin prices again, but most don't give up and complaint about not being a early adopter. We may experience a smaller gain, bitcoin is still a good investment.

And most importantly it takes luck.

And we have a winner. Bitcoin is the future.

Prove it by sending 1 BTC to my address.

Question: What financial freedom do I get out off Bitcoin if im poor as fuck and live in a country with high unemployment?

It actually has the potential to enable people in developing countries. There's a huge percentage of people who are unbanked or live with rapidly inflating currencies who can now have a form of secure banking with bitcoin. There are companies developing apps that will allow people to send and receive bitcoin on "dumb phones."

That's irrelevant if you are broke.
940  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is unfair to the non tech-savvy on: July 13, 2014, 05:41:15 PM
. It's unfair to people NOW because the only possible way to get any is from signature campaigns and such.


Bitcoin is a form of money.

Are you saying it's unfair that people have to actually earn their money by providing some kind of value?
Or, are you saying early adopters shouldn't have been rewarded for their risk in putting their time and energy into an unproven technology and helping Bitcoin get to where it is now?

What are you saying?

Sure we all wish we were adopters in 2009.  Hindsight is always 20x20.
But to say it's "unfair" makes you look like a whiner or a freeloader.

More than unfair what's being discussed is it was just pure fucking luck. Most people that got rich forgot about their wallets and got the coins for mundane shit, such as buying drugs in SilkRoad or mining some for shits and giggles, not because they knew the price would explode.
