Yeah, but then where does that leave you?  You'll be back to the same old fiat system that (I think) you were trying to get away from the get go.  You'll have to sit on the side lines, while everyone else will be waving bye to you through the windows of the rocket ship

lol... well, when that time comes (probably by next week or the week after) you can sell me yours. I'll be happy to pick up some spare coin you might throw to the bull riders. 

Just curious though, how many coins did you sell out?

Haha, yes this... If you think about what people did to get bitcoins back in like 2012, 2013, 2014  it would make your head spin and cringe.  People have lost so much money when the hype took them to $800+ ... but hopefully the people who bought in at that price point didn't dump all there bitcoins back out at say like $300 when it was coming back down hard.  I can't imagine what the guy feels like that sold his house... lol I would be so pissed.

Yeah, but I'm one of those people who like to gamble ... Plus I already have some like .5 bitcoins saved up from the last time I dumped them out, but now, for me, it's time to get back a heavy wallet (for me that's realistically like 2-3 BTC) lol.

5 years = $500? Psshh... please. Try $5,000 ... There have just been way too many good breakthroughs for bitcoin the last couple of months while the prices where dropping.  People and businesses have been innovating the way to invest and use bitcoins... there will be no major downturn in price ever again.

Well I mean, you can't really hold your political ideological beliefs in a point where it can change in an instant because of a bad president... your beliefs of what would make a good president, assuming he is a truthful and good person, is what should matter.  That's a pretty harsh turn around though, to go from republican, to basically supporting a socialist candidate.  I couldn't do that, but most people now and days are sick of the way our government has worked, so maybe in time I'll convert too... but for right now, I've held the same beliefs since I was a youngin'.

Well I mean, going along with what you said, with bitcoins it's an instant buy as well... with Gold it would take probably a week or so to have it shipped to your house and everything.  It just depends on what exchange sites you use, to get bitcoin at the price you want and instantly use it.  The good thing about bitcoin exchanges, is when you purchase bitcoins at a certain price, and don't have the benefit of getting bitcoins in instantly.. is that the price you paid for doesn't do anything.  So while this increase in price keeps going up, the price you paid for still stands... it's just annoying to wait for so long to get your bitcoins in though.

I mean, I lean more on the right side of the spectrum... just a little bit, but even I know that Bush's will/where be horrible presidents. Everything they did was just awful. Maybe "No child left behind" was OK in a sense that it helped schools here in the south... but still... MOST of everything he did was god awful.

Nice... I think you're making a smart move.  But for me, being someone who has just started a family with student loan debts and everything, I can't seem to make that investment.  I just bought only 1 bitcoin a couple days ago, and saving up to buy another... I just hope I can save enough money to keep steadily buying bitcoins without breaking the bank.

But I was thinking about this yesterday... So first thing Bernie does is make bitcoins the valid payment option for the US.  There are quite a lot of people who hold a lot of bitcoins right now in the US, so would the first course of action be that Bernie makes those people who have bitcoins distribute them out EVENLY amongst EVERY American citizen from the get go?  If so I would be one pissed off summamma bitch.

Hahaha, why so gloom QA?  This is the comeback rally beyond $1000K again, so be happy... just curious though, how much investments did you make?

Weren't there like 3 other "Zeitgeist" films and things people were trying to include?  I remember only really diving in deep on the 1st one, and then after that didn't really look to more in it, but since it's the weekend, I might as well try to look all that stuff again to pump me up about the bitcoin pump

Man, I haven't heard anyone mention the Zeitgeist in a long time.. lol, well it's funny, people sometimes loose concentration on a purpose.. rather they focus solely on the here and now, not about the distant future of a better tomorrow.

HAHAHA! Oh noooo!!!! That actually worked?? AP, you truly deserve it.. so I have no problem with this at all. But what you just did man... mind = blown.

Aww, shucks guys... you are making me blush... and I want to formally apologize to AP. If anyone deserved it more, it would be him for being so adamantly selling me on XMR pretty much everyday. I would just read some of his stuff here, and honestly that halloween AMA was the best thing I've seen in a while.. crypto or not.

So I'm sorry AP, I do like being "tweeted" though.. even though I don't participate on any social media besides here. (If you consider this social media)...


Naww, I couldn't.. I would feel bad because I took away such a significant spot in XMR history just because I refreshed the page at the right time... lol.

WOOOOO! HAPPY 10000 EVERYONE! Sorry I took this much desired spot from avid monero supporters... I didn't really expect to get it, but well... I just want to say that I'm really happy to have been introduced here.  Actually it was someone's signature that caught my eye one time, and now I frequent here more than any other thread.

Ew.. that just sounds like a messy cluster f**k of PoW coins doing, well, the work; while PoS coins just sit back and collect profit.  That doesn't sound like the right way to go at all, and I would assume people would get tired of that very quickly.

Haha, I just instantly got the cover to the song "Wild Wild West" that South Park did in it's old seasons for some reasons... Any who, I've been reading on the BBR speculation thread and they talk about "Supernet" being some thing that can potentially really help them out in the long run... I don't know if I've just been ignorant of this for some time, but what the hell is this, and why does it help out BBR and not XMR at the same time?

Yeah, that could be possible... but for some reason, I just see that people is stocking up right now on relatively cheap coins that they would hold until the halving.  I just see this as a buy it now, or regret it later kind of thing; not necessarily a bull trap.  I can see my self having to put ~$500 in 4-5 months to get a full bitcoin, and when I move I'll be thinking back to this and wishing "damn I wish I was here 4-5 months ago".

I just don't seem to understand though, are you going to somehow implement a way to make some kind of way for bitcoins to operate like Paypal, so that if the seller doesn't send you the goods, then you get your bitcoins back or something of the sort?  I just don't see how any of this can be possible, since there would be so many factors involved.
