How many coins did you cash out and how much USD you made?

Do not invest, save these 15 BTC for the next 10 years. Unless you know what you are doing just dont invest...

Satoshi would have been OK with Bitcoin running as an anarcho capitalist outside-the-system alternative.

OP might be on point. We'll not see huge gains for a long time. The guys that went rich overnight are living the dream. We'll have to wait until plebs catch up with Bitcoin as they need to get bitchslapped for a long while by banking and politicians until they find a real use for it.

I agree with your view. We are headed towards a year of downtrend while whales silently stack up and dumbasses sell their cheap coins, only to find out that after some months Bitcoin proves historical resilence power and the price goes to 4 figures causing massive butthurt into naysayers, as they join the boat missers crew, again.

This is the basic premise that makes Bitcoin objectively superior to every other money accountant methods ever combined that naysayers tend to not fully grasp.

I was hyped, then I saw all these posts saying it may be a scam. If anyone confirms please let us know.

Thats why Maidsafe is a better project than Ethereum, because it doesnt depend on a blockchain.

Lol the dollar will still be #1 in 2 years. Bitcoin will be huge by then tho. Andreas wouldn't risk his reputation with a random prediction.

Who the hell is that guy? not sure if trolling..

Cant find of a better marketing strategy to atract average joes into something tho.

It's great, it doesn't go deep into bitcoin but it's not needed since it's nicely thought for the average joe.

He posted recently (like months ago) when the Dorian Nakamoto incident happened.

There will be a time when science can make gold, but science can't make bitcoins

We'll be on the low 200's to mid 200's until summer is my guess.

Greece is such a beautiful place. It's such a shame that it has been oblitared due back economical policies and corruption.

This is clear FUD from the time OP claims mining Bitcoin is an ilegal activity.

Everything that involves girls and a non mainstream subject in video format screams Fiverr these days.

Actually Bill Gates could buy the remaining entire supply of bitcoin for life and control the price..
