daytrading their way through the days.

You mean picking Red or Black on a roulette board and then claiming what a good trader they are when they make a few hundred bucks?

...until they lose it and then post on here trying to sway the market to correct their amateur mistake.

Bitcoin is a peer to peer currency.

There is no such thing as manipulation as anyone can buy and sell at whatever price he wishes.


I want to live in your utopian dream.

So you try to manipulate people for to not selling while decrying the market being manipulated?

I would say 'good work' - but you should learn that people who could be manipulated in this silly way are irrelevant.

I'm not trying to manipulate anyone. I am stating an honest opinion.

The key word there being "honest".

Could I be wrong? Absolutely. But my money is where my mouth is. I actually believe what I am saying. Not just trying to profit off others fear/indecision. You will never catch me screaming, "BITCOIN IS GOING TO $0" just so I can spread fear to lower the price and rebuy coins that I wish I hadn't sold.

I don't just spout, "mission impossible, $3xx is good to go for a while." bullshit like a lot of people. My arguments make sense.

I come to this forum because I enjoy to write. (Among other forums non-Bitcoin related) People can read my posts and agree or disagree. My intent is to mislead no one.

Patience is the most important virtue in this game. And the ones chasing after bubbles are the first to lose.

They are?

So I shouldn't have bought those coins @ $120 during the $266 bubble?


That's easy for you to say as someone who is in profit. Wink

"Chasing" in trading or investing means lagging behind the market and buying once the hype already happened. It's easy to preach HODL when you're golden. However, for those who began buying in 2014, bitcoin has performed horribly. And it was after the November 2013 bubble that 2014 was supposed to be the "year of bitcoin." Such hype, wow. Just keep in mind that this has been the longest bear market in bitcoin history. Surely it's even possible that bitcoin could return to the $100s or double digits, too, is it not? After all, bulls have been calling the bottom for many months now. In that case, it would have been prudent to take some profit off the table from those $120 coins. Wink

I was "chasing", per your definition, for the majority of last year at my $120-$200 buys during the $266 bubble.

But I saw the forest, not just the trees.

I watched the price drop back to $60 during the Silk Road bust.

I continued to see the forest, not just the trees.

I bought some more at $450-$675.

..and guess what? I still see that forest, not just the trees.

Nothing wrong with selling at a loss and buying back lower, either. That's not even coming from the perspective of a trader necessarily. Any investor should have a stop loss. For many bitcoiners, it's just set at zero. Grin When was going down with the ship a good investment plan for other assets?

...except 90% of the time, you don't end up buying back lower.

Let's just hold hands and see how that goes for a while. 

Prude.

Holy shit.  I find myself agreeing super hard with a poster named, "penii plural 4 penis".

Didn't see that coming.

Does that mean we can be friends butt-buddies?

I don't know about you guys, but they aren't getting my coins for any price except 10X or more than what I paid for them.

Massive walls be damned.



I'm with you.

Except forget 10x...don't be shortsighted.

Try 30-40x.

Unlike MatTheCat and others like him, I don't hold Bitcoin to get rich overnight. I'm looking at this in terms of years.

The price is either going to be a LOT higher in 2 years, or Bitcoin is going to be 5 cents. It's that simple.

Most these crybabies are investing like $2k and start crying when the price drops 20% and they lose $400. Awww...I'm sorry your $2k investment hasn't made you a millionaire yet.. You wanna get some McDonalds icecream? Make you feel better? Awwwww..

If that $2k goes to $0, is it really that profound?

Now if that $2k goes to $80k in 5 years time...that's fucking profound.

My point is this: If you bought into Bitcoin thinking that it was going to be a straight line up, you are a delusional retard.

I would define boom as 5K.

Ya niggaz move that dope.
Ya niggaz move that dope.

Real dope dealaz fo' real.

Ok great.

I shall not be tricked by those nasty manipulators and will hold all my BTC as they grind the price of Bitcoin down over the coming months to low treble digits through their 'manipulations'

I shall show these bastards!

In 2 years, the level of regret you are going to experience is going to be far worse than any duress you suffered while watching the price drop a measly 15%-20%...

12  Economy / Speculation / Re: The price is being manipulated so hardcore right now... on: August 29, 2014, 02:43:17 AM
Isn't the price of anything always manipulated? The way of business right?

Indeed it is.

But I think it's quite acute at the moment.
13  Economy / Speculation / The price is being manipulated so hardcore right now... on: August 29, 2014, 02:36:26 AM
...and why?

Because larger investors want to fuck with you. They want to fuck with you and scare your weak ass into selling to them at a loss.

If you think Bitcoin is going to disappear, you deserve to lose money. Sell them your coins at a loss, you weak eunuchs.

The divide between rich and poor, at it's core, exists because of one fundamental fact: Manipulation.

Learn this fact and you're already halfway there.

Or don't...and keep making posts about how you're "DONE WITH BITCOIN THIS TIME GUYS!"

14  Economy / Speculation / Re: There's your wall staring you in the face... Still no one buys on: August 29, 2014, 02:30:22 AM
Bitcoin is in a downward trend, so this is to be expected.

Downward until you can rebuy where you sold, you mean?
15  Economy / Speculation / Re: The truth on: August 28, 2014, 10:47:07 PM
What if Satoshi and the first miners decide to start dumping? They must collectively have a massive amount of bitcoins.

Yeah that's a reasonable scenario  Roll Eyes

What if they get a bit strapped for cash?

You're assuming these coins haven't been lost.

High likelihood they have been.
