Yep lurking is my jam,  and replying to comments way too late because I'm not paying attention is my game. This thread moves too fast for my old timey bones.

All those trolls are in my ignore list to this day, with kwukduck at the top. Back then I used to think these people were getting paid to troll. And now at this point I'm somewhat convinced these russian/chinese troll farms that are used to sway social media got their start in the Bitcoin community. Sort of a proving ground that sowing discord can have real world effects.

"Ok newbie welcome to trollcorp, now go cut your teeth on those new fangled Bitcoiners and all their joy and exuberance".

Its actually a credit to all of you who kept this thread going and active that you have turned it into what it is today, where the negative troll effect is effectively zero.

I think i can see his bitcoins flying out about 3 seconds in.

Here's mine if you guys want a rare lurker card.

Oh no. Has KARHU RETURNED?

There is no magic formula. He might not be scamming but his snakeoil ain't gonna make anyone but him richer.

I do know the secret though to untold wealth:

Buy and HODL! Works everytime.

Nobody here is required to challenge your worldview there buddy.

"If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry"

This guy walks into the room everyday drops his pants and sprays verbal diarrhea out of his ass like a rotating sprinkler. Everyday, unprompted, no one appreciates it, and yet he persists. Sure he may juggle flaming chainsaws every now and then while he does it. But we still are left covered in diarrhea.

Him and his like are an easy ignore in my book.

I hope you're right but their FAQ says:


So what does receive mean in that sentence? Because I technically could say I have Bitcoin Gold, though I've never downloaded their wallet, nor imported my private keys into it. But I had Bitcoins in actual Bitcoin addresses at the time of the Gold fork. When do/did I "receive" the Bitcoin Gold? Do I already have them? Not until I sell them like you interpret? Do I have to backfile my 2017 taxes if I sell the fork now as income then, plus pay the capital gains? Can I argue at the time of the fork the chain had no value and thus there was no actual income?

It's all so stupid.

Looks like they want to treat the hardforks and airdrops now as taxable income events. Hopefully someone can explain how that isn't the case. All I need is to worry about now is keeping track of the 50 shitcoin hardforks and airdrops that get created everyday. That makes no sense so I assume I am wrong somehow.

I got hot snakes and bubble gut.

My friend Gary McKenize totally thinks its will be pretty high by the end of the year, and he has a dirt-bike, so yeah he's pretty cool.

So my prediction is $17,450 (which would be cool like a dirt-bike).

Just live a good honest clean life, that should be merit enough my man. Just like a bitcoin wallet, you can make as many accounts as you want (as you already know).

Not every thread about Bitcoin has to be negative or "realistic". Sometimes the people just want to have fun and be positive in the one place on the internet not overrun by trolls.

Its okay to love the sat, stack the sat, the sat encourages it, rewards it.

buy or die.

Thanks for the warning. I'll retreat to my HODL bunker.

In fact that's where I am now.

Its times like these that put hair on your chest boys. Hopium, delusional, whatever.

Some people are always convinced the end Bitcoin is just around the corner. That there is nothing we can do but accept it. That believing the opposite is ripe for ridicule, that you are some sort of flake.

Some times the people are so certain, and the environment is so convincing, that you can't but help get swept up and carried away, questioning everything you believed.

But these are the times you will be glad you held firm, glad you held to your convictions that Bitcoin can and will survive this momentary test of wills. Like it has multiple times over that last decade, this too shall pass, and that big green shot to a brighter day will be that much sweeter, that much more rewarding.

We've been on this journey together for years now, do want you must to survive, but know this is still just the beginning of amazing times.

It didn't go below. Totally unacceptable.

Looks like you are about to flick her in the butt.

Bitcoin needs to be flicked in the butt right about now, enough with this elevator down stuff. Clear the longs and pump it. Buy the dip. Flick the butt.
