Why shouldn't I? I try to avoid overquotes in general. No big deal, this is a bit off topic.

If it drops to 1k, I'll sell my soul to the devil to buy bitcoin. I'll wait a few years, buy hell and kick the devil out of there.

But that's too imaginary. Do you really think that in a $479,028,551,331 market cap market literally nobody is going to sell?
   

It's not just about money. If supply is very reduced because few people are willing to sell and also because of the deflationary nature of bitcoin, less money is needed to make the price go up.

I think the same but just for the short-term. The faster we go up, the bigger the dip later on but if we are talking about holding bitcoin forever, just selling at some specific points, we shouldn't worry much about the speed. Bitcoin will keep going up in the long-term.

Someone who gets scared by those swings shouldn't invest in bitcoin. I'd say there aren't many people like you describe, investing in bitcoin and then selling to buy food after a small 0.25% dip.

So, I take it that the merit system is useless there?

I never visit that section, not because of the spamming, just because I'm not interested in alts but it seems to me that having to gain some merits in order to be accepted into (bitcoin) signature campaigns supposes a barrier for spammers who either have to give up, or they have to make an effort in order to get merit.

This is good news for us, as it is another step in the normalization of bitcoin, and even more so for institutional investors, who are behind the recent rise in bitcoin prices and the recent new ATH. As Michael Saylor said, when the FOMO enters the institutional investors' minds, the price can go to the moon, and we haven't stopped seeing news lately that point in this direction.

Then there is another thing, the more standardized the use of bitcoin is among institutional investors, the more it will help adoption among the general public.

I was just thinking about that.

In recent pre-ATH times we saw two things:

1) Withdrawals of bitcoin from the exchanges.
2) Growing demand from institutional investors.

When people withdraw the bitcoin to their paper or hard wallet it is because they do not intend to trade with it, but to hold, and this reduces the offer. On the other hand, institutional investors don't buy 1 bitcoin or 0.1, they buy large amounts, making demand very high.

If this trend continues in the future, we may see prices that we now consider crazy, and even more so if we consider that institutional investors do not buy bitcoin to trade as individuals do.

If he doesn't like them, he doesn't pay me for the posts and if he thinks someone is spamming, he kicks them out of the campaign, as it has already happened.


And I locked the thread after hilarious advice but I unlocked it because this is not a matter of quality or at least not just a matter of quality.
 

I don't mind the moderator deleting my posts. I mind the pussy-moron constantly looking at my history to see if he can report something.

However, why does the moderator delete my post when I give thanks to the campaign owner and doesn't delete the other similar posts in that thread and other campaign threads? Well, one reason for sure is because there isn't a moron reporting those posts.

Btw, I gave two people negative trust. I hope the moron is not one of them. I'd like to think that moderators would take that into account when dealing with reports.


WTF? What happened?


LOL

Hey, thank you for your constructive comment but I'm going to quote what I've just wrote:


So the fucking moron keeps looking at my post history and keeps reporting my messages because it seems that it's a problem for this forum that,among the 400 posts I've written, there are 4 supposedly low-quality ones.

This is not a matter of me being a low-quality poster. It is a matter of moron constantly looking at my post history to see if he finds low-quality posts that should be deleted.

Him reporting my posts and a moderator deleting them it's just a waste of time.

Hey, you! Yes, you! I know you are reading me: you are a moron and a coward.

Come to this thread and explain why you keep reporting my posts, moron, if you have the balls.

I just got a message deleted, very similar to these two, and quite normal in these signature campaign threads, because a fucking moron keeps reporting my messages and a moderator keeps deleting them.

So, thank you Lightlord for the payment!

First of all, I have to say that I have been doubting where to open this post, whether in this section or in the speculation section. Feel free to report it to be moved or just tell me if you think it will be better placed in another section.

I've been thinking that after the Ledger fuck-up they must have seen their sales go down a lot. It's a question of reputation. Whoever buys a hardware wallet, what they want is privacy and security. Losing "approximately 272,000 detailed information such as postal address, last name, first name and telephone number"  has made many people not to trust Ledger any more. It's not just that some mobsters may come to visit you at home, it's also that that information is available to your government as well.

So, I'm wondering how deep this will affect Ledger's business, if they will end up bankrupt or not. For sure they are going to lose a lot of sales.

I am undecided. As far as I'm concerned, let them go to hell. On the other hand I think the Ledger-Trezor competition is good but if Ledger goes bankrupt another company may take its place.

What do you think about it?

You get used to the good stuff too soon. After the inicial excitement, I now find it pretty boring being sideways for a while at $22-24k levels.

I see myself yawning in the future because we are sideways at around $100k.

Everything indicates that this will be the case, although in the world of investments nothing is certain. Following what happened after the previous halvings, it is easy that next year it will continue to rise and test the 100k or more. Although past cycles do not have to be repeated.

Most of the analyses I see of the bitcoin go in this direction.

What I am clear about is that in the long term, bitcoin will continue to rise due to the increase in demand, its deflationary nature and the massive printing of fiat money.

I probably asked them not to. Anyway, I just sent them a ticket through support asking them to remove my email address and any data they have on my from their database.

Does anyone know if they are obliged by law? In some countries there is such a law whereby if I ask private company to remove any data they have on me, they have to remove it.

I know that the leak has happened already but I'm quite pissed of with them. I think ledger live is ****. You can't sign messages with it, for example.

If there are news about ledger that concern me I will know through the forum or other sources.

I think I'm going to call Lightlord the Mystery Man, because we know we're going to get paid, but we don't know when.

I was thinking that we would get paid this week. Does he owe us six weeks already? I've lost count.

But I wouldn't be surprised if we don't get paid this week and he doesn't say anything, given what I've seen.

Yeah, you are both probably right.

However, I'll leave this post open just in case more posts keep getting deleted and also to see if a moderator wants to add something.

Well, I'm beginning to think that someone is picking on me.

I remember a post similar to this one, opened by a member who participated in the same campaign as me, bitvest.io, and who complained that many of his posts had been deleted. He got angry and eventually left the campaign.

I just found two more deleted messages.

I really don't understand why this one was deleted:


I was replying to a post that hasn't got deleted.

And then this one. I could understand up to a point that someone has seen it as low-value because it is a one-liner. But not all one-liners are crap and I've sometimes been merited for very short posts. I think it was relevant because we were talking about a guy who is not in the campaign and was spreading FUD:



I wasn't paid for that post and I don't care. I sometimes write what I think and that's it.

I think some people are taking a too tough line when reporting and also when deleting posts. I already said that in similar posts like this one created by other forum members.

I could see the data and I'm happy that my personal details are not in the documents leaked. Maybe because I bought the Ledger a few years back? My email is there but I already knew that. Also, I don't hold a lot of bitcoin but I would feel uneasy if I knew my full name and address had been leaked.
