Sorry for stupid question maybe..

Is any similar topic to this one about altcoins and their news?
I like this very active topic format (something similar even with chat) but sometimes want to discuss alts also

I see Google are offering USB U2F keys: good. I also see Google are offering an account recovery form if you lose them: bad.

I think they are the ones that know you were right all along but want to get in and do it a little different than what you said so they can say "see I was right". Even though they don't have the facts there seems to be a inordinate amount of people on this earth that seem to think they are born with knowledge and discount research as fake news.

What does he mean, Ver ratted out his Dad when he was 16?

In addition, entrepreneurship played as large a role then as it does now. He started by selling candy bars and pocketing $50 per week. By his 16th birthday, he had saved enough money to purchase himself a white Ford Mustang. His parents largely disapproved of the purchase, and in retaliation, his father placed an ad in the local paper to sell the white Ford Mustang. When Ver called the police, his father was told that they would arrest him if he did not withdraw the ad. This sequence of events caused his parents to kick him out of his house.

my latest tactic for idiots who try to tell me what bitcoin is or isn't or simply people I don't really like ... I try to talk them into buying altcoins, especially ether and ripples tokens, give it the good old pump.

them: what do you think is going on with bitcoin, is it going up?

me: ah, i don't know it's a volatile market anything can happen.

them: should I buy some now or I've missed the boat and have you heard about ether/ripple/litecoin/eos?

me(triggered): yeah you should definitely buy lots of ether, it's the best thing out, once in a lifetime opportunity! (unsaid :to lose all your life savings) ...


... so sick of people asking about crypto and then talking about "blockchain" or shitcoins. Shitcoin scams in our time is a bigger net loser than Mt. Gox, whose customers will actually be made whole in fiat.

Yes, for this thread and any bitcoin thread, it is both possible and reasonable to lump all of them together as shit.  Something like this:





Yes, easy said, in part because it is off topic, have you heard of that?



Ok  get the fuck out of here, and post in an ethereum thread about your level of loves for ethereum.


Do whatever the fuck you want, and go talk about it somewhere else.



Diversification is overrated, especially if you are deciding to diversify into shit.




O.k.  Go have fun, and cash out all of your BTC and anything else that you have and place it on the All wonderful ETH...





I will tell you with a conclusion.   Go fuck off with your desire for shit coin discussions to some other thread(s).

I interpret the SEC statements as code for “we think the promoters are engaging in misleading and fraudulent advertising”.

It’s one more nail in the coffin of an ETF this year.

Me too tbh, I’ve lived a bit of a false life since last year when I cashed in all my free BCH.

HODLING bitcoin is boring as fuck, having all that money but not being able to spend any of it. Fucking cock tease.
It’ll all be worth it in a few years though.

Always so many numbers in charts for me its like 1 = hodl all the way to 12 = still hodl and what nbr 13 is gonna be on this chart  will still be hodl for me     
                                                       

Fuck this just capitulated on ETH and sold for BTC.

Well, if I remember correctly, this term became popular during the peaks from 2013 ($266 and $1242), Mt.Gox, Willy, the Bearwhale and stuff... If someone bought at the 2013 top, he/she/it 'made' ~ 400% as of today (in fiatmoney).

You might have bought at the recent $19666 top, not sure what you can expect in five years from now. However, if you bought the top, hodling might be an appropriate strategy. If you're a moderate gambler, cost averaging on the 'way down' could be your strategy. Want to feed the whales? Just sell. If you want your kids to laugh at you in five years, buy shitcoins...

well, as a quite newbie (10 months) in crypto, i have to admit that im losing faith right now.
I want to be a holder (yes thats how we write this right?) but what worries me is not the ups and downs itself, but the rediculous drops that happened 3 times now... This means that some people actually can control my money.... again... And i dont like it.
Who can garantee that not all bitcoin eventually evaporates?
I mine the shit out of my equipment, and all it does this year is lose value... i cant mine enough to even increase in fiat value. Thats hugely dissapointing...

Everyone has a opinion here in bitcointalk, even some experts out there. It ranges from 2k to 150k dec18. How to take anyting in between serious? I see pretty graphs, all made in a way someone thinks instead of based on facts or knowledge, calculations, etc. Whats the value of it? Zilch...
Take a look back to all those pretty graphs... I bet none came actually true...

crypto? I think ponzi more and more...


Proof me wrong, please....

Just spit-balling here....
What do people here think drives the price of BTC (either direction) the most?

I think we deserve a clarification. Seriously.

Can we opt out? Pretty please.

We need a trustless global BJ system
