That is sad but a reminder to us all. If, sorry when, we get to "fuck you" money status, make sure we don't fuck ourselves! Yeah... But I don't feel sorry for such people. They deserve everything they get. If you read "her" posts, she sounds like an arrogant, immature person, who just spent shitloads of money carelessly and without proper planning. In fact, this is "survival of the fittest" at work here. I know a friend of a friend who won $2M in the lottery. In 2 years he was broke and owing money to banks for a half-built luxury house he never managed to complete. I won't pity or help these people. They should get on their bikes and start helping themselves, just like the rest of us. |

Very nice. The highest price I've ever paid for BTC was $8200 (and the lowest was about $200). I don't think I've ever dropped below my investment capital. What am I saying... I've never dropped below 3x of my investment capital. Or maybe 5x. I can't even remember. Whatever happens, it's a win-win for most of us HoDLers. Actually, for all of us! I can't begin to imagine what that empty cell will contain in 4 years' time... HoDL.If any of us has a long enough timeline to be in bitcoin or intending to still be accumulating in bitcoin, then likely we will still end up buying BTC at various times and maybe even higher prices along the road, and surely I have a decent number of BTC purchases that go all the way up close to $19k, but sure, maybe some of those purchases could be considered NOT to count, if I had only been using proceeds from BTC sales at higher prices to make those purchases. And, gosh, we are coming upon 2.5 years since that latest high (ATH).... time flies when you are having fun, and those 4 year snapshots remain amazing in terms of continuing to go up.... even though it also seems reasonable that the multiple of how much BTC price is able to expand is likely to not be as much as the previous 4 years. The multiple in 2016 was 51x, but the multiple in this year was only about 12.5x......... So, getting another 10x for the price at the time of the next halvening might be difficult, even though surely I would not rule out something in the ballpark of 5x-8x.. I know, I might be considered a party poop.... but still will be curious to see where we are at for that next box. You know, right after I posted the message you're quoting, I did exactly the calculation you did, but didn't update the post. I'm glad another WO had a similar thought. If the analogy remains constant, we'll end up with around 12.5 * 12.5 / 51 * <current price> = $26000. Not a large amount for 2024. It's still a decent value, but it won't give me "fcuk you" rich status. I'd like to think that the current value of $8.5k is somewhat suppressed by the long bear market, and is more of an outlier, so, in that sense, there is some degree of daydreaming/hoping for $50k, or even $100k at the time of the 2024 Halving, and this gives us (me) something to look forward to. Even at $26k, it's still by far the best investment I've ever made, so, my statement of a win-win for all is probably true, except perhaps for our fellow, fallen WO, mindrust, who, I'm sorry to say, will probably never be able to buy back without a loss, something that should teach us all that the SELL button is a button that should rarely be pressed, and only for very good reason, and never when we are too emotional. Phew, that was a long sentence, sorry, I just got out of bed to check something (not the price, though I did check it), and I'm kind of half asleep right now...which is probably rather obvious from the way I say/type things... Good night, Jay, and all.......... |

The best is yet (but soon) to come!

Yeah what other halvening sites are there? I need one to watch. I remember last halvening one site had fireworks go off, that was fun. Yeah, me too... Found this: https://coinmarketcap.com/halving/bitcoin/Not very nice, but at least it has a live counter. |

 At my girlfriends place... Helping out with some cooking. Look what the dude found. A future sneak peak. Big green tasty cucumber. Bullish sign it is!!! Bullish sign it is! Long and green and fucking mean, Wiping weak hands clean! |

It's so sad to see that guy still has followers who actually believe what he says... Flat earth, anyone? |

Wow it is going nuts. Good news is, my acquisition cost is now near zero. Bad news is I own only a fraction of what I had before. When the price is nearing 10k I guess good news isn't actually good. Send this to 100k and I can get myself a tesla.  To the moon! I am not sad for selling actually. I am sad for buying too much and becoming overinvested. Hopefully a mistake that I won't repeat again. We are still the early adopters right? Right?  Sorry, but there is no way I can accept that you are not sad for selling... |

Potential bart pattern playing out  Pumps, dumps, barts... Just wait a few years, and they won't even register on your screen, compared to the stratospheric value that Bitcoin will have reached by then. Just like your chart above [img width=1]. Just Zoom Out!TM |

@Raja_MBZ: The scammer played it smart, by agreeing to receive the quarter ($250) installments, in order to gain your trust, and he did... I would probably do the same as you, being influenced by the eBay culture, where I've bought hundreds of things and always paid upfront in full ($500+ in some cases) without any problems.
Your story serves as a lesson to all of us, to never trust anyone we don't really know, especially when it comes to Bitcoin. "Don't trust, verify!" is the motto. Bitcoin's strength of irreversibility can cut both ways, like a double-edged sword. Got to treat it as such.

I am just gonna leave this here for those who know what's what.  Wow, cAPSLOCK, your post has just fired some old memory neurons in my brain... Dungeon Master! I've spent countless hours on this game. High school, with a classmate and friend. On an Amiga 500. We were even making maps on paper for each level. We're talking hours of non-stop playing, we didn't eat or sleep until we were completely exhausted... I remember we used to eat those damned plant things in your screenshot, which upped our stamina/power/abilities. After we finished eating them, we went outside the room and slept (in-game) for some time and these things kept regenerating, so we could eat some more and gain more abilities. It was a way to raise your level. Also, the small squares with the symbols on top-right were for casting spells. Those graphics were breathtaking at the time, a truly immersive experience (IIRC, the Amiga had better graphics than your screenshot -- this is probably from a PC or other computer). Good times... |

I’m sorry .... I was one short to hero your ass
It's nice to see that the constant hats on the thread go up in rank.
Congrats! AlcoHoDL
When I noticed he turned into a hero member, I instantly started him off on his lonnnng rooooad to the next one with giving him my last smerit. Congrats to you AlcoH0DL!  What can I say guys... I'm humbled and thankful to all WO members, for the good vibes, the witty discussions, educating me about Bitcoin, the HoDLing culture which has now become my permanent strategy and motto, learning about some weird stuff I dare not speak about, and, of course, for proudly wearing an xhomerx10 original. You're part of my life now, and always will be, no matter if we moon or doom.  |
