bots and manipulation.

This peon has a paid for truck and motorcycle and all I had to do was buy and hold for a year. This peon still has 57% on the coins I started with at $10/coin. This peon has a net worth higher than his doctor mother all because I didn't lose my nerve when the FUD rained down. This peon took the hits, rode out the panics and now I'm s'posed to feel sorry for you for not having the stones to keep your cool? Ok. my bad.

Yep, Bitcoin has created lots of lucky peons that are able to give up their jobs flipping burgers.

So if I succeed, it's luck but if you succeed, it's cuz you deserved it? Gotcha. Class act. This ain't this silver market, Cowboy. Granted, like silver and gold, bitcoin is recognizable, fungible, portable, divisible and scarce, but more so. Price discovery is what we do. If it was easy, those retards on Wall Street would be doing it. Momentum-chasing lemmings. Good for a laugh.

Insulting every single person you can get your hands on isn't going to deliver the price drop you want. Just saying.

A reasonable amount of manners cost even less than cheap BTC.

I never said that I deserved a penny of what I have gained in Bitcoin. To be honest, sometimes I have felt like a thief. Difference between you and I, is that you jumped in at a time when any fool with $100 in his back hipper could have made a fortune. I have came in with a speculative mindset at practically the most volatile phase in Bitcoins history. Since I started investing in Bitcoin, I have seen much more downside than up occur in market and I cant afford to be an idiot cos I have real hard earned capital at stake and I have no intention of letting any of it land up in some market manipulating bot-meister sonovabitch's bank account.

Had I listened to nearly any of the advice (notable exceptions notwithstanding) I have been given here, I would be in the fkn poor house by now.

TBH you entered the market when litecoins was at the same point bitcoins was at a couple years back. If you placed 1k into ltc at $2-$3 you probably would have made much more than whatever you placed into bitcoins.

You think November/December was the most volatile time? That's empirically false. It's actually getting much less volatile. Downright boring, even. If you made money, you even helped make it so. Thanks! That'll mean more profits for me in the long run.

Had a small punt on Litecoins..thought about doing when Litecoins were 'too expensive' at $4 USD, finally bought in at $13, sold at $41...

....fkn glad I sold, although I kept a few back...

...bought some Quarks as well cos I like Bill Still, an honest guy, although a complete muppet when it comes to backing a winner.

Oh, so you think this is over then do you?

all stabilisation and trending from here is it?

I dunno and it doesn't matter. I profit from stability. I profit from volatility. The incentives are in place for volatility to decrease over time and if economics teaches us anything, it's that incentives work if they are strong enough.
