Lies Bagholders Tell Themselves.

[TrueCryptonaire]

A few years from now the "bagholders" as the OP has described them might be having the last laugh.

Bitcoin won't remain king forever and there's room in the world for dozens if not hundreds of successful alternatives to the original.

The problem with the altcoins is that usually the communities are way too small in relation to the marketcap of a certain coin and therefore they are not able to create a network effect.
In order to succeed a coin needs a community that is growing.
The growth comes from the bullish trend of a coin - the bull market attracts investors which makes the price rising even more which attracts new investors and so on.

Bitcoin has the strongest network effect but I doubt it will stay like this as the price do not have power to rise but it is declining month after month.

Big hue

With the USD, the fed just prints them and distributes them.  Its not really complicated.  Cryptocurrencies on the other hand are a different type of beast, and require some very knowledgeable people to maintain and innovate on novel cryptocurrency platforms

  My all time favourite is.

  "It's the DEV that i'm investing in,he's great".

[disamsal]

i have some serious information that a group of whales are looking at this coin 

[TibanneCat]

Claims of "famous" investors = MOOOON

[tokeweed]

"more time for people to accumulate."

[shanem]

Bagholders will tell you the price is cheap to accumulate, big holders are still holding the coin and once the dev release xxx, the price will skyrocket.
I have seen many of this in altcoins where prices have been pumped and dumped.

If I had a bag of 10 lbs of gold, is it bad to be a bagholder?

If gold were worthless, yes. It would be bad to be a bagholder.

You don't seem to understand what a bagholder is.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=bagholder

Just substitute "coin" for "stock" and you'll get the idea.

Are you saying there aren't precious metals bag holders?

Everyone holding gold or silver after the 2011 bubble is a bagholder IMO.

I think this is the correct term for bagholder from urbandictionary

bag holder (n)

In a swinger group it's the husband who holds while wife is merging with another group member...

wife says to husband " will U be my bag holder tonight? BIG black african wants me & he doesn't like his balls to drag on the sheets " !!

husband says to wife "####@$%$@$!" this is the last time I always get STINK HAND !!!

Found another one.

Yea but they got a huge dev team working in it actively, and they will fix any bug they found.

They put out many new innovations since their launch so it is a definitely a great currency to hold in my view.

The time of **Name of coin here** will come,very very soon

[tokeweed]

Found another one and lol'd.

Laughs best who laughs last.

 

[ridery99]

I would think they would want/need the Bitcointalk community in order to do that, otherwise are they just not creating another centralized Ripple/PayPal?

yes they need us. They will ask me which coin going to the moon next and what scam to invest or when bob dumps

[gnargnar]

If you want to read 'em all, just take a look at the NavajoCoin ann thread since the last 8 months or so.
Filled with bagholders quotes gems.....

Like all investments and all new companies, they tend to initially lose value. However, its value is bound to increase if the company or the project show some real potential. Much like bitcoin, if *your project here* sees some real adoption it may probably rise in value in the long run.

Maybe next time I should post the people who said them? 

What do you guys think?

[Spoetnik]

how about "White Paper" this and "White Paper" that.. ?
nothing like a certified proper document using regulated stock market jargon to lure fools into an unregulated ponzi coin scene LOL

uhh blah blah IPO uhhhh White Paper blah blah blaaah
..like it means something ahhaaha

[tokeweed]

^ Hahahaha.  So true.  That's why I've also learned to appreciate people who come out and call a project a "scam".  Makes you stop and actually think about it well before buying in.

At first I thought most of them were envious pricks because the "new project" might be the "one".  But then come months or a year later, the people who called out those projects as scams were right more than 80% of the time.

Nah, I like that you don't name names because then we are just tearing each other down.

Yeah, it takes the fun out of it.  I also opted to not mention the altcoins involved.

Here's a great one lol

now rate going down and big panic sell.. Undecided what happend in this coin

It will be fine. Corection is comming. Wait one hour and you will see.
Panic buy will start soon... (when no one wants to dump)

I just bought 4k coins.  

Agree  

I also doubled my holdings  

If it goes down every day by 50 - 100% won't even starkers be at a loss? At the current rate of dumping that is?

It is not gonna happen.
It can´t goes down every day by 50 - 100%. Every coin has a floor. This one is surely not exception.
Price finds its bottom. The only important thing is cath the bottom.
I´m in loss right now. But it doesn´t matter. I will buy everytime when the price falls down.
After every bottom, there is always rebound.

For every retarded dumper, there is a smart investor.

that's right! fuck dumper! their brain only know how to make few hundred bucks  

3 sat? You want to dump or what? It's stupid, but I hope you will do it and fill my buy order.

I got my buy orders in on cex and trex for 2 sats now dump on me..dumpers..

16.0929 BTC sell wall at 1 sat now.
