I have. Who else?
Anyone have any plans to buy soon?
Or are most of you poor and have little to no BTC?

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

Saying that we are too poor to go buy btc is a bit naive lol.
But I guess it falls upon the age bracket on this forum.. and the average btc holder in general. I personally lost a ton of btc back in 2012, but left with a few coins.
I plan on buying in once the btc xt horror panic moment happens.

I missed out on the cheap cheap coins yesterday, since I haven't been following the price as frequently as I used to.
It might get lower again, so I'm not in a hurry to buy a grip of coins right now. I think I'll just stick to my monthly buys and maybe I'll get lucky.

Haha yeah well sometimes in order to get people's attention you have to be a little coarse! Do you not think the past few days have been capitulation related the "xt horror panic" ? I guess I personally hope it is, but am not real positive as we haven't really bounced that hard yet? |

I think yeah people are worried, but they shouldnt be freaking out if the price will fall below what people would hope. Some people see it as a big change, but I feel its the same thing just things are going to be a bit slower? |

There were some forced liquidations on Bitfinex, but that's all. The rest of the exchanges just look bearish as hell. Naturally, some demand at the $220 previous bottom area but...... I don't see a capitulation spike on the Chinese exchanges, no volume spike...... no V bottom. Doesn't look like past major bottoms. Probably more slow bleeding to come. |

I bought a handful at $222 when it crashed and was on the rebound. Tried for $210 but the price skyrocketed back up before I could do it!  |

I've got a pretty decent stash in cold storage. I haven't bought any for a few months now though. I got to a certain amount that I was happy with in my head & locked them up on paper wallets. I will probably buy if we go sub 200 but don't have any plans to buy right now. That's only because I'm happy with the amount I've accrued for long term HODLING though, if I was a bitcoin noob with few coins I'd buy in now as these are cheap coins.

Bitcoin will be going up and down likely for all its life. It's just the nature of it. Personally I wont be buying any more as I stopped long ago as I have a sufficient amount now that I'll just save for the future and see where it goes.

I feel like its going to stay around those prices for this week.
So eventually it`ll increase but for those who want to buy, it should be the recovering slow period is when to buy. I personally think theres more hurdles for bitcoin so I`ll wait on the sidelines after the XT and then the halving as well.

I have successfully brought some Bitcoins out of my bankroll in past few days and is currently looking a good investment and I'm looking forward for prices to increase in the upcoming months as halving period is coming closers.
Just made a good decision at the right moment and want some profit off it.

No, I have missed it, I have been asleep. When I woke up and saw low of $162 on the Bitcoin widget, I couldn't believe my own eyes. Somehow, all these major drops in price happen while Europe is asleep.
Oh well!

I had a good amount of bitcoins, bought around 250-280, i now decided to convert them into litecoins since the potential, at least is what i think, its higher, i mean litecoins going from 3 to 4 will already give me more profit than bitcoin growing up 50 dollars and with the fork coming out it may go high

The retards who are buying now and not selling are going to lose and end up selling below $100.But past happenings do not guarantee future happenings... You may have been right once, twice or even more times, but this does not mean you will be right this time..  I've always been correct on BTC price in terms of the major moves. I was even correct in early 2013 when at $10 I gave my thumbs up to going all in. Well in May I wrote in several Economics -> Speculation threads that BTC would rise from the low $200s to $315, then it would crash back down to eventually below $150 (and probably to double-digits) no later than sometime after October.
I reiterated these points over the past weeks in the Economics -> Speculation -> PnF and Economics -> Speculation -> Free Money threads. Even a few hours before the crash I reiterated these points again that everyone should have been short since $315.
The bottom in the BTC price will come in Spring 2016, and it will be back below $100, perhaps even below $50.
After that, we will start a new bull market that will make investors rich.
If you weren't dumb, you'd learn to stop ignoring me. You'd be clicking my Profile and reading all my archive of posts.
But you are dumb and lazy, so you won't do that. And so you will remain ignorant. And I sort of like that, don't you?
And last but certainly not least, sue your mother and fuck her too, because she brought your dumb ass into this world.  (that is if you think you should abrogate your responsibility and sue anyone for the market price movements of BTC)Everyone should have been short since $315 which is what I said first. And I should have stuck to that. Predicting the short-term moves is going to get you stopped out and you'll miss the entire decline. Everyone who did not short at $315 has already lost the decline to $254.
PS: I've decided to risk a portion of my BTCs following the advice you gave on Klee's thread. As stated there, I don't feel comfortable about it, but more and more I am convinced that your approach of BTC's is essentially a "gold-like" commodity and should be treated like one, is true.  As more people capitulate to the reality that it is better to be short than long that is what drives the extreme low. This bounce back up is one more gift to go short before it is too late. Again the "Only the Date is Unknown". I don't know how far up the price will reach before crashing again or the timing. Volatility will increase. The "End of Government" can mean many things. It can mean we still have governments exerting totalitarianism with the chaos of loss of rule of law (i.e. rampant corruption in government). Again study my upthread review of the decades long chaotic collapse of the Western Roman empire. The government won't entirely disappear any time soon. You'll wish they would. In Rome it got so bad that the people just abandoned their land because the government was so oppressive. Later there was no government in Rome and only cows grazing in the city. But first the totalitarianism.

Please dismiss. Smart money recognizes valid logic. That is how we end up with winners and losers. Your emotional problem is your problem, not mine. Are you sure you are a man? (check down there) You confuse knowledge with ego. (did you ever consider I was trying to help you fool  ) |
