Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

World's First Bitcoin ATM in Cyprus

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Of-4Hzlbsps

That bitcoin ATM in Cyprus will yet be this rally undoing.  It is such a catching meme now - but it will grow old quickly and I am pretty sure that there will be no bitcoin ATM in Cyprus in this year. 

Add to that this photoshopped picture.

Unfortunately, there are several mistakes in this video:

  • Mr. Knight said that "Bitcoin is going to install and ATM". Of course, there is not Bitcoin organization.
  • It was never clear that the person who said that they were going to put a bitcoin ATM in Cyprus really intends to do it.
  • Mr. Knight said that "Good money drives out bad." The saying is actually exactly the opposite, "Bad money drives out good."
  • "Bad money drives out good" is not Gresham's Law, though they are similar.

Edit: The person in the video is David Knight, not Alex Jones.

Agree with everything you just said.

Additionally we have been hearing about these bitcoin ATMs for years. I don't want to hear any more about them until you can actually SHOW ME one that is out there, not in a conference but actually on the field, right now, and in use.

So far they are all hype with no substance.

Mr. Jones said that...

That's not Mr. Jones.  That's David Knight, reading from a report by The Dollar Vigilante:
