They basically said "if you want to do business open the fuck up a business account."

That's quite polite of them.

$3711 on Stamp atm

[d_eddie]

man

I remember real MDMA

I don't think they have that any more

Or is it just that you aren't the same any more? That magic is fragile.

So, no; jbreher is not becoming nervous during these trying times. Get the fuck out of here with your ridiculous mischaracterizing projection defense mechanisms.

JJG is a controversial character: a WO staple food but unsavoury to some, a rhetorical nightmare for the discerning reader but a force feeder of sense for the noob and the faith losing initiate.

One thing we can all agree with: his style has been shaped into memes by sympathizers and adversaries alike. Perhaps?

So I've just spent the last few hours scanning through the posts on this thread from mid December 2014 to mid January 2015. It is amazing how similar everything was back then to how it is right now. I recommend any one who is questioning bitcoin right now to go read those posts, you will see that this time is no different to back then and the lesson I learned is buy more coins.

I particularly like some of the comments from the members who still comment now. here's one from LFC_Bitcoin which I find interesting because I think he feels the same now as he did back then

Blood in the streets.
Is anybody going to buy?
I'm a lot of $ down but would anybody recommend buying now?

My favorite comment though is this one

Is crypto done??  

No. Crypto isn't done.

But Bitcoin is.

Bitcoin will drag everyone down with it. But crypto will survive.

We need a crypto that can serve humanity's needs for the next 100 years. Bitcoin cannot do this. It's unfortunate that Bitcoin has died, but it has to be this way. Bitcoin achieved so much. No other crypto would be where it is today without the achievement of Bitcoin.

Requiescat in pace.

Ahhhh bro, at that point I think I was more than 50% down on what I invested. Thinking about it that was a lot worse!
Even now I’m still at over 15 x what I’ve put in.

I guess it just proves, stick with it & we’ll be ok in the end.

HODL on man!

[Phil_S]

I actually thought I could retire  

We all thought that.  And you still can.  Just in 3 more years.  

Give me a shot out of a cannon HM - The price about 1 year after the halvening.

An estimate?

$280k on 14 December 2021

Will do mate, 40k is my goal to sell about 30% of my holdings. The rest stays in for ever, unless of course we get a massive bubble after that to >100k, will sell a little more then.

You know, I think you and me bought in at roughly the same time and roughly similar amounts. Hopefully, we also roughly retire around the same time. I'm predicting 2020/21

[encycrypto]

I guess we're going to see a big swing in value today. Hard to predict if it'll be upside or downside.

[gentlemand]

Is that a real thing? It's pretty funny. Looking. Pretty funny looking.

Nay, mine is somewhat more ... pedestrian.

I love the modesty so often on display here.

There's the self-effacing claim, and then there's the reality...

[HairyMaclairy]

We are due a short squeeze soon.  I’m using very low leverage.  

[LFC_Bitcoin]

@somac. - I predict the same, 2021 mid year so Q2 or Q3. I’m hoping to sell around 30-50% then which will see me never having to work again.

Like you said, the rest will stay in cold storage forever with the possible, occasional dip into for luxuries.

Fingers crossed hey!
