Most of you are legends, I don't know if I fit very well here, I feel a little weird among so many veterans, being such a rookie disappoints a little.  Will I ever get over this feeling? VB1001 was a rookie not so very long ago...Look what he accomplished now as being one of the very more respected WO-members Everyone of us found their way into the forum and possibly in the WO thread. Be yourself, and you’ll eventually find your unique way to be part of the game. Long time ago I wrote something about that: Ranking up is possible! 2000 Merits earned in less than 12 months!My 11 Hints!lol, Soon you will change the thread title again. Ranking up is possible! 3000LOL! Well spotted my friend!

Thanks, i just watched it as well...quite interesting, but to blame it on US (mostly) is a bit strange. That said, our world is weird in so many ways.In a nutshell, its better to be a rich and envied than be poor and laughed at....

Is the desire for newcomers to share their bitcoin ownership a unique phenomenon? You never see folks on other asset specific forums posting things like: "I finally own X ounces of gold!" "I finally own Y shares of $AAPL!" "I finally own Z dollars!" https://twitter.com/lopp/status/1216024933014347778

I like to say that I died under strange circumstances in India.
That usually gets them off my back.

Especially now two years have passed since merit was introduced, it would highlight legendary users who have not only stuck around but also added considerable value to the forum in the meantime - which can't be said for most legendary ranked members it seems  Notably from BPIP, with a 2000+ merit requirement alone, it would be less than 66 members, based on users that have received 1000+ merit that is. I think activity would have to be 2000, in order to remain not too exclusive, or even just the same as legendary around 1000. I know you weren't proposing it officially, but I was curious to how many users a new rank would include... not many basically.

Sorry to hear that, I lost all mine when I was in hospital in Uganda. I was struck down with a rare strain of malaria. Whilst I was in intensive care somebody stole my Trezor & I don’t have a copy of the seed, it was in my backpack which wasn’t recovered when I fell ill.

Edit : okay, I am way off and didn't get the joke  I absolutely love India, it's a top notch country, but I'd never thought about the argumentativeness aspect, thanks. Makes a lot of sense. Yes some exchange owner 'died' there.

even newbs know not to say how many big ones they own even shiny newcomers know not to wear garb that says i heart bitcoin even noobies know just to say well i try to stack sats even juniors say oh yeah i had some but then i lost it in a boating accident
i have several bitcoin tshirts i used to wear in public. got some thumbs up and "nice tshirt" comments from people ranging from a door greeter at costco to my one of my MDs. but that was years ago, and i rarely wear them in public now. sucks really. we are supposed to be supporting btc any way we can, not be afraid of mentioning it.

Yes it's annoying and sad really. One can do bitcoin shirt shopping here where the vibe is subtle, but still https://bitcoinshirt.co/product-category/mens-clothing/

Easy peasy: Give the shirts to a social welfare organisation. Some of them will likely be worn in highly frequented, public places.
