Can someone explain why that is so though? Can't exchanges similarly just "stop" people from buying bitcoin? I get that people can still do P2P transactions, but what happens if the "big" exchanges treat bitcoin similarly as RH did, restricting the buying...what happens then?

Might well cause a Streisand effect.. or a pushing of the BTC market underground.

There have already been numerous attacks on BTC in its history from a variety of governments and from a variety of financial institutions.  Remember how many Chinese citizens got fucked in 2016/2017 because their government was playing games with bitcoin and many of them pretty much got locked out of the 2016/2017 bull run because of actions of their government to lock up funds on exchanges... Similar kinds of things happened in India, and the Indian people are the ones that got screwed and locked out of being able to get into bitcoin while bitcoin still got pumped in other places around the world.

Other governments have taken similar stances in terms of trying to control the access of their citizens to bitcoin, and who ended up getting screwed?  Their citizens...  

Don't tell me that USA has not been making some efforts to try to keep bitcoin underwraps in various ways through the years, and there are likely segments of the USA government that are regretting having had decided to auction off so many BTC in 2014 and 2015, and sure some BIG governments might strive towards going after bitcoin in new and innovative ways, but might well have some effects that backfire, screw various of their citizens and end up contributing towards wack-a-mole issues rather than really stifling bitcoin in any kind of longer term or meaningful way.

How are you going to bet, PhoenixZephyrus?  Hopefully you are sufficiently prepared for UP rather than asking stupid ass questions that make it appear that you might NOT be sufficiently prepared for up on a personal level because you are too worried about nonsense negative scenarios that are not too likely to happen in ways that you imagine.,. rather than focusing on more likely scenarios.

man, get a reputable broker and not this bucket-shop called RobinSucks

Using Robinhood after yesterday and today is like owning BSV.

DFV doxxing himself is a stunt so no secret assassin will attempt anything on his life right now, otherwise it's going to be murder and they'll all blame the hedge funds. He's probably safer now than if he didn't identify himself. Ideally, he should have started being completely anon on WSB with no connection to his other activities.

So back to $33k - $31k, I take it?

I wish the float manipulator that's been fking around in the market since 1/02 would just GTFO.

His(their) painting the bearish pennant did fuck all.

(first post was removed, not sure why)

I remember when the housing collapse sent a torpedo through my family. My father's concrete company collapsed almost overnight. My father lost his home. My uncle lost his home. I remember my brother helping my father count pocket change on our kitchen table. That was all the money he had left in the world. While this was happening in my home, I saw hedge funders literally drinking champagne as they looked down on the Occupy Wall Street protestors. I will never forget that.

My Father never recovered from that blow. He fell deeper and deeper into alcoholism and exists now as a shell of his former self, waiting for death.

This is all the money I have and I'd rather lose it all than give them what they need to destroy me. Taking money from me won't hurt me, because i don't value it at all. I'll burn it all down just to spite them.

This is for you, Dad.

 Guys, guise, guys!   One of the girls in this pic had barely turned 15 when this movie was released which means she was likely 14 when these promo pictures were taken.  Put your bitcoin back in your pocket and keep your stick on the ice!

Dear WallStreetBets: Hedge Funds Are Very, Very Short Bitcoin

Here we respectfully bring to the attention of r/wallstreetbets something they may have missed in their search for shortable equities: move to futures, where one asset stands out. According to the CFTC's latest Traders in Financial Futures report, the net short position in bitcoin futures is now the biggest it has ever been.

What better way to hammer those evil hedge funds than to follow up the "short" colonoscopy with a moonshot in bitcoin, which leads to even more billions in losses.

[JayJuanGee]

Well well... lotsa new faces around this place today. Good thing fresh blood is flowing in, bad thing most of them appear to be shitcoiners (asking about doge etc). We need to stop this shitcoinery on WO ASAP!

Jbreher is back... or not? Whatever...

Pump... pump... pump... nuff said... 

Go Bitcoin go! New ATH in January? 

There has always been a certain number of shitcoiners in this thread, even amongst some of the regulars.. but there have always been a decent number of members willing to call out the bullshit of the shitcoiners and the shitcoiner themes and to strive to keep the shitcoinery to a minimum..... and yeah, sometimes mentioning shitcoins can be helpful in various attempts to understand the space.. as long as a few shitcoin denigrations are thrown in here and there along the way.. 

And even though it is sad to see V8 and Gentlemand absent from here in recent times, those two were amongst our members who did not pull any punches when it came to calling out the shitcoiners....... of course, we have current members who are of similar ilk.. so no need to name the many of us here who chime in on the topic from time to time, even if it is merely through ambiguous pictures (josquared.. who happens to be a litecoiner.. that fuck.. ..)

Proof that Andrew Left has always been a career-long dirtbag. He actually admits it now.

Fuck that guy, he got what he deserved.

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/29/citron-research-short-seller-caught-up-in-gamestop-squeeze-pivoting-to-finding-long-opportunities.html

"20 years ago I started Citron with the intention of protecting the individual against Wall Street, against the frauds and the stock promotions were just all over,” Left said in a YouTube video on Friday. “Where we started Citron was supposed to be against the establishment, we’ve actually become the establishment.”

“So as of today, Citron Research will no longer be publishing what can be considered as short selling reports,” Left added. Left said the firm will now focus on long opportunities for investors.

And then they join you.

went through the phases at lightspeed this one did.
