Scamcoins also had speculative bubbles, what are we to learn from that?

You mean those pump and dump schemes involving a few people pumping the price and probably another few who get dumped on ? Hardly anything. Funny that your MP quote fits better in your arguments than mine.

Oh sorry, I didn't remember that autists may find it difficult to understand anything that is written in non-perfect grammar.

Doge had some interesting speculative bubbles.  Doge market cap is substantially larger than Bitcoin's was 5 years ago (@ the same age). 

What are we to take away from this?

It took decades for people to figure out how to harness the power of Uranium.

And it will not take too long for Bitcoin BEARS to harness the power of  URANUS!

I am not sure but when I jumped in I considered BTC as the de facto base currency (something like gold) for altcoin speculation but something changed on the road.
After I stopped trading altcoins (the possibility for me to make some nice gains got significantly lower) I sat back a little and just waited for BTC to rise. I figured I made enough BTC, so let's not play it away. I waited for the big bang with BTC in my pocket. But my profits started to fade away due to the falling USD/BTC prices.
But a few weeks ago, I slowly transitioned into a state where I see the USD/BTC market the same way as I used to see BTC/shitcoin markets. Sometimes it's hard to let things go, but you must.
For example, I really liked the Darkcoin community but I didn't make a mistake when I sold it all. So, may be one day (not too far in the future), I will have to let all my Bitcoins go.
However, the margin trade options on Bitfinex should keep me going for some time. And this is a distinct difference. I couldn't short DRK even though it's also listed on Bitfinex. I probably would have kept ~1k DRK if I could short it (and thus extract the same amount of USD/or/BTC without selling the "asset").

In a bull market, an average investor makes money.  Conversely, in a bear market, an average investor loses it.  2014 has been a bear market.
To profit in a bear market, one would have to be above average.  As I know you all are.

Obvious, but stands repeating

I like to think of this topic as a type of Doomclock. When it reaches 10.000 pages, Bitcoin will be decimated.

You know the original definition of decimate is killing 1/10th, yes?

Bitcoin gets decimated all the time, somehow Bitcoin is still a thing though.

You can call me a moron, but i think BTC needs fork to cut reward and cut total supply after mining to, let's say 14-15m

You are a moron.
