Yawn, haven't been here for a while and just thought I'd come take a look today

What happened to conquering the world? Oh wait that's just Bitcoin's selling line, most here are to get rich quick

Most, in their naivety, fail in that and make a huge loss (money+time wasted). But guys, make sure to advertise those rich bitcoiners and make people believe they can become rich too with Bitcoin!!!

Always interesting to analyse the community of bitcoin, it's a great place to see the sheep behaviour of humans

Should screenshot this thread. Then 50 years later kids will say to their mothers "Look mommy, a man wrote something weird" and the mother would reply "In the old days, that is what we called a bank sockpuppet".

That's not very nice, Sorry for posting a nice comment.


I have been promoting Bitcoin since 2010, and running this business since 2011.

unoriginal wealth sucker? BIPS is only charging for conversion to fiat. You are free to use eWallet without any fees. Granted it cost us money when people use only eWallet, but it is worth it to promote Bitcoin.

Oh well.

2013 is all i know of bitcoin, and it's been a learning curve of sometimes rollercoaster proportions - pump and dump, cyprus, fincen, asics, winklevoss etc. - maybe you're hyped and impatient amidst all this stuff... me, i'm just starting to get a sense of things and beginning to enjoy it...

What ingenious business idea do you have?  If you no longer care about Bitcoin, why are you still here?

You don't seem to realize periods of "being boring" is what differentiates Bitcoin from a Ponzi scheme.

It takes time to introduce, distribute and grow a currency, especially one as innovative and complex as Bitcoin. Obviously not everyone can obtain Bitcoin at the same exchange rate, so at the very least for credibility/fairness you would want periods of "boring" stability.

Anyway, project development and other things are in motion, just maybe not obviously to you.

To each their own, I think bitcoins are still every bit as exciting if not moreso than when the concept was first introduced because we've proven that it can be a viable and stable economical market.

On what basis do you say that. I haven't met many on here who have made huge losses on bitcoin. For that to happen you would have to have many coins stolen (which occasionally does happen) or buy high and sell low.  This is not most peoples experience. Anybody who holds is laughing. Many people on here have benefited greatly from bitcoins huge rise in price. I bought at £ 3 - 4. Its now £60. Not bad huh? Any other asset class gone up 2000% in a few years? Is that boring? Really?

I'm not really this big of a "believer" in Bitcoin, but I can't help but continue this: "Mommy, what's a bank?"

guess the OP hasnt checked out the 12,000 plus food merchants, the hundreds of bars, pubs, etc. the cafe's etc all accepting bitcoin.

should we treat this as bad on him for not exploring beyond the front page of this forum. or blame ourselves for not publicising all the businesses to make people aware they exist

I DO NOT TRADE OR ACT AS ESCROW ON THIS FORUM EVER.
Please do your own research & respect what is written here as both opinion & information gleaned from experience. many people replying with insults but no on-topic content substance, automatically are 'facepalmed' and yawned at

Always interesting to analyse the community of bitcoin, it's a great place to see the sheep behaviour of humans

i thought the "problem" with Bitcoin was that it was too volatile and b/c of that merchants couldn't trust it therefore it was doomed to failure?

you should be happy it's boring and now indicates success.

I'm not even a Bitcoin flag bearer and I have to disagree, Bitcoin is anything but boring.  Weekends can be a bit dull and we do have some sleepy sideways trading days BUT...when the BTC markets move, boy do they move.  

If your ignore button isn't glowing, you're doing it wrong.

Oh my the bears these days are just giving up. I mean, back in the day, before Proudhon went out of the closet at least they had style, but now they're uttering collective armpit farts.

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.

Whatever that is, it isn't boring. I can't believe they defenestrated the poor guys cappuccino machine. Now I'm off to expound some socialism and freemasonry, and to partake in some perversion.
