The only people on here that have any chance at making REAL money are the people who basically got their coins for less than $1000. They know who they are and they are smart. They are the ones pimping and hyping the shit out of bitcoins. I have been rebuffed for used stocks as an example but it applies to bitcoins. The people who have gotten in on the big companies and made their millions and millions are the ones who got in at the right time. Coke, microsoft, apple etc the list goes on. The ordinary joe is going to get rich on an obscure stock now? They're going to catch the boat. Opportunities come around many times in a persons life and right now at $200 the boat is still in dock. even at $100 or $50 the boat was believed to be gone! EVEN if you don't have a ton of money to begin with and my point is then moot. Can you imagine having 10 bitcoins and you paid $2000 for them? Now you have smart people scraping $1000 together to buy 5 coins. Do you see what I mean?

Now I have a question for the naysayers. Tell me there isn't an investment past or present(not a stock) that costs $200 or less that anyone could buy that made that person a millionaire. The only caveat is that the investment had/has to be a fully disseminated idea that the world knows/knew about. So in other words the person got in AFTER THE FACT and made millions off of a smart investment.

I'm getting tired of this boat already. I don't think I like it anyway. I'd rather have a ship, or perhaps a yacht...

I think it is worth remembering that this is not a stock and does not perform like one. Stocks have a limit on their growth based on the value of the company, bitcoin does not. Stocks have a minimum valuation below which the company becomes insolvent and collapses. No such thing in bitcoin.  Bitcoin works if coins are $10k or $1.

btc will be used as a tool by humanity depending on the different historical stages.
right now global economy is struggling so btc is used more as a hedging commodity against the inflation of world currencies/ongoing era at the edge of next crisis.
when times are changing and everyday-use of btc is growing probably its use as a currency will evolve or its replaced by a more sophisticated successor.



your not funny.
i have to disagree, it's highly humorous. let's call it the walsorajan approach  Wink

It's a fourteen-carat yatch, of course!

Someone with the guts to hold coins bought at $30 in 2011 would fare wery well today, and by the looks of it in a few months from now the same will be said about those who bought at $266...

nobody knows...
either he turned upside down in the truest sense of the word
or he got bored seeing his controverse appearance being trolled.


the height of walsoraj performance was quoting his uneven brother  Cheesy

Cheesy, me too
everytime when gox was in slow-mo he made observerthread quite entertaining.
he isn't purely trolling though, sometimes he has a point.

here's one for the cult
