if i were OP i wouldn't really care that much.. 100 coins is plenty. he's made a lot of money and if it hits 10k, he'll have millions.

Correction.  A million.  Singular.

To be fair, he never done anything bad. It's just that his timing was terrible.

Who would have thought we would have been at 1224 today when the price was at 300.

I value honesty above niceness.  I hate the way modern society seems to prefer dishonest niceness.

*hugs*

LOL...hugs back, nervously.

hmmm, I would call bitcoin stable when it spends months between 120 and 150

however it seems some believe stable is going from 150 to 400 in under 1 month?

yeah it could go to 500, 800, 1000........   but when this thing goes into full panic it falls faster than anything i have ever seen. So for me, nothanks. If it makes it to 1000 I'll sell all my remaining 25%.


Seems nice plan, so now out of Bitcoins and waiting for the unevitable crash ?

when you guys cash out, do you prepare yourselves to pay capital gains taxes or what? it seems like it would be a headache.. i've yet to do it.

well, he did say he'd sell at $1k if it gets there.. i wonder if he's changed his mind or if he's sticking to the plan? either way, you'll come out making some sweet cash, so no biggie.

He cashed out 100% way before $1000 - around $500 I think. He mentioned it in another thread.

He has been conspiciously absent here recently. Wink

But he's in this for the thrill - for the trading experience - he sees it only as a speculation, that's how his mind works. And that's fine. Most people won't understand the potential of bitcoin until that potential is realized. That is just the way of the world.

If Bitcoin flys up from here and then "crashes" or strongly "corrects" we will see Jason again.

Maybe.

he's still a winner no matter what.. maybe not as much as some others, but so what? he still came out ahead. i think the smart thing would have been to sell less off over time, but hey it's his life.

i just feel a little bad for the guy, because i'd be pulling my hair out if it happened to me. he still made money either way, so the glass is equally full as it is empty.

then again, fuck that.. he's made a lot more money than me. no pity for you sir!

I pity the fool who sells his bitcoin

Give a man a fish and he eats for a day.  Give a man a Poisson distribution and he eats at random times independent of one another, at a constant known rate.

Just read this thread for the first time today.  I can see why OP thought it was a good time to sell.  I too thought at the time that it seemed like an unlikely rise.  Bitcoin had been pretty stagnant for a while.  

Thankfully hubby and I are long term holders.  Partially for tax reasons.  Partially because we don't have a large amount compared to many really.  We don't want to mess with claiming anything on them this year.  Next year should be fun.

But I really appreciate some of the posts on the forum about the best strategies for taking profits.  It seems that a tiered sell off is a great way to go.  I think the riskiest thing to do is to sell them all in one lump because we really do not know what is going to happen long term.

Granted, people have different goals and purposes for investing and most people that have sold have made impressive gains that have helped their lives significantly.  Who knows, we might be the crazy ones for holding without reaping any profits but it sure has been an exciting adventure.  Grin
