Shit this is that classic thread that indicates a floor has been hit. i was really hoping for cheaper coins.
You said less than a week ago that Bitcoin was going to do nothing but trend at $800. (you were proven wrong within 3-4 hours). What he said has nothing about his previous predictions to do |

Not all of my posts are to be taken seriously, including the one you are quoting. I was making jokes about 800 because we had bounced back to 800 5 times already and I was getting sick of it. |

Don't listen to the echo chamber; no one has ever gone broke by locking in profits.

Who says the OP can actually lock in profits at these prices?  |

True, but cmon, it's just one fella sold his coins. you need a larger measure of sentiment. 500 is still in striking distance just by correction. |

I'll take USD over BTC any day of the week. In fact, the only use I have for BTC is as a speculative tool to grow my USD. |

One needs very good reasons to deviate from this. |

USD doesn't really have any value. It's only useful because most of the world hasn't figured this out yet. Pssst don't tell anyone  |

USD didn't net you a return of 500% over a few months either The bears are clearly getting delusional |

I'm pretty sure USD lost a couple 1000% there... |

Giant swings in purchasing power isn't a positive quality in a currency. In a stock, commodity, or other investment vehicle sure...but in a currency, it is a very BAD thing.

As a Bitcoin investor, I hate selling and the process keeps my material wants in check |
