Bitcoin starting to look more and more like TULIP BULBS of 1600s

[exocytosis]

but I personally don't consider credit cards to be more convenient than Bitcoin

No. But 99.99 % of humanity considers credit cards to be way more convenient than Bitcoin. And that's what matters. Not what you and the other ten thousand people in the Bitcoin cult thinks.

[Ibian]

Troll, feed, etc.

99.99% of humanity would have told Henry Ford they wanted faster horses, not smelly, oily, gaz-guzzling noisy contraptions like "cars", and that's what mattered. Not.

lol at this analogy.  does not work out in the least bit.  lol at "oily, smelly gaz guzzling"

Why? I think it's the right analogy. The oily part is exaggerated, but the point is that customers don't necessarily know what's the best technology.

If you think this is the correct analogy then you'll have to blame your teachers for failing in teaching you logic as this will be precisely the reason why you end up living out of a cardboard box.

There are analogies... that ain't the right one.

Would you be kind enough to enlighten us and teach us the analogy that will perfectly fit this situation, please?

[fairglu]

There are analogies... that ain't the right one.

That's a strong argumentation you made there.

what a fucking useless thread full of stupid people.

And another lol.
Ford didn't invent the car, that was (arguably) Karl Benz.  About ten years before the Model T.  
Ford's genius was in making his cars cheap, user-friendly, and affordable.
See some new parallels emerging?

Henry Ford was the first to build an assembly line for mass production.

[NotLambchop]

^Something like that.  There were assembly lines before Ford.  He did a bunch of stuff to streamline assembly--I think he was the first to use parts that were standardized enough not to require hand-fitting.  He did a bunch of interesting stuff, like pay his employees much more than the going wage, and offered their families child care, medical care and ...other stuff

Metcalfs law (with some noise). Let's all hope the model isn't wrong...

[jaberwock]

So everyone is interested in Bitcoin and no one thinks it is a bubble?

How can something be a bubble, when most people think it will fail and is a bubble?

2012 called, they want their failed comparison back

Xiaoxiao starting to look more and more like falllllllllllling of manipulation101s

[maker88]

jimbo, you are like the bull version of falllling.

Wow. Did I hit a nerve?

It's the first time (I believe) I ever replied to one of your posts.

I consider myself neither bull nor bear. Call me a "cultist" if you want because I strongly believe in Bitcoin as disruptive technology.

I just like to laugh at bears because they take themselves so seriously.

Like Faiiiling? I don't often even start threads, let alone spam FUD.

**sigh**

no you don't start threads like fallling, but you get all defensive anytime someone brings up a valid criticism of bitcoin.

Except your criticisms are not at all valid...

[ChuckBuck]

bitcoin and tulip are both ponzi pyramid schemes

Great post!   

Any evidence to backup your "factual statement"?
