In the year 2010 I was introduced to bitcoin while listening to a philosophy podcast. At that time bitcoin had just CRASHED all the way from $30 down to $3. The "bubble" had popped if you will, and it was quite clear to everyone that bitcoin was dead.

So I decided to buy 500 Bitcoin.

The very next day I walked into my garage and accidentally stepped onto a rake which flew up and hit me in the head and was knocked out cold and remained in a coma for 5 years.

I woke from my coma yesterday and the first thing that I did was ask what the price of bitcoin was doing, the answer i got was, "Bitcoin is dead, it's just crashed all the way down to $197."
Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Gee, you out for 5 years and after you wake up, first thing you ask about bitcoin. Should you ask about your love ones,even who is the president?
My point is, because you ask about bitcoin first thing, bitcoin is not dead.

Perhaps I should have put a disclaimer that this is a fictional story.

HaHa  I see what you did there...  Well played!

For those that don't understand:  Bitcoin has lost 90% of its value twice already since 2011 before moving to new highs.  We are now approaching -90% from the last high.  Good times are ahead for bitcoin holders.

FYI:
That first big bust started in June 2011 (not 2010)

Unfortunately, all that bitcoin profit will now go to your 5 years worth of medical bills, and probably won't cover it. Tongue

The coma story sounds legit Roll Eyes

I think the downtrend might be close to end. At least that is what I am hoping as I am buying.

The lesson to learn from this fictional story is 'all good things come to those who wait', so go now buy BTC and get into a coma.

I am hoping it stays below $200 for as long as possible, I can only buy a certain amount every check. The longer the price stays low, the more Bitcoin I will own.

The bitcoin price will continue to fall. It's been falling all 2014 and dropped dramatically early 2015.
I can't see things changing anytime soon.

Note to self: Hunt me down a rake to step on.

The gist of the message is that from $30 it went up to $200 in 5 years, so if you are saying it's dead, then think again whether the statement holds true.  Grin Grin Grin

Cool story bro , seems legit  Roll Eyes
Anyway no it's not dead , it will probably keep dropping but this dosen't make it dead at all . at least not for me ... beside it will eventually rise once again and rise badly... It just may take some time
