I'm sorry if it sounded as if I have sold ALL my bitcoins. I have not, not even close. I sold about 5% between $700-1000 (I diversified). But I have not invested any more money into bitcoin for over a year, until now.

Do you still trust Bitstamp at this point? I would withdrawn all BTC as soon as possible after operating. Unless you are a daytrader imo don't leave a single satoshi in any exchange. Even Andreas has been saying this for ages.

Amen to that. Lost quite some BTC in mtgox because I trusted that their cold wallet is a cold wallet (and does not "leak").

Never underestimate counterparty risk!

Yes, leaving coins in a market = they arent your coins anymore because you dont own the private keys.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody

Lol, Good catch. Well, its a critique/joke but its better than no publicity at all. At least a lot of the Jimmy Fallon audience may google Bitcoin and learn from themselves.
Im seeing too many jokes about Bitcoin lately in mainstream media tho. It gets fucking annoying at times. These dumb dollar loving cunts will not know where its coming from when shit hits the fan.

Good for you Spjuth!

Too many "I'm out!" or "Sold all my Bitcoins" or "Bitcoin's dead" yada yada threads.

Good to see an old soul come back into the fray, and reinvest into Bitcoin.

Welcome back!   Grin

So the dust settled around $215 and people are buying in again in droves expecting the price to rise. Where is the catch?

If everyone buys expecting the price to rise, then it will rise, won't it? Isn't that how supply and demand works?

An economy based on endless growth is unsustainable.

Thanks! I have bought at the bottom (or close to) of every crash. I love those times!
When there is nothing wrong with the fundamentals/nothing has changed but everyone is panicking, I know it's turning towards buying times.
When everyone is depressed and calling the end of bitcoin, it's time to buy.

Most people are driven by irrational feelings. When price is going up, they see the quick buck and will buy. When price is going down, they cry themselves to sleep, wondering why they did not sell earlier. I see it as if you act the opposite way, you will gain.

A friend asked me at what price I will sell my coins. I answered him never. At the price point where I can think of selling my coins, they are at a level where everyone accepts them and there is no longer any need for fiat currency. At that point no one will talk about selling bitcoins, since they are the base.

I know it might seem strange that I feel exhilarate at these times when bitcoin price is at rock bottom and a lot of people, including me, have seen their assets diminish substantially. But I always try to see the opportunity, the rest is out of my hands.  Cheesy

Finally some of my favourite quotes:
“Buy when there’s blood in the streets, even if the blood is your own.“ - Baron Rothschild
"Don't buy when everyone else is buying. Buy when everyone else is selling." - Warren Buffet

Edit: wrong quote.

yes, in theory is to go up yes .... but in practice (in my view) just waiting.
