Market corrections in a nutshell

nah, not nearly random enough. This indicates that the rise and fall would be way more linear and predictable.

You’re right. A lot is missed. But it’s just a gif. All those prices are from the last 3 months. It shows the rise and dip that occurred

Some Russian scientists got busted for trying to use a gov supercomputer for bitcoin mining http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-43003740

My buddy has 251 bitcoin so I wonder how he feels right now. He probably made and lost so much money. He’s been holding since 2013 though.

im sure he is doing alright, he paid around $300 a coin in 2013

When cryptos go up, miners screw with the gamers. When they go down, miners fuck it up for GPU manufacturers.

Why?

I've no real idea how bitcoin investment really works but the fact I keep getting emails telling me to invest in it, tells me I shouldn't.

it's a new market that made it mainsteam, so its natural scammers will jump on peaple trying to get into it

Yeah, I'll just file it under "don't bother" tbh.

The top post on r/cryptocurrency was a suicide hotline number post when the prices had a small dent, fucking bull

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

"small dent" marketcap basicly dropped 75% , if you got in at an ATH that hurts (well if you overextendd)

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

you're thinking of the wrong thing i'm pretty sure, it didn't drop by 75% and everyone knew it was going to be at-most for a week

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

MC was 750 billion, lowest point was around 250 billion , talking about overall marketcap, also BTC was at 20k , now it's around 8-9k

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

for the drop i was talking about it was around 12-10 i believe, then it dropped to 9 for like a week, went back then dropped again

You know what bugs me about bitcoin? At every point during it's rise, investing in bitcoin was a provably bad decision, except that 1/2

8 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 1

It ended up being a financially good outcome right up until recently. Mob Mentality makes economics hard when the mob is moronic. 2/2

This one was surreal. It's not an investment that bubbled; they invested into a bubble, deliberately.

Even now after a >50% drop is still up 800 % on 1 year range. Anyway you can t lose money if you don't sell (and 1/2

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 2

And if you invested what you could afford to lose ), maybe creating a portfolio

It dropped to levels last seen around thanksgiving. Unless you got in after that, you’re still up

Unless you got out, you still only have imaginary money. You still can't use BTC like real money, and no one guarantees it won't go lower.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 5

I can convert it to USD, EUR or gold at a moments notice, or send millions across the globe for $0.02. So “imaginary”

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Yes you can, right now, but it isn't real until you do so. If it was, well, you lost half of it last month.

Gold or salt standards were just fiat backed by perceived rarity, same diff as setting a limit on maximum coin amounts.

The problem is there's like 200 copies of it

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

There’s only a handful of true copies, each with perceived improvements (higher capacity, lower fees, or ASIC resistance). 99% are BS, tho

As long as you can split it up. The "cap" doesn't really matter. Eventually it'll be like 1 trillionth of a bitcoin would be standard.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 3

The dollar can be split up and we don’t have endless dollars due to that particular fact Smallest unit is 1 Satoshi, or 1/100,000,000 btc

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

So far. It can probably be split up more. Btw have they've solved the problem with lost private keys? As to explain if someone dies 1/2

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

It’s not really a ‘problem’ that’s just life. It’s priced daily and that price incorporates all the lost btc

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

and owning a lot of bitcoins (Or just overtime a lot of owners of bitcoin/privatekeys dies) how will those bitcoins be recovered?

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

They wont be recovered, so in reality it’s <21 million. As to how many have been lost forever, no one really knows

It's amazing people don't understand how stupid it is to have a "currency" that's deflationary by design.

It’s more of a commodity than a “currency” brah. Gold does just fine

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Yes, it's a commodity but with zero practical value, unlike gold which is used in many industrial processes. Not even as useful as tulips.

A trustless, permissionless, private source of value exchange has “zero” practical value, got it
