You do understand that someone always loses in the stock market right?

I wonder how many people lost their ass with nvidia, Apple, and pge in the last two weeks?

What’s the difference? One is a legal scam and the other is the alternative? Maybe that’s it?

The difference between stocks and crypto is that one is supported by an income producing asset and the other is not. Why do the crypto faithful not seem to understand this?

Not hammering people that lost money, just the people who were trying to tell everybody to jump on this train.

It may work for you, but the vast majority of people who hopped on that train have lost money.

Maybe the disconnect is an assumption of basic trading knowledge. When people say, "BUY BTC!!", to me, it comes with an asterisk of, "surely you see the absurd volatility of this train, so go ahead and ride it...as long as you know when to step off" and not, "..and hold 4vr because it smokes CAT in the long run!!!".

I really don’t like people that say thing like “you made me lose all that money”. It’s those folks that don’t understand investing and how to properly DD and maintain their investments. It’s a shame it happened but those people probably fall into the same category of folks that get fleeced for IRS/Nigerian prince stuff.

this is an i-told-you-so moment for us "shit posters" and "FUD spreaders" and whatever else you called those in this thread who were highly critical of buttcoin and warned of imminent danger.

What I told you so moment? That btc went up and then down?

Are we out of the I told you moment? When does it end?

Right. People bought a fast and unreliable bike that crashes easily when they really should have bought a honda scooter and they blame the bike for their own inability to tell the difference.

Yup. It’s your fault I crashed. All I was doing was trying to keep up.
 
the great thing about barf and online media is it lets people show their true colors when you give them a chance to let their guard down and tell it like it is

posts here are very revealing about one's morals, values and ego

I'd say in the Pantheon of the internet, BARF (and forums in general) is not a place where we see the true people we'd meet on the street. Instead, we see who people script themselves to be. In person, everyone is less caustic and more agreeable.

Forum are an aberration in that respect; the ego is constantly controlling the keyboard. This place is a stage for many, until they realize it doesn't matter what's said here, really. Most everything is forgotten a few months later or not cared much of...except in the rare cases.

The difference is that one lost 20 percent of its value and the other lost 75 percent, and one has the potential to go to all the way to zero and the other doesn't. And one actually has a very valuable, income producing asset underlying it, and the other has nothing but ether. One is gambling, while the other is investing.

I fully agree however that wasn’t what the focus of my response was. There is tech behind a few coins. Not all of them but a few seem to be decent. Would I invest purely on that? Probably not based on what I’ve seen. This is why I stick to day trading. Easy in, easy out.

Today was great for bchsv holders. Been trading the range all day and making a decent profit.

Somebody is trying to get the perpetual money machine (for some) up and running again...

Orchestrated event. Someone with the tune of around 100m was moving btc around and buying on different exchanges. Planned event, expect to see some violent movement soon.

Shitcoins going up as well. Every group I'm in is freaking out on the gains.

Maybe old news but Coinbase is giving away $50 worth of Stellar Lumen for watching some short videos and sharing to others. $10 worth for watching about 8 minutes of videos and $40 for sharing. Take em up on it and if you don’t believe in the project just convert to another token or cash it out. Pretty good $$ for about 9 minutes of your time

Here’s the link: https://coinbase.com/earn/xlm/invite/k7mj1vds
 
Yes, i know that i could look it up, but would someone explain to me what happened recently where some bitcoins got "hacked" or "lost"?
