Has there been any level of self-awareness from the buttcoiners- having watched people flock to the toilet paper standard- about how easy it is to get people to buy into a pointless and idiotic principal by convincing them that when the dust settles they'll be the king of the hill because they hoarded "X" ?

e; It's a rhetorical question obviously but an interesting one nonetheless

No bc they're the ones doing the TP hoarding thinking in the true libertarian style that they will be able to sell it on for a profit when society collapses

bitcoin having a goddamned heart attack at the slightest inclination of societal trouble really seems like it would deflate the whole turbo-weirdo libertarian fantasy of bitcoin being the post-apocalyptic world currency, huh

I'm guessing right now the floor is 5k. That drop to 4k was probably a bit of an aberration.

What is the # for when it is not profitable to do mining? Is it still 3k?

Unfortunately due to the stupidity and greed to bitcoiners, there is no way it will crash super hard. If it drops to 3000 people will go crazy buying the dip. The same for 2000, 1500, 1000, 500 and so on. And even more people will buy those lower amounts. It's going to take a while for it to normalize at zero which is where it should be.

On the other hand, a lot of those idiots will have lost their shirts by the time it is super low so may not be able to buy anything any more.

One can only hope.
