There's damning something with faint praise, then there's just making GBS threads all over it. I can't quite decide which this is.

Still say a ton of bitcoin scams run on bitcoiners being desperate to actually use their bitcoins for something

you could just withdraw them through any number of huge exchanges

i've never held bitcoin as an investment or anything but the idea that you can't easily withdraw bitcoin is like from 2008 or something

You can easily withdraw if you send in ID making it completely not anonymous and exchanges still close withdrawals when it benefits them.

The Drug Dealer's Dilemma: if you try to withdraw through a legitimate exchange that does KYC/AML then you connect the proceeds of your criminal enterprise to you but any exchange that doesn't do KYC/AML knows their customers are all criminals, so they'll block any large withdrawals and pretend they give a poo poo about KYC/AML to steal their money.

That's The Bitcoiner's Baghodl.

The drug dealers have figured out that you can go bitcoin -> Etherium -> monero - > dogecoin -> payout and only eat like 20% in fees, as long as each transaction is on a different exchange and and and and.

Point is e-currency is to facilitate crime, chronic gamblers, and ghosttty's 17 split personalities.

i'm not saying that never happens but withdrawals through bitcoin are pretty standard now for anyone playing poker in the US and a lot of other places and I've never heard of anyone having any trouble withdrawing from places like coinbase from people who use it regularly including myself, not to hold bitcoin as an investment but just for transfers

Yeah bitcoin is great if you get it and dump it right away.

I do not like how long coinbase makes you wait though esp. with how hosed up the market can be.

$1 today is $0.75 tomorrow or $1.25 who knows!

reminded of how they eventually took the gambling out of Pokemon because it turns out Europe and Australia have enough gambling problems without getting kids started on it early. And 51 International Games is rated M here because of the poker and blackjack.

I hear about even Coinbase giving trouble with fiat withdrawals really quite a lot. One, they don't give a poo poo about customers because they don't have to. Two, the banks see incoming from "Coinbase" and are (correctly) immediately suspicious. That second is the killer - banks really don't want to risk touching this crypto poo poo.

So your argument is the price of bitcoin is a the direct function of halving(scarcity) and adoption, market conditions, or usefulness of bitcoin are irrelevant? Also please add a line for tethers printed for completeness.

I had an account with some online bank (chime) that I put $400 into, I connected it to my coinbase account and they immediately closed the account with no reason given. It took over a month for them to mail me a check with the remaining balance. They really don't gently caress around with crypto stuff. Luckily my roommate/landlord sympathized with my situation and gave me more time to pay the rent. I would have been hosed otherwise.

You keep showing all these charts showing how bitcoin is going up uP UP.

When are you going to take advantage of it? Like are you looking to buy a house eventually? A car? Or for retirement?

Or do you intend to keep your supposed gains entirely theoretical and eventually die content in the knowledge that "arbitrary number was big"?
