I legit want to buy some Bitcoin but I’ll wait till it’s dropped back to 40 or 30k. Not a lot mind you, like $500-$1000 bucks I assume I’ll lose, and then if I double or triple my money I’ll sell.

Maybe he, like a lot of Bitcoin people, hope they can Bitcoin their way out of credible allegations of gross poo poo. But then, of course, they just use their bitcoins to pay for more gross poo poo (see John McAfee)

The funniest thing in buttcoin history was the guy shittalking people on buttcoin for being dumb poor nocoiners and how he was a crypto billionaire and someone checked his post history and less than 3 hours before they’d posted that he’d made a post on a self repair subreddit asking how to fix a 200 dollar tv he was having problems with because he was too poor to get a new one or get it fixed. Crypto truely is for people who want to LARP being millionaires lmao.

I thought it would be empty but the casino was absolutely packed, had to wait half an hour to get on a 2/5 NL table. I sit down and see a guy wearing a Thing 1 Thing 2 cat in the hat shirt. I say nice shirt or something like that and the guy just glares at me. A few hands go by and I bully the table to go up to about 50 bucks from my starting 200. Like literally only three or four hands. Then on the next hand there's a three bet under the gun by the shirt guy, I get a few callers ahead of me and I call with 9/7 suited. Flop comes out with a 10/8 of the suit, shirt guy splurges all in with about 200 bucks, he gets a few folds and a call, so I say gently caress it and shove too. He flips pocket aces, other guy flips some trash hand like K/10 or something like that, and I flip 9/7. Dealer promptly flips over the 6 to give me a straight flush and the guy picks up the aces and whips them at me then swipes at the chips in the pot to send some of them flying too. Table gets all flustered, security comes over and starts escorting him out. He turns to me and yells 'nice loving shirt'.

I swear I have the most on-the-nose stereotypical trope of 'almost buying back when' bitcoin story. It was 2010. I had just moved out of home and into a flat and I was sitting with my fellow 20 year old idiots drinking wine and talking absolute bollocks. I was trying to explain this bitcoin thing and how I might just buy $1000 worth right now and hold on to it in case it blows up. I was literally, literally hovering my hand over the laptop joking with my friends how this decision will change my life forever. And in the end I didn't spend the money on bitcoin in 2010 when it was... it must have been only a few cents back then. "$1,000 Invested in Bitcoin in 2010 is Worth $287.5 Million Today (as of the time of this writing Dec 24, 2020 )" lol lmao

Sick of hearing people complain about not getting into Bitcoin earlier, like it was just a thing you could easily buy without getting scammed. “If only I had used a “legitimate” exchange to purchase some bitcoins 15 years ago (mt gox anyone? Lol). I definitely would have held onto those bitcoins when they doubled in price and then doubled in price and then doubled in price and then doubled in price 20 more times. I also definitely wouldn’t have been hacked, lost them, or fell for one of the billion phishing attempts people have been falling for. I also definitely wouldn’t have fallen for a Bitcoin scam during that entire time, even though the Venn diagram of people buying Bitcoin early on and being easy marks for scammers was basically a circle.” The people who are Bitcoin rich were almost assuredly already going to be rich like a tech person, or are just incredibly stupid. Only a stupid person would sit on something they bought for a dollar and then not sell it when it’s worth $10, $100, $1000, and also $10000. It’s really not luck, because that mentality is absolutely the dumbest thing you could do. I’d argue luck is something other than “making the absolutely dumbest decision over and over and ending up with some money as a result”. You go to a casino and a guy bets his entire credit card on black, he’s dumb. He wins and doubles his money, he’s still dumb but lucky. He bets all of his money on black again, even dumber but still lucky. He does it again, EVEN DUMBER but still lucky. Once he’s done it 30 times everyone at the table just thinks he’s the absolutely dumbest dude alive even though he has millions of chips. That’s Bitcoin. The smartest person in the early days of Apple computers was that guy who sold his third of the company or whatever for $1000 because it was almost guaranteed he’d otherwise not get any money back. He made the right decision and, given the evidence available at the time, he’d do it again. I would too. It’s unreasonable to think that people with Bitcoin money are smarter or more financially capable than anyone else in the entire financial sector, insurance salesmen especially. They didn’t see something everyone else didn’t, they just have a poop emoji instead of a brain and randomly the financial sector selected for the poop emoji instead of a brain (for a bit). But the problem is, they still have a poop emoji for a brain so what do you think will happen next? The cruelest thing you could wish is for someone to have been into Bitcoin early on, because only the dumbest people would have done so and they would be cursed with dumbbrain. Except for people who bought Bitcoin because they were drunk or whatever and it was $10, and then forgot about it like a few goons did here.

I think back then it was the same situation as trading in, like, Diablo 1. I put my poo poo over here on the floor and walk away, you put your poo poo on the floor and walk away. Then I go for yours and you go for mine. Okay ready? Go! *quickly grabs my own poo poo and tries to grab his before he can grab his* This was how early Bitcoin worked. you would have had more transactional security with a trade window in a video game.
