$240 for that photo. Holy lol.

I mean, if you put $1000 into bitcoin and wait a couple days you could easily find $240 in your profits. I don't know why you would want to though, when you could instead take that money + another $1000 and buy more bitcoin for even more free money.

Why hasn't ghosTTy posted in a week? I need to be told how this is good for BTC.

I've seen hammy sammies post a bunch in the video games forum but he doesn't post much here these days either. I guess he's too busy buying games after he took his own advice and shorted bitcoin when everyone was saying it was bound to drop.

I wonder what mental gymnastics one would have to go through to decide that Bitcoin was intrinsically valued? Like, gold is highly valued because it's both rare and useful as a material to make things out of. It looks pretty, conducts energy really well, and is extremely malleable and resistant to corrosion. It seems the author understands that this is important as he lists being desired/valued but never really delves into why a random hash on a computer hard drive would have any recognized, verifiable value to anybody like an actual real material like gold does.

Edit:. Also non-reproducible for a thing you can literally copy & paste. I mean, yeah, the system won't let you spend your copies but you sure as poo poo can make as many copies of your random hash as you want.

a number that go up is innately valuable imho

make it so the bitcoin transfer is a physical one but the two exchangers are cyborgs and one of them has a usb drive implanted onto his dick and the other one's usb port is in his rear end in a top hat.

lol literally millions of dollars in bitcoins were "lost" because they were parked in bitcoin trading/banking services that turned out to be scams and the owners of these bitcoins walked away* with nothing because anti-fraud measures are antithetical to the money of the future!

lol jk they just put the rest of their life savings into different bitcoin services because losing everything to fraud is an acceptable risk that wouldn't happen if this wasn't such a hot commodity!

LMAO Ham Sandwiches you loving moron: speculation is gambling. Zaurg ruined himself because he has the sense of a gambler and put everything he had into a high-risk/high-reward scenario. You can make money by speculating. People do it all the time. But it's not repeatable, and telling someone to speculate needs to come with the same asterisk any other gambling scenario comes with: don't spend more than you're comfortable losing.

why are idiots still investing in bitcoins now anyway? It's pretty obvious at this point that they are going to be obsolete in a few years after someone uses the technology to develop bitbills, which will do the same thing but be worth more.

The NFT doesn't replace any of the things Bandcamp does, though, it simply adds yet another service requiring an outside middleman who'll want their own cut on top of the existing ones. But while, say, Paypal adds a significant convenience and accessibility factor that means more sales in the end, I'm not clear at all on what NFTs would contribute in exchange.
