Apparently this is partly due to the infamous Russian conman behind the MMM ponzi scheme introducing bitcoin into African nations:

I think it's a unique opportunity to find people being very against something that will turn out quite different than they are predicting. It sure hasn't gone the way the last few years of coin threads would lead you to believe, and it's still real early days.

I'm trying to fully document the extent of people's wrong beliefs and how they will change over time, but in a curious turn, that's something that people also go out of their way to avoid.

And you've clearly failed at the sake of your own sanity and credibility.

Just let it go. It's healthier for you.

The weirdest thing is watching the way stuff gets made up in this thread. Let's revisit my stance:
"Bitcoins are not a scam, trade them if you want"

<buttcoin crew>
"Ah he's saying they can only go up, lmao"

Remember folks, when the price of bitcoin goes up, its a scam and its a speculative bubble. Plenty of charts lately to enjoy ;) When the price of bitcoin goes down, its a scam and its crashing down. When one points out that its a speculative, volatile currency, well, apparently the inherent volatility is a sign of it being a scam too.

Summary version:
bitcoin goes up = "bitcoin faithful bubble lmao it can only go up lmao" <posts charts of gains>
bitcoin goes down = "ahahaha its crashing just like we predicted"

I find this remarkably dumb, are you guys this dumb or just doing it for effect?? I'm expecting the latter just curious here.

I think a good approach is Occam's razor.

There are 1334 cryptocurrencies on https://coinmarketcap.com...
Are they all scams or unknowingly building something worthless?

Many of them have websites with pictures of the people who are part of the organization/company...
Are these all fake or are in on the scam?

Many of them are on github and have the source code/usage examples/templates/api docs posted there or on on the website...
Are these all fake or useless?

I'm sure some of these are scams but I have a hard time believing it's all a big facade or grand conspiracy.


I wonder what the 1337th coin will be.

Following an undercover bust of an underground crime network, Bulgaria has seized enough Bitcoin to settle a fifth of its national debt.

According to ZeroHedge, the Bulgarian crime enforcement agency and the Southeast European Law Enforcement Center caught 23 Bulgarian criminals and confiscated a total of 213,519 Bitcoins - roughly valued at $3.5 bln.

I don't know about average, but that's the fee you've gotta pay if you want to see your transaction go through in any reasonable amount of time.

Right, better way of saying it is "40 dollars is the average transaction fee if you want your transaction to clear faster"

which exchange was it where months/years after a "hack" they revealed that they had "found" like a $100000 in bitcoins? like they were sweeping up after a robbery and found a burlap sack with a bitcoin logo on it and not like someone else in the bitcoin community connected them with use of a wallet of some of the supposedly stolen coins

I prefer johnnyissocoolandtommyissolamecoins but clownpeniscoins are also a good name
