I just hope I don't see another post in 2-years saying you're going to take a position when each coin is trading @ $100k

The bear market is over, cashing out at the bottom is something of an understatement.

One reason I'm extracting mine from the exchanges is there is no transparency about what you catually have.
For all I know they might be leveraging them 20 times and hoping noone draws the cash.

I'd prefer keeping them in my own wallet, but the transfer rates are enormous, and the trading value between BTC and Fiat are also terrible.

It's been a fun ride. I've made a few grand, but I'm out.

The whole thing is a giant scam consisting of different scams on many levels - the most common is certainly Ponzi scheme, which should be assumed all “exchanges” are engaging into

I won’t buy this tulip regardless of the price - each transaction is likely involving proceeds of crime and/or money laundering, some include terrorist financing

But you keep doing it scooty

And so do you. So do you with your desperate attempts to discredit new technology with unproven activities that already occur or a far larger scale with traditional currencies. Where is your protest for the abuse of Fiat? One wonders for what original reasons you put so much energy into discrediting change for the betterment of all.

I despise fraudsters, that’s the reason.

What happens here is centuries old - fraud, particularly appalling as it’s done under the cover of “new technology”, sickening really that this is allowed to happen.

It’s particularly outrageous that cryptotulips are enabling cybercrime that wasn’t possible before on this scale, for that reason alone cryptotulips should be banned

For once, Pooper is correct IMHO.

People are searching about BTC again. I would believe now is a good time to buy, but be prepared to dump after a profit is made...

Where there's an opportunity to make money the scammers, fraudsters, and criminals will find a way. Technology isn't the problem, just another means to their end.

At least with most scamcoins there is a trail for crime investigation units to find and follow. Even with bitcoin if they can prove who owns a wallet then all the transactions are there as evidence against the perp. Can't say that for cash transactions.

So the authorities should be welcoming and encouraging the move to digital currency and bringing regulation and oversight to the current wild west. It also aids government prevalence for magicking money out of the air in the form of typing some new amounts into central bank computers, also refered to as 'printing' or 'quantitative easing'.

Play the game, know the rules, know when to walk away.

Isn't it time you changed the record...or turned the player off? Fair enough you have your opinion...but there are few on this thread who really care about it. We are/were in this thread to try and discuss the topic constructively. If the whole crypto thing gets banned (good luck with that btw) or does turn out to be a big scam then by all means come back with a big "I TOLD YOU SO" but until then....

I just bought a Ledger Nano S for my next foray into Lambo ownership

He needs it, he's in this thread and others and making new ones just to argue on the Internet. Doesn't matter what the topic is. The kind thing would be to just let him have it as his thing.
