When did you realize that the skill of sifting through 4chan

it's true, 4chan, for all the BS, is the best source for info on the web. It's always ahead of the culture.
I got into bitcoin and ethereum because of 4chan, and that alone has paid off my mortgage.

>>1970714
congrats on the mortgage paid off, anon
BS exists anywhere - seeing order from chaos is the best skill

>>1970706
Well said. The ability to sift through information, in the fucking information age is an extremely important skill to have.

Most people try to automate this by going on Reddit and having hivemind information fed to them, or watching news and having (((important information))) fed to them.

There are flaws in both of these traditional methods, because although hiveminded information can be good for certain niches (for example getting a good value computer monitor), it can be abysmally bad for general life advice (look at these statistics, get into debt, and become a wageslave like the rest of us).

Information from the news media is an open channel to the interests of the company & contributors, and in 99% of cases is a waste of time that doesn't affect your life.

4chan however is filled with a lot of shit, but the content I view is unrestricted, so I can find what applies to my predicaments/situation and apply it accordingly.

>>1970822
Admitting the limits of your understanding already puts you leaps and bounds ahead of most.

>>1970706

I unironically agree and think that 4chan and eight chan have improved my life inmensely in many aspects.

>>1970763
Only true CAINS are retards, you impostor

>>1970706
I agree.

/fit/ helped get me in great shape
/tv/ got me into movies and cinematography
/r9k/ gave me a place to vent and redpilled me on women
/biz/ gave me insider trading tips and tripled my money

It's the best site in the world if you know what to look for.

Feel the same.
I kinda thought crypto was a bit of scam as of late, like how can you lose? Reading what people post and shill and realizing that people do often lose, that was an eye opener.

Lots of folks are getting cucked by the bitbeans, PIVX, 420 coins, etc. I feel like they believe in it enough that they don't want to admit here that they've been fucked. That there is still hope that it will go back up.

>>1970763
really activates the almonds

>>1970961
A lot of people are stupid as fuck, especially on this board. These faggots go crazy every time there's a minor price spike or price drop in a crypto, and panic sell/buy before whining later about how /biz/ lied to them

>>1970706
Definitely true. I was introduced to 4chan back in my something awful days and have seen it morph into what it is today.

This site has always had an equal share of bad and good and the good is very useful. It's the anonymity that makes it so. People don't post shit that will get community approval because that's totally worthless, allows for dissenting opinions.

That being said, /pol/ is absolute shit.

Is there any way to make money online through automation? Some dire, boring tasks which can be done by an user script instead?

>>1970961
Extreme FOMO. Instead of waiting until something actually promising showing up and doing a little research some bagholder posts $SHIT WILL MOON AT 1488 GMT and retards buy their bags because they don't want to miss out.

>>1970706
U fucking faggot crypto shills.... sage

>>1971003
i can agree that pol is getting shittier as time goes on, it reminds me of the death of /b/ back around 2014ish i think.
If anything, I can appreciate the shillspotting skills, meme magic, and wikileaks redpilling pol gave me
Ill never forget posting magic frog memes on election night, when I had a midterm the day after. I remember making a thread that night it didnt even last 5 mins before it fell off of the last page

So now ur a college dropout who goes to /pol/
, trades crypto all day for income, and works on his aquarium in his spare time "imposing his will on reality" and "thanks" to 4chan? LOL. It's a cambodian anime basket weaving board senpai and everyone knows this where literally every Christmas for the last 5 years they've posted nothing but child porn and it's own founder got cucked for some quick e-poontang and sold everyone else out shortly after to go work for as a wage-slave for a multinational corporation. Take that for what it is I've been here a long time too but read a book holy crap you said yourself this place is mostly garbage and shill-posting (which it literally is)

Good for a laugh and a few tips if u get lucky , but that same time spent actually bettering yourself would give you 500x more results...period....

DESU PIVX isn't a shit coin.

And I'm not saying it's gonna moon right this second but...

>This


The devs are actively pushing for it to be added and a bunch of shitcoins, ACTUAL shitcoins just got removed.

Not saying it's mooning at a certain time or anything but you will regret not having PIVX.

Would you tell your past self to never go to 4chan?

>>1971047
lol fuckoff you literally took my post as trading and aquarium are the highlights of my life? Its just some info that i took from a somalian stone trading forum. I was unable to change my major to STEM due to some policy so the best option was for me to get out.

There's lots of trading robots, just from forex markets there are EAs(expert advisors) that do autotrades. Most are pretty shit, but there are companies out there doing a fairly good job like automatafx, etc. Robots that trade for you. There's a danger of 'overfitting' trading robots, where they make a robot that will get great results in a backtest but that's because it got used to the old data, and the future usage will show much shittier results.

I've made 6k profits just from buying into memecoins that /biz/ told me to invest into

So 267k gain / 5k loss, pretty good overall desu.

how much did you bet on the cheeto winning

After a few days spent on /biz/ (my brain hurts due to having to sifle through all the crap) and doing my own research I decided to put 100 dollars each in bitcoin, eth and posw (wanted more but it's too fucking scammy). Unlikely that all 3 of them fall, especially long term, and 100$ isn't that much.

>>1975931

This euphoric vague sense of having your shit life improved while it objectively stays shit, for reasons that no clear-thinking person can comprehend, is extremely reddit-ish. In particular the sense of having access to special information that is publicly available and the inherent inability to recognize that other people probably have inner workings of similar complexity to your own. You're not a souvereign individual capable of free thought in a world of sheep. You're following what teenagers construe in their minds, upvoted through "you"s and relentless bumping that mostly people without a steady employment can afford.
Oh yeah and scamming people with dropshipping through alibaba is not worth more than learning a skill that sustains society.
