With the price of bitcoin nearing $3000, what price did you first buy bitcoin at?
>>
About 1/100th of that.
The person who got me into it got into it when they were literally a few bucks a piece.

I don't feel like I've missed out by not speculating (botting arbs or something) and hoarding, because I made a concious decision not to do so. I do kinda wish I'd got on the mining back in the day.

1,800. Also have ZEC, XVG, CREA and other lesser upstarts. I came in with 60% in February and now have $600.

If you thought that sourgrapes are bad now, wait until blockchain becomes truly mainstream and we'll see a bottleneck of normies rushing to the market buying at ATH a then calling it a scam. I can't wait for all the profits literally doing one operation a day and all your nocoiner tears.

Bought at the 2k dip a week or two ago
Wishing I had put more money into it then, but I will soon. Thinking that it is "at its peak and going to pop soon" is what kept plenty of people, like myself, from buying in at $400.

It never will go mainstream with such huge price fluctuations.

The most attractive currencies are the ones that offer solid wealth preservation through value stability. This irrational price exuberance will not continue without a LOT of future pain.

Wait till everyone wants to convert their Bitcoin back to currency.. You will see exactly why this novel idea is really a bad one.

even if I bought a coin at $1000, I would've only made $2000 so far so I don't feel that bad.

At least I'm not someone who sold all my coins when it was at like $50 or lost it all on mtgox
>>
I'm probably gonna have to pay 3,000 thousand because I'm only recently learning about crypto currency and I've decided to jump on now. Better late than never. This is practically the last chance to get on board before it becomes near impossible to buy in. I heard you only need to own and hold at least 21 of these and within ten years you'll have a fucking fortune worth.
>>
bought the first time when it was about $700 and spent it all on drugs lol. i have been accumulating for a while now but i hold most of my digital assets in STRAT(around 100k USD) for now since i view it as a strong contender to ethereum and i speculate the price to reach $100 / strat before October.

There has been one correction and probably will be another yes, but it always rebounds after. Crypto is immense use while fiat currencies lose value, and normies are starting to learn about it and invest in it. We are starting to leave the "smart money" phase

Never bought any, but I did mine about 100 coins way back in the day when they were worth pennies. I kick myself in the ass every day for losing interest and basically deleting the wallet after their first big crash. "Seems far too volatile to every really take off" I thought. I can't be too mad though, I probably would have sold them all at $100 a coin.

My issue with bitcoin is that it's more like a stock or commodity than it is a currency. And that's not anything to do with bitcoin itself, but rather the fact that it's new and unestablished, and therefore volatile. It's good for hopefully making money off speculation, but I don't think it's a good way to retain wealth, at least right now because its constantly going up and down. Maybe in the future when it stabilizes more.

But the question is, will it ever truly stabilize? Will it ever get enough widespread adoption to achieve this sort of situation? I'm not so sure. Why? Because most people are dumb. Proper handling of BTC is something only a relatively few people do, making sure they keep backups of their wallets and make sure to keep things secured so some amateur hacker doesn't gain access and drain it, etc. Because of the nature of BTC, if you fuck up, there's no recourse. If you lose your wallet or your HDD fails and you don't have a backup or your computer was unprotected and a hacker got in, you're totally screwed and there's nothing you can do about it.

These things shouldn't be problems if you can into computers, but most people do not. There have already been tons of stories of people losing fucktons of money for dumb mistakes. Do you think your boomer parents can rely on this? Do you think anyone other than a small percentage of the country can rely on this? I'd say no. And this is a fundamental limit to the widespread adoption of cryptocurrency.

That and if SHTF and the internet goes down, you don't have access to any of your wealth.

I don't know how many, it's probably over 10,000 by now. Anyone can create a new cyprocurrency. It's marketting that determines whether it takes off (see: Dogecoin and Pepecoin)

You don't when it was first introduced mining was relatively easy but not wholly lucrative as it wasn't widespread. The time and processing power required to mine has increased rapidly. There are a finite number of bitcoins in existence. The more that are mined the harder and longer it becomes to mine new bitcoins in basic terms.
The miners are essentially mining 'blocks'. Hence the name blockchain. Finding a block gives a reward in a number of bitcoin. But that reward is halving every year or few years or something like that so it becomes less viable. There are only 21 million bitcoins in existence so once they have all be given out to those who have mined a block there will be no future mining.
>>
>>128732715
Follow on...
There will still be a need for miners to conduct transactions by writing these transactions to the blockchain - these miners get 'tipped' for doing this.

there was the news in 2014 that that bloke wqho wrote a paper on encryption remembered he had bitcoins from 2009.

he made like 800K and bought a flat in Norway or some shit. everyone remembers it because it was a "wtf is bitcoin and why didnt I get in on it". They then looked, decieded it was too much hassle and forgot aboit it.

Then last month Hackers took over all the computers like the NHS and the like and demanded payment in bitcoin which at the time was then about £1400 or something.

People thought.. hang on, if Id got in on that in 2014 id have XXXX now. and so on, so now the price is increasing and because its so high a lot of people are buying into alt coins/shitcoins.

I bought some doge for $6 in 2014 as i cba to do the bitcoin thing and it was funny. They are worth £50 now

The thing about charts like this is that it's easy to think in terms of hindsight.

Whenever I think about investing, I remind myself to take any chart like this one, and cover the right hand side, then slowly uncover it and say "buy", or "sell", and see how well I can actually predict the future.

Of course you have to knock yourself in the head with a hammer so that you forget what the chart looks like, but the basic premise holds. If I had bought bitcoins at 1 penny or 100 dollars, I would have dumped as soon as I made a decent profit. Anybody who thinks they could have invested 1000 way back when and would wait to cash out at 1 million is delusional, or so wealthy already that it would not matter.

I got all those things covered already friendo

I just dont have the $3k currently for 1 piece of bitcoin, maybe if it was still a meme currency at 10c a pop but that's not happening anymore.

I can afford $50 maybe $100 tops right now per month to throw in the bin. I wanna try my chances with all this cryptocoin stuff you guys are shilling on this site non-stop. If I make a few extra bucks in 2 years, cool. If I get jewed and lose them all oh well that's fine too i was planning to throw them away anyway.

I'll look around for some cheap memecoins I can throw some dollarinos on. Any suggestions?

Interesting. I heard talk that an esports cafe (lol) in my town plans on installing an atm like this that can also be used to buy btc.
My main concern with crypto is cashing out. I hear everyone saying that it's "easy to sell" but noone actually says how the fuck they sold it.
As of right now the number of online servies that accept crypto are limited so there aren't many opportunities to spend your accumulated wealth.
It's also really scary that early birds who got on the buttcoin train when it was cheap, can just control the market at whim.

The price of Bitcoin should be 0. It has no value because it serves no purpose to society. Nobody trades in it, nobody stores value because it fluctuates too much. It's only purpose is speculation. It's a bubble, more like a mania really. Eventually it will crash to 0 and it will only be mentioned in economic textbooks.

Moreover it's price has been manipulated by rich people that invested into the exchanges. I've been monitoring the price since it was 20$. At around 1000 it crashed and someone controlled its descent. For the most of 2016 it had suspiciously low volatility. So people that probably held a lot of Bitcoin bought more to not let it depreciate.

If you think that it will go to 4000 ask yourself why not 100000. Or 1 million or 1 trillion. There are no fundamentals because it has no value. So I can't tell you how high it will fly because it depends on human stupidity. It's a Ponzi scheme run by people that know exactly what they're doing. It's also dependent on the Chinese who aren't allowed to invest their money oversees or their stock market. Once the Chinese start withdrawing their money it could be quite the catalyst for a Bitcoin crash.

Normally this kind of stupidity I could only witness on reddit but I guess a large part of 4chan is just as idiotic. I remember when redditors were trying to convince legit businesses to accept Bitcoin. They'd harass them until some gave in. But after some time they all stopped accepting it because nobody was buying with Bitcoin. It's just for speculation. It's so hard to buy and sell Bitcoin too. Too volatile for businesses to mess with it. Literally only used for illegal dealings.

Can someone explain to me how this isn't a textbook bubble? I'm willing to listen.

From what I know there are hundreds of virtual coins, you can't perform big cash outs, you can't settle debt with it, you can't pay your taxes with it, 99,9 of businesses around the world don't accept it, so whats going on? It just looks so fishy.

Is this just a speculation scheme? I mean if some country for example Greece went nuts and started accepting it as legal tender to settle debt, pay taxes or buy beer it would be backed up with SOMETHING, but right now it isn't, not even by thin air. Anyway, from my experience, if this ends up being the mother of all bubbles better stay close to the stem of the bubble which is Bitcoin, it's the one that will receive the smallest hit.

Question for /biz/fags. With most currencies, stocks, commodities, etc you can speculate, but speculation is done based on how you view the market. For example, a bunch of people panick-selling GBP after brexit, which then went back up when people calmed down. Or you can speculate on a stock based on the market for a particular good/service or if you think a company's new product will take off, or whatever.

But with bitcoin... it's completely independent from anything else. Value isn't tied to perceived value of any commodity or company or government. It's uncharted territory, AFAIK. What's stopping accelerated exponential growth from crashing back down if there's no "reality pulling it back in" effect?

I'm not a /biz/fag so I'm most definitely not explaining what I mean properly.

Fun story for you. I got into the bitcoin 'thing' early, when mining actually produced a good amount of coins. I had a sweet setup, and a good amount of coins in my wallet.

Back then I thought it was a fad, and lost interest. Started playing games instead of mining, slowly forgot about my wallet. fast forward to when bitcoin went stupid. I stripped harddrives, cloned them, checked every USB drive.....wallet, gone. How much did I have (do I have), at the last count approx 800 bitcoins.

$2.3 million, fucking lost because i'm a retard. I can't afford to keep my car on the road, and I lost all that money. Fuck you, fuck bitcoin, fuck life.

You need to register yourself in an btc exchange, the more reputable being Bitstamp or Coinbase, for example. After they verify you, you transfer your money there, and when they arrive, you buy bitcoin with that money.

After this, the most critical step is: Don't touch it for a few years, just hold them.

But if you need like 10000 plus cash outs in person is the option only deal with people that have over 5 or more trades and a real name and id verification on the site.

I don't know, I don't think its erased. It must still exist, I just can't access it. When we moved house I stripped every PC carcass I had of HD's, collected up every USB and portable drive I had, and scoured them.

Of course they pay it out. It's how no coiner try to cope. In their mind, Bitcoin is Monopoly money that can't be spent or converted back to Fiat.

Right. If I were to fully invest in BTC, I'd basically use BTC as my savings account, and USD as my checking account. If I want to buy something, I'd move some BTC over to USD and then pay for it that way through the traditional means.

Or if I felt there was an impending crash/shtf, I'd spend that bitcoin on gold bars.

If you have thousands of Bitcoins, you are only wealthy on paper, because there is no way you will be getting millions of dollars in actual currency. The hope is one day you will be able to buy items using Bitcoin, but that will never happen.

This is the same way with gold. When gold goes to the moon, it becomes worthless, because you are likely buying and selling at gunpoint. So the price of everything is, "how much you got?".

You'd only actually become a millionaire if you actually sold them. Good luck selling 15k bitcoins for $3000 each.

The people making money of bitcoin are not the people buying and selling bitcoin, but the people providing the various services and tools.
>>
Anyone who can't see this is a bubble is fooling themselves. I'm not saying bitcoin doesn't have potential to grow but it's gone up way too fast in too little time for this to be sustainable.

What is it even used for? Because if it's not used to trade for any real goods this is essentially tulip mania all over again.

The idea behind any market is that items are worth as much as people are willing to pay for them. If btc jumps to 10k it's because the market is willing to pay 10k per coin. Finding buyers is by definition never hard. It's just a matter of what price will you be able or willing to sell at. This is true for any stock or commodity

No, it isn't. It is good enough for me that I can exchange it for USD almost immediately (on BTC exchange). Then I can buy any goods with that exchanged USD. There is just an intermediary step.

Stocks are far more liquid than Bitcoin. If you think you can cash out on thousands of Bitcoins before it crashes, you are kidding yourself.

The real problem with Bitcoin is when it gets to $5000, and everyone tries to get out at once, the price will go to less than $100 in 12 hours.

>That's every Bitcoin owner really.

People sorry, but dont be stupid. Seriously stop this shit. You are laughable.

You can access your bitcoin within 24 hours: you sell it on bitcoin exchange and then send the USD to your bank account. It takes about 1 day. Don't lie that you can't access it, it is not true.

Bitcoin is the ultimate fiat currency and this is the electronic version of the Tulip Bubble.

Sorry that's not how money works. If your money isn't backed by anything it's worthless. Currency is backed generally by the production of the country associated with it. Bitcoin as far as I'm aware is backed by illegal online purchases so unless those are getting more and more frequent this price increase is literally just a speculation bubble.

You already can't mine it, you would need to invest 100k's usd in mining equipment (hardware).

Bitcoin since around 2014 works in a way, that you buy it with your normal money, usually in the so-called bitcoin exchange, and then if you are clever, you just hold your bitcoins.

Bitcoin is literally just another speculation bubble to jew plebs.
Bitcoin niggers will always advertise to retards in order to push the prices to then sell it when it peaks, before plebs realize their bitcoins are worth nothing because the market crashed.
Then Bitcoin niggers will buy the plebs Bitcoins when they are worth nothing to repeat the cycle.

Chinks are heavily invested in this scheme and will make the bubble burst, whenever they feel like it.

Can't you fools see these 'alt-coins' are the death throws of capitalism?

You are digging your own grave. Pay your taxes.
>>
>>128742414
Here's my question though. Most speculation bubbles are based in something real. Commodities, stocks, and fiat currency are all based in the perceived value of those goods, companies, and gov'ts. But with BTC, there is nothing. So how can a bubble "burst" if there's no needle to pop the bubble if there's nothing to keep it "grounded in reality"

it's not like normal speculation, because normal speculation works by looking at current events/trends and trying to predict based on that. but BTC is divorced from everything else. So what could possibly trigger a bubble to pop?

>>
>>128741492
You have no idea what a bubble is do you. I converted my bitcoin to drugs, because there was no way to get it out when the price was falling.

This is the problem with crypto currencies, there is massive liquidity when the price is climbing, virtually zero when crashing.

>>128742414

So it's my fault that you're a degenerate with weak hands? Markets correct as btc will as soon as it hits 3k, jumps to probably 3500 then drops to around 2k for a while only to climb back up.
>>
>>128742812
Well, the other possible reason is that large portions of the bitcoin market are owned by a small handful of people. If any one of these guys who owns a fuckton of BTC decides to dump it, the whole market tanks.

>This is the problem with crypto currencies, there is massive liquidity when the price is climbing, virtually zero when crashing.

But so far, it never happened that the price crashed, and then did not recover. So when this happens, you can just wait and don't sell, the price climbs up back eventually.
