Yet here you are arguing over pointless things. |
In your opinion, with your pointless post, picking up on an opinion you see as pointless.
On a thread about Bitcoin, I didn't realise only pro Bitcoin fanbois were allowed an opinion. Sorry for having a negative opinion of a currency most of us only ever get asked to use, when being scammed by Ransomware shitheads.
What's it worth now, you know since all the papers went mad over it in December? Oh, yes, around half the value it was only 2 months ago.
Fill your boots, but don't expect everyone to think it's awesome. A currency for Geeks and criminals. Yey.. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

Around half you say?

Common sense not to invest you say? If you consider your decision not to invest in bitcoin over the last 5 years that this thread has been active, common sense, then I feel bad for anyone that takes any advice from you.
Of course anyone that invested in Bitcoin in December was being a tad foolish if they thought they would be insta-rich, but rest assured they will make their money within the next 12 months. Meanwhile, you can moan about how criminals use it and you can moan about how there are going to be regulations placed on it, but you can be sure that I can never lose money on my investment, along with anyone that purchased some when they were just a few hundred each. Yes we have some fan boys here, and rightly so. I don't go spoiling your race hate threads, so please don't come here with your 'I hate anything new' attitude, as we here are lovers of change and of the new. ____________________ struan80 - I'll go first - satisfied tick 1 |

Not if they cashed out at $20K. Those who bought in then might be feeling a touch clowny.

They could be. Or they could have lost their wallets, realised their mistake, drunk themselves blind on meths, then stepped in front of the 3:15 from Cheltenham Spa.

Yep, around half since the papers were bigging it up the week before Christmas.
Then take off the cost of turning cash into BTC and the fees for converting it back to proper money and you can whack off another 20% or so. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

A documentary on the TV where a couple transferred £100 into Bitcoin and set abut trying to spend it. I'm sure they lost 10% each way converting it to and from Bitcoin.
Ah, yes, £10 fee each way = 10%. Here, take a look at my anus....

They really fucked up if they paid 10% fees each time.
Current bitcoin price: £7360.30
On localbitcoins.com you can buy £100 worth at the exchange rate of £7,526.62 per BTC.
So that's a markup of 2.21%
Now we've got the 0.01328618 bitcoins for £100 which can be sold at the exchange rate of £7,218.75 / BTC which leaves us with £95.91
Buying or selling on localbitscoins.com won't give you the best prices but it's one of the quickest and simplest. |

Ok I had a look and that says that deposits are £5 and Withdrawals are £10. That's not 10% fees each way. That's a set fee.
So If I withdraw £4000, I pay £10. Nice!
Anyhow, you are using a weird way to explain how shit it all is.
Who is going to just buy £100 of a currency only to convert it back to ponds? Of course it would be costly.
Try buying £100 of Euros and then converting them back to Ponds. Do you think there will be less or more than £85 left?
Does this mean Euros are shite?
People buying a currency for the reason of making money are morons. ____________________ struan80 - I'll go first - satisfied tick 1 |

I suppose the point I'm making is the media hype pre Christmas has made a lot of people lose a lot of money, very quickly.
Bitcoin was all over the media and people who should have known better thought they were jumping on the gravy train. Many have had a short, sharp, shock. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

Christmas bitcoin investors will only lose out if they've sold up rather than waiting for the price to rise again. |

The Venezuela 'Petro' coin is absolutely hilarious
Sounds like something from a comic book, or a Thunderbirds narrative or something. Oil-based national economy invents a coin and calls it 'Petro'. How can anyone take this level of childish inventiveness seriously
Also @Pjay will you stop acting as if your own success due to early entry to the cryptoPonz means the whole thing is obviously a great idea for everyone and the planet. Screams of blind "I made some money" arrogance masked as industry-level finance knowledge. You would most certainly have a different attitude if you weren't one of the cash-money winners in all this. Think about that for a while. |

Well to make a profit they need to wait until the price is higher than what they bought in at.
I've no idea what people who bought in through the facebook ads have actually got to show for their money but I'm guessing they don't have their own wallet with the bitcoins in.
The drop in price wasn't a surprise for anyone who did a bit of homework instead of just blindly trusting facebook ads which went on about 5,000% increase in value, blah blah blah, etc etc etc. |

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 6 years, 62 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
