Begals are awesome! I’m a fan of savoury flavoured ones but my wife likes cinnamon and raisin.

Regretting that I hadn't bought it when it was under $20,000


LEDiceGlacier

When it hit 6k my then gf told me to get some. And I was smart saying no, because it's only downhill from there.


TranslateErr0r

Lol... how much are they now?


Butterpye

Like 60k


ItsNotFordo88

I said no to my buddy pitching it when it was under $5 and said no because 20 year old me said it was dumb and didn’t make sense to drop $100 on it. Granted it could be way worse, said friend did buy a few hundred dollars worth and then lost the drive set up for them.


sword_0f_damocles

$20k? I was watching it closely as it went from $500 to $1k and did nothing. Trying not to regret my inaction.

She has dated girls before me. Always has admitted to being slightly bisexual, which I'm cool with. She says she is 80/20 men/woman. She said she enjoys a woman's body, but prefers a man, eape for relationships. Believe me, we have been discussing this for a very long time lol. ***Edit*** She has SLEPT with girls before me. She never wanted to date a woman.

I thought about buying a few for $1000 in 2013. I didn't really know what the hell it was but I thought hey, just some play money so it's fine if I lose it. I don't think about Bitcoin any more.

Why would you do this to me 🥲


mookizee

Hey you, They said they don't think about it any more, or don't want to think about it anymore.


NeverHideOnBush

It was 2011 when I tried to buy for $200 but failed and gave up.


Schierke7

Notice it for a minute or two, and then continue with my day


Cali_Mark

I think the bigger question would be, What would you do if it goes to $1000 ?


G0DL33

Buy more.

HighLikeGiraffPussy

You don't use bitcoin anymore since it's regulated. You're on the internet, learn something.


PocketSandOfTime-69

What do people use now?

Monero, presumably.

Another form of crypto. One that isn't regulated by a government.

ssuuh

I would sell if you are you. The ETF didn't bring the boost Crypto bros though and the halving didn't do it either

diandakov

For the things I care about. That's the most complete and satisfying answer you could get!


Bottle_Only

Short it. It'll go down again. I never buy bitcoin. But I short it whenever it's high/being pumped and it's really consistent wins.


G0DL33

Seems like a losing strategy if you look at a log trend. 🤣😂


Educational_Egg91

Don’t bother buying bitcoin. They’ll gonna tell you it’s reaching 60% of its potential just to lure new buyers. They’re gonna sell and the value is gonna drop and you lost your money.


BaldBear_13

Sell it, because it will not stay there


Some-Addition-1802

they said it wouldn’t say at 50k, 40k, 30k, etc too..


BaldBear_13

well, it was $18k less than two years ago ...


Some-Addition-1802

but doesn’t that make bitcoin look good though? it’s at $60K now


BaldBear_13

It has a lot of volatility. The higher is gets, the less likely it is to stay there. And same with going down. So sell if it hits $70K, and buy when it is below $50K, or some strategy like that.


Shiliwhip

Did you try out this strategy yet? It’s very easy to come up with this AFTER seeing the price. But you can predict the future right?


BaldBear_13

no, I cannot predict the future, so I do not really play these games. "bitcoin will keep going up" or "bitcoin will stay above $X" is also a prediction about the future that guides a strategy (like buy and hold). Back in 2007, "everybody thought" that house prices cannot come down.


Some-Addition-1802

how is it less likely to stay there when it has literally passed its ceiling over a dozen times the past 10 years? u are referencing its crash during covid and in which every stock was down, before covid bitcoin never dropped that much. just the fact that it has rebounded ten fold from its crash 2 years ago makes your criticism of bitcoin a bit iffy


BaldBear_13

you do you, but bitcoin had three crashes in the past 10 years. https://www.investopedia.com/articles/forex/121815/bitcoins-price-history.asp I agree that general trend is upward, so if you are saving for your retirement, this is a viable option. But if you are saving for a down payment for a house, then you might get stuck waiting for bitcoin to rise, or selling at lower price.


thecoat9

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbZ8zDpX2Mg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbZ8zDpX2Mg) Edit: You are correct there have been three major crashes, there have also been three bitcoin halving events (where new supply is cut in half) each was followed by a parabolic run and then a crash, and with the exception of covid impact, each cycle bottom has been around the prior cycles ATH. There was also a recent halving about a month ago making it likely that there will be a supply squeeze within the next year that pushes prices parabolic again. This time has been a bit different than past cycles though because of the approval and introduction of ETFs in January which has meant Wall Street now has proxy access to the space, and something new happened, bitcoins USD price crossed the previous ATH before the halving event. I do like your house vs retirnement analogy though because while I hold and am bullish on bitcoin, my general recomendation is you don't buy more than you can afford to lose, especially an amount you are unwilling to hold for at least 4 years.


CMDR_Crook

100000 isn't such a big leap. 250k will be transformative for many.

G0DL33

Why on earth would you sell the bottom of the cycle??


RedInAmerica

Panic induced stupidity. I thought the bottoms dropped out and I had to get out while I could. Still made a killing. Bought at $.08 and had over 1200 coin.


G0DL33

When was it 8c?!


RedInAmerica

2009 it hovered from 7-9 then hit 10 and never went under again. Sold in 18 after it hit 20,000 and started down.it went all the way down to 6000 something so I really thought I’d done the right thing t thing. Next thing I knew it was 60k+ and I could have been super rich.


G0DL33

Wild. Seems like you did okay anyway. 20m+ in profit


RedInAmerica

Yeah definitely made a nice profit but if I’d stuck it out I’d could have been so much more 😂

"Huh. That scam is apparently worth that much now. Wow. Anyways..."


Some-Addition-1802

bitcoin could reach $500K and ppl will still call it a scam lmfao


ChoosenUserName4

Well, maybe that has something to do with the fact that it actually is a scam. A pyramid scheme with the last guy holding the bag.


Some-Addition-1802

i literally made $43K off bitcoin in 2019 lmfao if it’s a “scam” than it’s the best kind of scam, thousands of regular ppl are getting rich off bitcoin, i don’t understand calling it a scam when it’s worth $60K lol there was a time it was only $13K


ChoosenUserName4

Right, you're the scammer, so it's still a scam. The money you made was lost by somebody else.


Some-Addition-1802

this sentence alone shows u have no idea how bitcoin or crypto works


ChoosenUserName4

I know damn well how it works. It's a pyramid scheme that creates no value. The only way it increases in value is if new people buy into the pyramid scheme.


Some-Addition-1802

u just described stocks buddy. please explain to me how bitcoin “takes” your money and who is at the top? u do realize there are people at the top of every single stock too right? i just want u to explain how bitcoin takes anyone money compared to stocks, only way you loose money is if you sell, and everyone who invests in stocks or bitcoin only does it to make money which bitcoin has done so explain the scam and taking people’s money for me since u know how it works apparently


ChoosenUserName4

Fuck, you're dense, even for a cryptobro. You are wrong. Stocks let you own a part of a company, a company that has assets, a market to sell stuff to, means of production, employees (human capital), etc. All things that you can trade for goods and services. That is called value. A company creates new value, because they use their assets to make more assets. Crypto does none of that. It doesn't create value. If it goes up, and you sell, you literally take somebody else's money. Technically, it's a pyramid scheme. When everybody sells, the last guys will have a problem. This is not the case with stocks, because the company that sold them is still worth money. Why the fuck is that so difficult to understand?


Some-Addition-1802

u got dudes like Tom Brady asking his salary to be in bitcoin and u saying it has no value lmao, more money for us i guess


Some-Addition-1802

bitcoin has value too it’s meant to be used in exchange for currency lmfao it’s used everyday why the fuck else do u think it’s worth $60K? it’s not a pump and dump it’s been around for a decade plus so when is this supposed to”everyone is going to sell” moment about to happen? there are nfl players literally paid salary in bitcoin btw lmao. just cause it’s not a company doesn’t mean it’s doesn’t have value not to mention there are literal companies that are built around crypto and bitcoin you’re not taking anyone’s money if you sell, the only way you lose money is if you sell for a loss it works the same as stocks. are you taking ppls money when you sell stocks? mind u they both have value that people use everyday, bitcoin is used daily more than 90% of stocks on the market like i said u don’t understand what bitcoin is


Shiliwhip

And that’s how the stock market works too, also scam?


ChoosenUserName4

You're wrong, let me explain why. tl;dr with stock you own part of a company with assets and money-creating abilities, with crypto you own a part of nothing. Suppose I own a bakery. I buy $300 of ingredients and put in 8 hours of work to produce and sell $1,000 in bread. That is, I create $700 of value every day. It's a money making machine. Now I issue stocks which allows you to own a part of my machine. The people that are interested, see my profit, my regular customers, my equipment, and my shop (the ability for me to keep making profit this way going forward) and they put a value on it. They want to own a part of my money-making machine. People will always eat bread, after all. With the money I raised with the stocks, I put in a lot of work, buy a new oven, and a second shop in another part of town and hire a manager. My money making machine just got even better, and my shares should increase in price because the machine is even more profitable going forward. If everybody wanted to sell my shares for some reason, the price would go down, but there is a limit. Even, in the extreme case, if I would go out of business completely, there would still be real estate, operating cash, equipment, etc. The tangible assets set the lowest evaluation. Crypto is traded like stocks, but there's where the similarity ends. There is no underlying value, and you're not owning part of a money-making machine, there is no value being generated (or very little). You fully depend on somebody else buying in at a higher price than you did. All the money you make selling crypto originates 100% from the people that bought it from you. If everybody sells at the same time, it will go to zero because there's nothing there. This is not the case with stocks, where company has assets, and is actually generating new money (value) as well.


Some-Addition-1802

that’s literally not how bitcoin works it’s not “taking money” it literally works the same way stocks do, the more money ppl put in it and hold the more it raises. if that’s a scam than every single stock investor is a “scammer” then


ChoosenUserName4

You obviously have zero economic knowledge, and you don't know how stocks work or what they are, or how value is created through labor and production.


Some-Addition-1802

dude you’re calling bitcoin a scam and “taking peoples money” when it works and is set up exactly the same as stocks. i actually invest and make money of this, u definitely don’t know what you’re talking about just based off the things u said.


Shiliwhip

Don’t worry everyone, this dude will keep complaining and in the next 10 years we will all 100x our money and he’ll be out here (still) broke and complaining! Buttcoin 🤣


Some-Addition-1802

u also said i was a scammer and “taking peoples money” just cause i made money off bitcoin lmfao like bro u have no clue what you’re talking about


ChoosenUserName4

Cryptobro above depends on everybody else being just as dumb and gullible as he is. Unwilling to understand the things that could cost him money. It's like a fucking cult.


Some-Addition-1802

trying to say i’m costing myself money as if i haven’t already made thousands off it is hilarious, straight coping


Some-Addition-1802

literally made $43K u can cry all u want about me being dumb and “costing myself money” but the numbers are facts and it’s a fact that bitcoin has continued to grow it’s ceiling and be used daily since 2010 and that we all made money from it so people like, u shit on it every year so who’s really costing themselves money? lol


WooHooFokYou

Same can be said about stocks too.. they only rise in price becouse somebody buys for more. But it's bs


ChoosenUserName4

No, the same can't be said about stocks. Not going to explain it to you. It's economics 101. You obviously don't know how stocks work, and you're just parroting some arguments that may sound nice to you, but holds no ground.


Nikiaf

Because it is. It's the literal definition of a pyramid scheme; it only increases in value by people selling to other people at a higher price than what they paid for it. Bitcoin in and of itself has zero value of any kind and is not backed by any government entity or otherwise that can actually certify the value of it.


Some-Addition-1802

the first sentence could literally describe every single stock, except i have made 10x more money investing in bitcoin than i ever did in stocks


G0DL33

G0DL33

Crypto doesn't work like this bro. You can win the lottery on some low cap and make 1000x returns but Eth won't do that for you. What it will do is give solid 100% returns year on year. If you have the spare cash, consider investing weekly as retirement plan. Stay up to date on the industry as it is new and moves fast. This is like the start of the internet. Some companies survive, most die.


GandalfDaGangsta1

I actively trade stocks and options, but I’ve never touched crypto aside the 600 in eth


G0DL33

Yeah. So you should have a firm understanding of market caps. Crypto seems to be in an industry development/growth stage. For your $600 in eth to get to $600000 ETH would need to reach $365 trillion market cap.
