Holy S--t Batman....

I've owned and been buying stocks for nearly 30 years now. And still do today. There were plenty of good fundamental stories. The headline tech firms make unbelievable cash... Not counting stupid meme stocks like Tesla

You maybe right. From what I've read passive investing flows have basically distorted price discovery. Supposedly current valuations are off the charts. It smells and walks like a ponzi scheme to me. Maybe was a different story 30 years ago.

I’d rather you kidnapped my two adorable kittens than call me a shitcoiner. I’m a Bitcoiner, TB. No, shitcoins.

Just curious but do you believe what he did should be legal?

No, it should be illegal or at the very least come with a very long disclaimer.

Spend your money buying equity in real companies that create products and services that benefit people.... Instead of trading tulips to the next sucker.

When the bear market comes, and it always will, don't be holding fake assets. They'll be killed. The leverage positions in crypto are huge. Nobody will care until the tide goes out.

I'm glad you have some perspective. I was in crypto before it was cool to be into crypto. I liked some of the libertarian and scientific aspects. Thought it was cool. Now it's just another wall st tool and a ponzi scheme. I suppose it was always a ponzi scheme imo. About the only real use I see is remittances using (un)stable USD linked coins. Blockchain maybe cool, but I see no point in crypto. If you knew tomorrow there wasn't another buyer you wouldn't be holding.

Bitcoin isn’t a Ponzi scheme. It’s the greatest money ever invented.

What makes Bitcoin better than any of the other coins that claim to have better and more secure protocols and maybe faster?

If tomorrow there was no buyer of your Bitcoin would you still hold today?

I suggest reading "The Bitcoin Stanard" to better understand all the advantages

If tomorrow there was no buyer of your Bitcoin would you still hold today?

Why would there be no buyers tomorrow? Humans have always wanted to save their time and energy in something. Bitcoin is the best asset/money for doing that.

Way to keep a stiff upper lip. With stoll getting you fired from your teaching job for posting during the school day, and now the Bitcoin crash of 2025, things have to be pretty bleak.
Thoughts and prayers.

WTF is this about?
