Go and watch last night's question time and listen to what the two black women in the audience have to say. All of the societal issues they list are directly caused by the drugs trade (postcode wars, knife crime etc.) which only exists because people like yourself are casual users and don't think you harm anyone.

I have two (2) friends with schizophrenia and it has ruined theirs, and their families' lives. It has also created a drain on the public purse as they need "government help" now to try to fix them. Its futile, they're fucked.

YOU create demand for this shit, which creates a drug market, which then targets and destroys the lives of people such as my friends.

Legalising it will only ruin even more people's lives. All so you have have a spliff? Go fuck yourself. Selfish cretin

to stop 1 person from getting psychosis, we'd need to stop 7.5 thousand people from using. i'm sorry that your friend is a spastic, but don't penalise me for his inferiority.
>YOU create demand
the demand has always been there and will always be there, regardless of how many simpleton children there are like you, throwing tantrums and insisting that drug use can ever be stopped. NOTHING STOPS IT. ACCEPT THAT YOU DUMB CUNT.
>legalising will ruin blah
yes yes of course it will. creating a regulated market full of pharmaceutical grade product as opposed to whatever a criminal had lying around, sounds horrifying. as does the massive pile of money it'd generate.

you are a cretinous, useless, annoying little fucking cunt and your interfering is making everything worse. like with prohibition of alcohol, try to stop people and it immediately creates a violent criminal market full of poison. people will use regardless. now fuck off, i cannot be bothered with this dumbshit conservative demand to punish punish punish, and make everything massively worse in the process. drug use will no more stop than will the desire to make money. put those two together and drugs exist whether it makes you fucking cry or not, you damaging, ignorant little fucking sack of putrid fucking shit.

bitcoin.de and coinbase at that time.
It took me 4 month to get rid off all of them and transfer them on my bank account.
I lost over $16k in fees and got investigated by my tax authority (Steuerfahndung). Got a laywer and accountant for over 8k EUR (no joke). When everything was done I kept everything a 100% and was able to deduct 8k from my income tax.

In the beginning it was a really shady thing because it was only used for drugs and other criminal activity, allthough more and more people started mining professionally they still investigated me. I was always afraid that I could somehow end up in prison for supporting black market transactions or some shit.

I honestly thought that they would shut down all BTC related exchanges.
I never actually bought something with BTC and thought it was a joke once it hit 1k.

I threw 100$ in when it was a bit over a dollar because I figured "well theres no set value for this, maybe it will go to 2$ and ill have 100$ extra!".
It seems incredibly stupid and naive now, but you newfags have to realize how different crypto was back then. It wasn't an established asset class, and it was fucking hard as fuck to get and took multiple days, and involved western unioning money to shitskins in indonesia and waiting for them to get it and hoping they'd give you liberty reserve and then sending liberty reserve to mtgox. There wasn't a whole crypto scene. There were online money companies, like liberty reserve. Bitcoin was just like another internet money with different tech, unless you really looked into it more.
