CNBC told literally everyone to buy into Bitcoin just a few weeks ago
Now it's back where it was a week ago and they scream "IT WAS A SCAM IT'S A BUBBLE".

This is such an obvious "fuck you" to normies and when they change the tune and scream "BITCOIN TO 10K THIS MONTH BUY NOW" again, EXACTLY like last time, normies will suddenly sperg to buy back in...even higher, again.

Honestly, I think it's over. This is only just the beginning. The incoming Chinese exchange ban isn't even official yet. All the mainstream media calling Bitcoin a bubble. There isn't any newcomers because of this. It's over.

That's the mid July dip level...little extreme. I guess it's possible, as long as China gov keeps everyone on edge, more and more people will mentally break down and sell.
You can bet your ass China wants to be on top of the blockchain game, so in the end everything'll be fine. If we're lucky we'll get another amazing bull run.

The prediction I heard a while ago was btc would hit 5k then correct to 2800. A lot of people don't understand that's completely normal for btc. You don't need to worry about any of the fud. Just look at a day chart, scroll back through the history and you'll see it does this literally every single time it moons. Time to refuel and trade some shitcoins until we can take profits on the next moon.

SHUT IT DOWN!!!

>> No.3463291

I welcome a bubble.

- I already have 21 BTC, so if BTC ever makes it big, I'll be the top 1%.
- Get rid of some surplus technology/ICOs that is only in the game to make money and because they were funded with hype.
- Gets rid of weak hands, people only in crypto to make money, which reduces volatility in the long run and distributes more wealth to those with a libertarian mindset.
- Less regulation, because greater fools already lost money, and don't need the government to babysit their finances anymore.
- Can accumulate more BTC during a bear market, before it really explodes 2-3 years out.

The only two downsides I see of a bubble burst, is that:

- it will set the narrative for years to come, and normies will distrust crypto. We need normie buy-in to gain critical mass adoption. But we luckily don't necessarily need it right now, unless you are inter-month trading and shorting BTC.
- it gives more BTC to the few (rich cryptopunks and big banks alike). Big hedgefunds and banks can see through market swings and know BTC will be worth much more in the future. They also have the budget to accumulate. Cryptopunk whales that got rich of ETH and are in the game for years now, also have a better view of the market and can use downswings to their advantage. While these people are currently already in the financial elite, if crypto explodes, they will be the George Soros' of the new generations. Money and power corrupts. Crypto especially so.

>Most disruptive developments in technology and finance eventually inflate into speculative bubbles as investors and traders assume that the intrinsic value of these new vehicles will expand forever.
>The "Tulip Mania" in Holland in the 1630s to which Dimon alluded notwithstanding, history is replete with examples of how transformational technologies enter a highly speculative phase, leading to the creation of great riches for early investors but great risks for those who arrive at the party far too late.

> Bitcoin is a bubble that like Tulip, South Sea, Dot.com or Subprime will burst'Bitcoin was a great experiment that provided a lot of useful learning. It will burst on Monday 12 December 2016.

> Some MIT-Educated Financial Analyst

> At this point, it's merely a speculative commodity, just like tulip bulbs centuries ago or even Beanie Babies more recently. . . . Bitcoin has peaked and is very unlikely to escalate significantly in value again. . . . It's basically an elaborate Ponzi scheme. . . . While I don't relish anyone losing money, Bitcoin basically went out of the way to make itself vulnerable. For this reason, it is destined to fail.
