Remember after the first two drops of the bitcoin everybody though, nah that was it, it will never go up again. Who bought at that point got some big profit. Well right now its really cheap. The question is, when will it go up again and will you be late on the train?

You're preaching to the choir with /biz/

In their mind bitcoin is headed to the floor, and it wont matter to them untill they see it back at $1000.

And when it is back at $1000 they will claim it is overpriced, and anyone buying is retarded.

Then when it crashes and we bottom out at $500 they will claim bitcoin has died again.

So stubborn in their ways, but I couldn't care less, it's their loss.

When the rothschilds knew the french were defeated at the battle of Waterloo. They knew other investors would be watching to see what they did.

Instead of acting on the information directly by buying british bonds, they bought large amounts of french war bonds.

All the other investors thought this meant that the British had lost. So they sold british bonds and bought french.

Guess who was there buying up the British bonds at Rock bottom prices? Yes, the rothschilds.

They had used their information advantage and wealth to pull off the final ruse. They bought at the bottom of the British empire which then became Pax Americana and the new world order this cementing their place as our financial overlords for probably the rest of human history.


I forgot what the point of the story was but I think you should buy Bitcoin.

>> No.698307

>>698246
Its unheard of for any single person to buy over $100 million dollars worth of bitcoin which is why so many people think its bogus. Even the silkroad seizure was less than that and the FBI had the single largest Bitcoin wallet that exists. The only theory that makes sense is that the bot wasn't actually buying bitcoin but was an insider of MtGox (maybe Karpeles himself) transferring bitcoin around to make it seem like there was high demand. Just because the marketcap is over $4 billion doesn't mean those Bitcoin would be worth $4 billion if sold on the open market and it sure as hell doesnt give it validity. People will sell rocks as pets if they think there are people that are dumb enough to buy them. The first bitcoin exchange was a retrofitted Magic the Gathering card game marketplace. The fact that the price has been mostly declining for more than a year means that demand hasnt been able to keep up with supply. The downward trend started right after the bots were discovered and brought to attention. It just goes to prove that the $1100 price was a complete fabrication. You guys have major balls to suggest to anyone that bitcoin is "cheap" and they should buy some now. Thats like telling people that they should reinvest with Madoff because a few people actually made money.

>> No.698315

The silk road seizure was actually more than that in dollars at the time.

Saying willybot was the only reason the price went up is like saying 9/11 was carried out by terrorists armed with knives directed from a mountain cave in Afghanistan by Osama bin laden and the Taliban.
