It was never going to be considered a black market asset

There were plenty of people in the government that wanted to squash it like a bug, Joe Manchin comes to mind, and you are clueless if you think people like this won’t continue to work towards that end. Especially if it actually does what you think/hope it will do.

You're a terrible liar. If lying about this comes so easily to you, who knows what else you've lied about. Probably plenty I'm sure. For what? I don't even get the point. It's just sad.

Nah, you just don’t have nearly the memory or cleverness that you think you do. You conflate time and people and events to form narratives in that tiny little head of yours. For what? That’s obvious: you’re a child that was proven wrong in 2017 and now you have to feel better about yourself.

It’s OK though. Everyone remembers you saying it wasn’t a bubble, everyone remembers me calling it a bubble, and everyone remembers you getting proven wrong. If inventing fantasy land stories helps you get through the day, go for it.

No, I specifically remember you saying "it all smells like tulips to me" when discussing it with pffb back when it was $600. I'm sure matt and others saw it. And I wasn't wrong in 2017 as I never predicted it would go up or down. The only advice I gave then, and still do, is to not short it.

But if you need to keep lying about it to make you feel better about yourself, be my guest, but now I know you're a fraud. Most likely you always have been. Ironic it was a discussion about bitcoin that exposed you.

You still don't get it. And you aren't right by calling 2017 a bubble either.. Ultimately, it's up since then, and has significantly higher upside

Yeah, the infallible memory of WGB from half a decade ago couldn’t possibly be conflating or fabricating people, words and events to fit a narrative in that microscopic cranial cavity he calls a brain!

Yeah, 2017 wasn’t a retail bubble. That’s why it went up like 400% then crashed back down in a matter of months. :lol: 

By this standard 2008 wasn’t a real estate bubble, 2001 wasn’t a tech bubble, 1929 wasn’t a stock bubble... after all, they all went up since then and had significantly higher upside!

Congrats, you just solved financial markets! Give him the Nobel Prize! Bubbles no longer exist!

Dude what have you won in here? You've won nothing lol 

Remember Bitcoin going from $1 to $16 and back down to $4? Or from $70 to $1000, back down to $200? Who the f cares? 

 

I've given everyone in here the opportunity for life changing money, the right education on this particular topic, and you give me bs doomsday scenario that hasn't even come close to happening, in fact the opposite.

 

Take the L, put some in, and you can thank me if you don't have weak ass hands in the future

Keep lying about this and everything else, you're really impressing anonymous strangers on the internet.

:roll: Take the L? Doomsday scenario? What are you talking about? :roll: 

I’m LAUGHING at you for saying 2017 wasn’t a bubble. It was a textbook retail bubble, complete with CNBC talking heads and grandma jumping in on the action. Are you seriously going to argue it wasn’t a bubble? Is that really the point you’re at? :lol: 

And what makes you think I don’t already own? I already said I like it under $10K with regulatory risk mostly off the table. Maybe you get your Plan B multi trillion market cap, maybe not, but 2017 was absolutely a bubble.

Dude, I’m laughing at you. Literally laughing out loud at you. Believe me when I say I have no interest or care to impress you. You’re a little gnat on the internet with a pathological obsession with me, and it’s hilarious. :lol:

2013. Remember the bubble then? If you bought the top, you're up huge. No one cares. You still lost by not getting anything 

Also massive coping by saying this was just so risky back then. You could have put a very small amount of your entire net worth in it and be up so much it would have changed your life. You're simply wrong

Is that the dude that created the company opendoor? 

What is the best app to purchase bitcoin? I bought a little bit on Robin Hood but from what I've read it's not a good app to use for crypto... I read gemini and coinbase are the way to go

Yeah both definitely work. I have used Coinbase

I am planning on using a different app for bitcoin and when I get my stimulus check I was just going to use it for bitcoin anyway... What I might do is buy a little bit of opendoor on margin and then sell the bitcoin to cover that... Opendoor is down under 23 bucks a share and should be a decent price to get in at depending on where it opens tomorrow

Depends on what your intention is. With RH you're essentially just buying a bitcoin fund, but you won't actually own any bitcoin directly. There's no wallet to move coins in and out of, but if you don't care about that and just want to make USD tied to any BTC gains, it's fine.

If you actually want to own bitcoin with an address to send and receive them, Coinbase is the most popular app and exchange.

Well what I heard about rh is that any fees would go to the purchaser and that with coinbase there are fees but they are better than rh overall

Ya I can't in good conscience recommend buying individual securities on margin or keeping more than 1% of your portfolio in cryptocurrencies. Do what you want obviously, just my 2 cents.

I'd probably recommend Coinbase since I'm familiar with it and it's easy to use. And yeah, I like the idea behind open door so I don't blame you for wanting to put something in

I rarely ever buy on margin and I only spent 250 bucks on bitcoin when it was 19k I figured I would buy 500 worth of opendoor on margin and then sell my bitcoin when I get my stimulus check... Even if opendoor went to 0 it wouldn't hurt my account

There aren't any fees with RH, you're just buying and selling a fund. I haven't noticed any significant differences between quoted coin prices that indicate anything larger than half a pt at the very most.

Coinbase tags you with a 1.5pt hit on withdrawal and like a $5 flat fee on deposit. If you want smaller fees, Gemini or binance are better.

I only started investing again in October I have no excuses not to be investing and I should have never stopped I quit my job because I hated it and it worked out for me... At the time I didn't know what was going to happen so I took my money out of the market... I've currently only been buying ark etfs
