Ha, tulips is what they said 3 years ago.

That is twice now you got it wrong. Suerte is feminine. Buena Suerte! Won't even comment on the rest.

Sold out of DOGE - I have never been on one of those insane runups before. Have to do my job - can't stare at Robinhood all day

5.8x return - will have to live with that.

Yup I remember. Lol. BTC was at like 7k.

I’ll be the first to admit that I know jack about crypto. But, three years or thirty years mean nothing when a market moves. That happens almost at an instant.

 

[LIuconn]

Dumb question - how do I find my cost basis and overall return on Coinbase? Can’t find it anywhere

 

[ClifSpliffy]

Yup I remember. Lol. BTC was at like 7k.

and tesla was around $50 3 years back (i came here around tesla $60 times.) today, its around $740, or aboot 15 times more. today, bitcoin is around $62,000, or aboot 9 times more, lessn u bought it a year earlier, when it was around $17,000. then, it's only up aboot 4+ times. tesla stockholders win, and slept like a baby thruout. i mean, who on earth would ever buy an electric car, amiright?

There are over 5k crpto currencies or token available. Most don't have a viable use case. Very few have robust Blockchains associated with them.

There's very little financial integration with crypto, it's cumbersome. You buy or mine a crypto, save it to your cold storage or wallet, convert it to fiat with an absurd fee.

That being said, long term, I would stick with the top coins, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Chainlink, Dot and a few others.

Crypto has a place in our economy, it can help make settlement cross payments more efficient and much cheaper, but it will never replace fiat. The entire market cap of crypto is a little over a Trillion, hardly enough to make a dent in the global economy.

The crypto markets are driven by large instititional investors, and everyone is at the market makers mercy.

You can make lots of money in the short term, and more power to you if you do, but in the long term, there are going to be a lot of people holding onto some worthless crypto ALT coins when the bottom drops. HODL

this dude knows the deal. he prolly should be called 'mr b.y. crypto,' cuz of his record on it here, and all that. im bettin that he don't sweat no monthly electric bill, either.

Just like the Tech stock bubble in the early 2000's, the same will happen to crypto's. Excite, Ask Jeeves, Earth Link and Lycos all existed before Google, yet they all disappeared because Google did the same thing, but only better.

Everything is a cycle, you want the long term players that will be around for crypro 2.0

 

[UConnSwag11]

A universe of contracts compelling payment in dollars; a large/affluent population paid and compelled to pay taxes in dollars; an army, navy and air force enforcing at least some portion of the world to use dollars. To name a few.

So it’s really just backed by guns and bombs

Good luck.

Did you copy/paste this from my 2017 "I'm making so much money through bitcoin" thread in the cesspool? I'm feeling deja vu.

You missed out the first time, you missed out the second time, maybe third times a charm? But I doubt it.....

How did it feel when your $900 TSLA dumped to $550?

"just"?

No, but I remember the thread, and my sentiments haven't changed. Most of what I posted in this thread, I posted in that one as well, so your feelings of deja vu are well founded

I was thankful, because I tripled my position at 560. Pullbacks are welcome sometimes.

same as always, since my 'basis' average cost is in the lower double digits. even at $500, im still good for 10x. and then there is micron, which got going for me at below double digit cost. i'll never understand the herd thinking that sent that badboy so insanely low, as many of those same 'experts' were filling up their lives and homes with 'smart' junk. weird, cuz ya can't do 'smart' without memory.
on the udder hand, i let a certain female pick the new appliances for the northern crib spruce up, and highly enjoyed, for a minute, the hilarity of her trying to make the talking toaster and fridge, 'steam' washer, dryer that requires a youtube tutorial, silly oven, and the rest of that wildly expensive nonsense, actually work. only for a minute tho, cuz the inevitable 'how does this work, please make it work' conversation began. me? 'i don't know, why don't you ask them?' it all started day one when someone asked 'how does the coffee pot (seemingly the size of a room airconditioner) work?' note to self - hit up wallyworld for one of those $15 models. filter, coffee, water, hit button. voila! coffee! ezpz. now, im heading down to the river to wash a few things.... lol.

Monday Monday, seat belts locked? Cyclical crypto profit taking after ATHs? Other factors? After quarterly results, all time largest bank debt offers JPM, BAC, and GS. Other interesting events
