Actually 1.5 months later. Bitcoins aren't a stable long term investment that is guaranteed to increase, you gotta cherrypick the news to know when to gamble, which is something I wasn't actively keeping up with.

It's like me saying "Don't invest in microsoft bill gates just dropped out of college" then a month later he buys dos and starts licensing talks with IBM but by then I'm not following the news.

And just where were all of you armchair prophets on this one? lol

Not wanting to get involved in something just as likely to have dumped back to $5 as it was to go parabolic up to 1:1 gold ratio like it did today. I agree with you, too volatile, used primarily for drugs, etc. Just fun to watch parabolic herd mentality movements like this.

Umm, isn't that exactly what you were doing in your OP? Trying to cherry pick the news to know when to gamble? You said nothing about the long term stability until your original recommendation turned out to be so monstrously wrong.

It's not like I was giving daily advice. The primary (and quite literally, only) purpose of the coin, an illegal black market, got busted by the feds. So I made thread and stopped caring.

And yet the price went up, despite the news. So what conclusion to draw? That your own understanding of bitcoin and markets in general is sorely lacking? Nah, just pretend like the world is just a crazy place that is beyond human understanding.

It was clearly computer algorithms capitalizing on the drop in the stock. That should worry you more.

Ah shit, he went to the "umadbro" argument. I must concede defeat. I was clearly wrong about everything I said, both in this thread and in my entire life. Well played, well played.
