    My question is.... A expert such as yourself could have manipulated these various ups and downs and made quite a bit of money.

    Instead.... my measly "few thousand dollars" (your words) is still a shit ton more than you've been able to pull...

    Just curious why that is. It seems you are just a Monday morning quarterback?

    Any dipshit can do that... Like people that talk shit while watching poker on TV.
    Yes. Let's just assume that.

    4500 to be exact.

    My net worth is tied up in real estate and investment grade automobiles. Some more pie in the sky "investments".

    Still... I've made more than you have.

    Just did a few calculations.
    Last time, they managed to manipulate/pump/inflate the market to ATH and people fomo'd in on the then big sell-off/down-swing.
    That's how they make their money:
    - on the down swing.
    - when gamblers/investors/whatnot think they are being 'smarter'.

    They sold off enough cheap coins to take the ATH from $20k down to $6K and then manipulated it down a further $3k.
    This time, they won't get 30% return on their pumps.
    They are running out of greater fools.
    I'd say they are lucky to get 20%.

    So ... 20% of $14K is what? Or maybe we will see $15k again?
    I predict, in 2 years, BTC will be $2.8k.
    No more, no less
    $2.8K
    Stale - you can screenshot this one too.

    How about you take out the scarcity because that’s artificially constructed. I’m not wondering about the speculative value, but rather which one would be the best for the world?

    Easily BTC as store of value and EOS for dapps. About 80% of my crypto holdings are BTC.

    Prospectors has been out for almost a month and it's easily the best blockchain game ever. It has been in development for almost 4 years and was originally planned to be on ETH but the team moved to EOS because ETH is nowhere near being able to support Prospectors and games like it. Oh yeah, block.one that wrote the eosio software has a 4 billion dollar war chest + they own 140,000 BTC. They also have a flagship dapp that will most likely be the first dapp to reach mass adoption.

    Oh yeah, I'm also banking playing Prospectors. Making about 75 dollars a day now and things are just getting started. Plus it's fun as hell. PM of you want to play and I'll help you get hooked up. Free tools for Mags! Even you PG.

    I love it when idiots use the 'but cash' arguments. It shows just how lame crypto is when that's all they have to defend criminal behavior.

    Huh?

    "Lack of common standards is the biggest barrier to seamless international payments. Moving to the open ISO 20022 standard by 2021 is therefore a prerequisite for SWIFT’s plans."

    First, I just want to point out that ISO 20022 isn't anything to do with crypto.
    Second, it doesn't change how money is wired.
    ISO2002 is about a standardized data package format to encapsulate all the data required to write cheques, without cheques.
    This is not decentralized, or electronic cash, or anything of the such.
    SWIFT wants to see more SWIFT customers (increase market reach for their services),
    and by getting more businesses (primarily) to abandon paper cheques,
    they can increase their role in the traditional banking system.

    So, no ... not the same as Facebooks LIBRA and totally irrelevant to crypto.

    "The Volcker Rule prohibits banks from using customer deposits for their own profit."

    So, now let us talk about Bitcoin, the biggest exchange Bitfinex, fraudulent Tether
    and the Volker Rule.
    Financial regulation is something beautiful to behold!

    Of course you'd side with Mnuchin about something that is so incredibly demonstrably false. Name:  Screenshot_20190718-175324.jpeg

    Hey bruh, let me tell you a secret. Crypto communicates on Telegram. Over 4000 members in Prospectors chat there.

    I put in a fair bit of time up front, but now that I've got several gold mines going I only need to play for a few minutes a day to keep a nice steady side stream of income headed my way.

    TODAY on the BITCOIN Network

    Number of U.S. households powered for 1 day
    by the electricity consumed for a single transaction
    19.41

    Carbon footprint per transaction (kg of CO2)

    Bitcoin’s biggest problem is perhaps not even its massive energy consumption, but the fact most mining facilties in Bitcoin’s network are located in regions (primarily in China) that rely heavily on coal-based power (either directly or for the purpose of load balancing). To put it simply: “coal is fueling Bitcoin”
    ~(Stoll, 2019).

    Not a *terrible* return on investment, but not great, given the amount you need to invest. Although I suspect that maintenance is going to eat up a decent portion of that % return.

    True, but the return in intangibles is extremely high if you like cars and driving.
