Have faith. I know a few dudes that only put in a few hundred bucks each into BITSHARES (BTS) a few years back when it was 0.005 USD. Sitting at 60cents now down from just over 80. How to turn 300 bucks into 48 G (at 80cents) in a few years...

I thought the crypto shit was all b.s. so didn't buy till BTS went to 19 cents...still happy with the return though.

soon you will see the doge as the path to wealth

It'll be nice when values eventually stabilize, and we can just trade Btc/Eth on Gearswap - screw PayPal. Could be quite awhile though.

According to many including some smart professor valuators, and Mr Buffett, it'll be forever because it will never be real currency.

Well Mr. Buffett just recently (Monday or Tuesday ) that he knows nothing about crypto.

"I get into enough trouble with things I think I know something about," he added. "Why in the world should I take a long or short position in something I don't know anything about."

**jono** · 01-12-2018, 08:30 AM

Mr. Buffett did say the same thing about tech in the late nineties. Seems to have worked out for him.

Internet stocks. Not exactly tech.

He's got plenty of smart people around him who specialize. He doesn't need to know everything about it to invest and make money. He could easily make money on this, but doesn't believe the currency aspect is valid. I'd imagine he's investing in blockchain tech companies though.

He's spot on about that...

I've voiced more than a few times in this thread that it's the blockchain tech that wins here not the various coinage. This is a ride for those willing to take the risk on the coin side.

Grain of salt or a really big block?

While it's tough to look at that chart and not think this is a speculative mania, there is something about Bitcoin that's captured the public's imagination—whether it's the varied potential applications of the underlying blockchain technology, the idea of Bitcoin as "digital gold," or the promise of a currency immune to central banker meddling. Or maybe it's simply a textbook bubble, luring in speculators hoping to get rich. (More likely, it's some combination of the above.)

One thing that's been hard to avoid of late is the many dire Bitcoin proclamations coming from regulators and central bankers from around the world.

It's surprising because in our experience, these folks normally speak cautiously. Bitcoin has caused them to lose all timidity.

So for anyone thinking of buying Bitcoin in 2018, we set out to compile as many of these investor warnings as we could in one place. Here they are in their own words, with links to the original source:

Vested interests are going to defend BTC as long as they can. It is a pretty cornered market and if you have a huge position you’ll throw lots of money at defending the value.

Got roasted on DBC this past week. Got in at 0.36, decided sell half and hold the rest when it was around 0.6. Paying the price now. We'll see what this week brings. I should've said fuck DBC and bought NEO instead.
