I'm all for dicussion of the pros and cons of crypto currency and the blockchain, but..... Please enough of the one liner FUDS with no discussion or debate to back up the claims. There are people on here that have made 4, 5 even 6 figure sums from crypto currencies and I for one am ****ìng thrilled for them. Some ordinary Joe Soaps that took it by the balls and made life changing money ... if they had listened to some of the crap spouted in here back when they took their calculated risk they wouldn't have got anywhere. There's a good post floating around about the Do's & Dont's which is very good, and if followed won't see many people burned, so what's people problems with others trying to better themselves and more than likely their families lifes by getting into crypto currencies? ..or is it just jealously from a few that maybe feel they've missed the boat, or didn't follow their own Do and Dont's and got burned!?!? .... Cause I'm struggling to understand some of the citric vibe from a few in here? /rant.

The only difference is they got into the pyramid earlier. The genuine guaranteed profits are being made by the exchanges who are essentially acting as the house in a casino, making their edge no matter what happens.

In a few days you might have a to zoom out a bit more and talk about 3 or 4 months ago to keep saying the long term view is positive. I’m not in any way claming I know what will happen, there could be a rebound. But for sure gauging the situation is not just about market value but also about current trajectories and from that perspective the situation is different from what it was 2 months ago.

After cashing out a wee bit for a hollier a few weeks ago I'm happy enough to hold what remains and see what happens. An incredible crash, I'm down 75% from the ATH's.

Since bitcoins have a intrinsic value and their value is mostly set by people’s expectation of where it is heading, it is actually a game theory problem: either you act “selfishly” and sell to garantie your profit knowing that you are hurting the group and your future prospects, or you hold which is the best decision for everyone including you if all stakeholders make that decision (but it means you have to trust everyone will play by that rule or you could get screwed if too many people pick the first option).
