gently caress its still around the $350 mark. Good days though in the last thread, reading guys who spent their life savings when it was $900+. Has there been many MTGOX like shennigans over the last year or two?

bollig posted:God I remember #3. "I will only, only, only do this in Pattaya." "Dude why?" 9) Some cafe or coffee place found out that someone replaced their QR Code to donate butts posters in their shop to his own. So for ages all donations/tips were going to some random dude. 10) Bitcoin ATMs mostly relied on them scamming free electricity and internet from the coffee shop/bars installed.

12. Our future Captain's of Industry misplacing a decimal point for the fee, and have just gave 9/10 of what they have to another person. 13. The two who went to Japan to protest outside MTGOX's empty office saying they will not leave until they get their money back.

Powered Descent posted:17. The bitcoin exchange that was being run entirely on a single ephemeral AWS virtual machine with no persistent storage. They lost all their bitcoins when they rebooted it one day. 18. Bitcoin sites with regular headline news of 'another new first Buttcoin ATM installed in new country' news showing how its taking off around the world, not showing how same ATMs are removed a few months later..

Professor Shark posted:Can you imagine if actual corporations decided to get into BC? They would eat Bitcoiners alive. There was a lot of talk of this back in the day, pre-MTGOX and when the price was still rising. Most butters were talking 'take my butts from cold dead hands' type poo poo. Now no one wants the coins, and the True Believers think they will become billionaires when it finally takes off.

Swan Curry posted:A cafe I go to fairly regularly has had a Bitcoin ATM (I think?) outside the toilets for around a year. I went in today today to find out it's been removed. rip buttcoin Don't worry, the sites that have maps of Buttcoin ATMs will still list that one for the next century or two.

Remember the couple who decided to live on Bitcoin, and thought it was amazing they found a gas station that used it. And it only takes a 104 mile round trip.

Germstore posted:There can only be X bitcoins and the worldwide economy is worth Y, so when everything is running on bitcoins they will each be worth Y/X. This is unassailable logic, and everyone should buy in while they can. Yes. And there is no way on earth, no way that if Butts became the standard on Earth, no way at all that a government will just take them from me. They will definitely sit back and let me become richer than sectors of the economy, and will just kneel down and do whatever my fedora stained hands command them to.

WhyteRyce posted:The "there are only X number of Bitcoins ever but that doesn't matter because it's infinitely divisible" argument doesn't make sense to me. It would (theoretically) have value relative to goods and services, so unless those goods and services go down in price then it doesn't help? Here son, goto the store and get a loaf of bread, a stick of butter, and a jug of milk. Here's 0.000000000001 Ron Paul Funbuxs, get yourself some sweets with the change.

Germstore posted:No one's sent anything for like 16 hours? I wish this was even a fraction as popular as twitch plays pokemon so it would DDOS bitcoin. This is like a science experiment to show how BItcoin works in reality. Like remember the nerdgasm bitcoiners had when you could bit-tip each other for comment posts and such? "Oh my good man, have a 0.0000000000001 for that cracking retort on why Sonic is superior!" "Thank you sir, have a fedorashi back, 0.000000000001". Then they realized that they are just losing money and one day that will be worth $100000000000000000.

Stex T posted:OK, I don't really get all this economics stuff, but from what I can gather, bitcoin is like a pyramid scheme, but instead of selling vacuum cleaners it's gluing thousands of video cards together No, there is no giving money to anyone higher than you. Think of it this way. All of Bitcoin is an arcade. You walk in and all the machines are just change machines. You also see a board of prizes to be won, mostly dreams and promises. But they can only be bought with Arcade Tokens. And you want all of the prizes. There are others putting in dollars into the machines, and getting arcade coin tokens out. And they do this all day, every day. You walk upto one, and insert a dollar. But it takes a day for the money to come out, and at the end you get 75 cents worth of arcade tokens. And you think this is brilliant. Weclome to Bitcoin. happyhippy fucked around with this message at 16:14 on Mar 17, 2016 |
