If you can think of a simpler way I'd like to hear it!

I like it when people say “symbiotic” as if it’s a good thing. They’re probably thinking of mutualism, where both parties benefit, but parasites and their hosts are also in symbiotic relationships.

I wanted to ask what was going on with that recent linear increase in population in Cambodia. Now I know, they’re being invaded by Bulgarians.

It actually a good bit lower than that, since anytime someone loses there private key those bitcoins are essentially gone forever.

It's trying to convince people to buy in now and drive prices up, because there will be nowehere near enough to go around in the very near future.

Bitcoins aren't worth anything unless there's suckers buying in.

Dreddout posted:That's just collapse_of_the_warsaw_pact.jpg, isn't it? Yes, but Bulgaria's is the most extreme case. For comparison, in 1989 the population of Belgium was only slightly higher than that of Bulgaria - now it's 50% higher.

I love the logic of this because it presupposes fractional BTC isn’t a thing. In their minds, people will be fighting to be the one to buy their bitcoin from them for the equivalent of millions of dollars instead of just using .00000054 BTC for their stupid transaction (or, more realistically, laughing when they run to pay for something with their worthless internet tokens)

Krankenstyle posted:yeah people who brag about being introverts are definitely victims of an online myers-briggstest Funny how INTJ is supposedly the rarest type, but everyone who brags about their Myers-Briggs result online seems to be that type (or a closely related one). Maybe the true sign of being an INTJ is taking online quiz results too seriously.
