like food and water, my posting has no intrinsic value

cancercoin is probably "donating money to charity" by actually being used to pay for the owner to eat at Joe's Crab Shack.

Do not engage. Just tell me to go back to Kiwi Farms where I waste days upon days crying about how I wasted years upon years on SA. Did you know I was personally responsible for SA's rise in popularity in the 00's? It's true! Just come to the Farms and find out how! It's the trash kingdom I deserve.

totalbiscuit is a populer youtube video games guy. he was making GBS threads blood for about 12 months before going to his NHS doctor to say "hey, i've been pooping blood for a year, what's up" and the what is cancer, and the up is up his butt. it's colon cancer that caused him to poop blood for a year.

when totalbiscuit found out that he had colon cancer, he did a public service let's play where he talked about how he had colon cancer and gave the helpful message that you should go to the doctor if you poop blood. it's a very good message, but i don't know that it needed a public service message, as who wouldn't go to a doctor for that? even if you don't live in england and have to pay money for doctor visits, you are probably going to go to a doctor whenever you are pooping blood.

so if I'm reading this right, they pre-mined the poo poo out of this, so now they want people to pump up the value so they can dump it all...for "charity"?

you're reading it wrong because one of the specs is "no premine"

whether they actually premined or not who knows but the page claims they didn't

that's even better. so you're supposed to mine it, then pump it, then...give it back to them?

"most cryptocurrency blogs today are fully biased, they don't write what's really going on in the altcoin space, but write only on topics that are paid for. if you really want to know what's going on there are closed groups that you can pay for and get information, for example which coin is going to rise"

I give up. Bitcoin has broken me financially and mentally I can barely get out of bed in the morning. You guys win, you got me. I feel like everyone made money except for me. I'm past the point of being disgusted with myself, now it's just a cold numbness. I don't understand how I could be so stupid... I could have made money but I held, and held, and held.... Every morning when I wake up..

"Why the gently caress didn't you sell?"

Why are we going down still, when is this ever going to turn around? I've lost all hope.

I didn't buy on credit or with 'money I couldn't afford to lose,' but it still hurts a lot.

OKay here it is. I'm living in the streets now... not thanks to Bitcoin but thanks to myself and my hopefuly beliefs about Bitcoin finally taking us out of slavery from money manipulators thousands of miles away taking a % of every transaction worldwide. I've always said I don't care if my coin goes to 0 if I help to change the world by adopting it it is worth it.

I've never lived in the streets before. I could sell my bitcoins now at a loss and get a car or apartment for the short term and be okay. But I'm going homeless. Why? I believe more in changing the world than my greed for profit.

Not only am I not selling at a loss, I'm going to continue to be homeless in order to keep them. I'm going to do EVERYTHING in my power to ensure that Wells Fargo does not see a dime from me ever again any time I can help it. That means not spending my BTC until people accept and hold BTC (not trade it directly for fiat)...

So I'm in long term, I don't care if it goes to $1 I"m going to keep buying if I get winter work, going to put every last spare penny into it still. When I go back to my regular job in the Summer... going to keep buying.

The only thing that we need to do is remember that bitcoin can never go away anymore. it will always be worth "something". Sidechains are going to make it more useful.

And the dollar is by laws of mathematics going to inflate FAR faster than bitcoin. It doesn't look like it because when two trillion dollars are manufactuerd its a drop in the bucket but when 1000 bitcoins are sold its a huge percent. As BTC growth slows down though it will become more obvious that worldwide the BTC will retain more value than dollar day by day.

Holding long term is the only right way to go. We're close to 0 already so if it DOES go forever away then well I can't get mch worse off than I am now. I'm learning to live in the streets so I can hold this long term.

I can't explain it all right now but seriously stop worrying. Think of it as LONG TERM. You only lose if you sell at a loss so pretend you put that in a 5 year CD instead and don't look at it's value daily, look at it a few times a year.

(edit: if another coin looks way more promising than bitcoin then I'm also diversifying my crypto investments but right now I'm 80% BTC. Just FYI I really like the direction of MAID and others that will liberate content from adertisers, trackers, and governments)
