I told you it was a scam

Really?

You started this thread after being removed from the previous thread - to gloat?
And not only to gloat, but to gloat about something you offer zero understanding nor explanation of?
Backed by zero action to substantiate your claim?

The only action you've taken actually COUNTERS your claim:

- You own bitcoin
- You're only figuring out how to short AFTER a crash?

If you genuinely believed what you said, you'd own ZERO coins and would have been shorting the hell out of it during the "craze" in the previous few months. You'd have a beautiful looking screenshot under your "told you so" post of your bank account flush with riches.

Owning coins and figuring out how to short after a crash is exactly the opposite of what someone who knows what they are doing would do.

Is your ego so fragile that you needed this thread to exist?
What were you hoping to get out of this?

The adults knew what they were getting into.
They still know.

Grow up.

Its all speculation no? Instead of HODL you should align yourself with the bigger idea. The innovation here is BLOCKCHAIN and all of its benefits, such as smart contracts. Crypto in itself has speculative value, but the benefits of the blockchain system itself, will be felt for years to come. With that being said, I still look for ripple to be the long term winner here.
Ripple is a dog man what don’t you people get

Nah.
"Ripple is a blockchain for BANKS, primarily focused on B2B. Normal consumers are not supposed to interact with the system and have better alternatives available."

I try not to feed into the hype. The founders of ripple themselves tell you not to buy their own coin because its not ment for you. Its designed for BANKS. And if banks are trying it out, it has a higher chance of traction, because banks arent going any where fast. Im not saying buy it and hope one day you'll be rich. It is one of the few coins along with ether, that I think will last.

Can I short this thread?

If you don’t post screenshots of yourself shorting this thread, your not serious about it.

I know we have a landfill tag, is there a dumpster fire tag?

“Investors” that trust their money to the markets, but don’t have the slightest clue how the markets work are gambling. Without a doubt.

Now, the DJIA is a collection of companies. Companies that have value. So no it’s not a scam. Bitcoin isn’t a scam either although it kind of behaved like a meteoric Ponzi scheme where the only value of the “asset” itself was the willingness of people to buy it.
That’s not a ponzi scheme... that’s true market value.

Show proof you shorted it and people might take this post seriously.

I told ya so’s don’t count for sh*t unless you did something with it.

If you weren’t confident enough to short it you shouldn’t be gloating.

As I've said to my friends about this topic:

It's not about being right or wrong. It's about how much money you make when you're right and how much you lose when you're wrong.
