most people can not wrap their minds around something they can not physically see but thinking the fed can replace it with their own version of some inflationary coin is just absurd

it takes 3-5 years for many people before they actually "get it" and some never will.

ive been battling the same layer of dumbasses on this board since 2015 when it comes to BTC...

guys like slackster are traditional type financial advisors who lack any innovative investment acumen and have been advising their clients to stay away from bitcoin despite the fact its averaged over 400% per year since 2015

because of these poor decisions, they have a stake in the game to hope it fails for a variety of reasons.

we can make guaranteed investments in crypto/stablecoins to earn 10-12% per year, right now. these financial advisors can not compete with that and what lies ahead

I used to be that dumbass back in the 2015 timeframe where I would discuss how BTC was fools gold. Look where 6 years of researching has gotten me now. Possibly the biggest homer on this board now

Yea. This world of Crypto removes the middle men and the barriers. People like him will be out of work when this is fully accepted.

I was the same, but BTC and other crypto/exchanges went through some serious pain during those times.

Wish I had known more before the 2017 run too. Would have loaded up after the crash. Had kept a little but only in the last year have I really done my research.

A lot of my friends that ridiculed me for getting in during 2017 are now hitting me up telling me they’re finally buying. I tried telling them. They kept making remarks during the downturn the last year and a half and I kept repeating 5 year plan, 5 year plan. And here we are...

And to think, they’re still relatively early.

Can’t even tell you how many times my crypto group has said we should buy during the red and then no one pulled the trigger. Finally learned our lesson after March 2020.

This is easy to say now but if you would have been in during the highs and just saw your money vanish it took a special type of person to accumulate to ride that wave again. Most were either left holding bags, out of money, or disgusted with this space

my man.

still to this day im realizing new use cases and potential life-altering scenarios because of bitcoin/digital assets. it sounds bizarre, but we are truly just getting started

this space takes years and years to master but some will speak out on it after reading only one biased bloomberg article lol

I like reading the naysayers though, because it gives a chance to reinforce the counter-arguments. Reading responses to slackster that address the negatives, etc helps reinforce my confidence.

Yea I bought all the way up the 2017 run and watch 6 figures of value get lost in 2018. Wasn't fun, turned crypto off for about a year and then read Plan B's stock to flow article in early 2019. That was my catalyst to start acquiring again.
