Because gullible people are fricking retarded.

He was called out multiple times by ME, Russian, et al on the money board. He predicted a $5,000 value by last year end. He never returned.

WE WERE RIGHT







So he was off on timing, but so very right on predicting the coin to be quite valuable. I remember when he was pushing us all to buy it and me not trusting bit coin. It was quite affordable when he told us to buy.

It's my own fault, but I'll never forgive myself for letting LSU Russian's fear mongering and constant belittling sway me from going heavy on BTC. That was an 8 digit mistake. No joke.

It's difficult. Just because fake money is having a day in the sun, doesn't mean it was right to plow into it. And LSURussian is an unreliable twit most of the time.

It absolutely was right to plow into it. I mean, who the hell doesn't/didn't have a grand or two to play around with?

I ended up not repeating my mistake by going for it with ETH but still; yuck.

I’ve spent my entire youth being risk averse, it’s cost me more than it’s saved me

Yeah Russian doesn't come out of these threads too well.

Doc Fenton pretty accurately lays out every possibility for bitcoin (though, like me, he thought he was a bubble that would collapse at some point. He at least mentions the possibility of it succeeding as an investment class, and its implications.)

Russian then basically responds with "yeah, well you're just the typical over-educated lecturer. I'm rich, therefore, I'm right."

I bought alot of shite of the original Silk Road! I had 4 siezed when they shutdown Dream Market and Alphabay market.
Ive stayed away from the Deepweb/Darkweb for the most part.
The deepweb is very informative, just like China and Russia, etc. Our government censors what they want you to see. The deepweb is 500 or more times the size of the surface web. Google,Facebook,Instagram, etc.
Its also alot safer if you use the correct safety measures with aa good VPN. It has its place.
It was developed by the US navy for basically special ops so our guys IP Address couldn't be traced in other countries etc. The TOR browser was. With 21 countries
and Now russia and china denouncing the US dollar, paper money will be shite. It will take along time for that to happen, but it will. Also the US backs a crypto coin called Tether its our governments version of the $1.
The 21 countries were just last yr. They will destabilize our economy etc. Its part of Chinas 50 yr plan.
Wiki isnt asleep like most of the people that call people like us crazy! Of course, the moon landings happened! Of course JFK was killed by Oswald! And the list is endless!
Im actually good friends with Barrys Seals kids and wife. Dean, Christina, Aaron and Mrs. Debbie.

Well, sure, putting a few nickels in it made sense for FOMO. But going all in - no.

I think bitcoin/blockchain is dumb, but I still did alright on it. I know of at least one person (not Wiki!) that I think made at least 500 million.

That’s a lot of money don’t get me wrong but that is like signing a big contract in professional sports. Wiki prob moved to a tax free country and is living the life.
