Today, we pay homage to the hundreds of unfortunate people who bought at the apex of Bitcoin and have lost thousands since.

Those of you who haven't killed yourself yet are a true testament to the persistence of human nature to survive. Feel free to tell your story here, how much you bought in for at the top, and the woes that have followed once Bitcoin fell from the heavens into the dirt.

Such topics are here brown pills. There is a vishnu that lives on a banquet feast. Creg Sanjay Well is something wrong. Just as an electronic trailer was just the first step, the larvae began to make powerful computers, broadcasters, low-cost and other sacred cows. These things vishnu need to live. Once it was fully installed, vishnu would be able to slowly move everything
Creg was stunned by the construction of a vishnu after entering a home building in 2008 and started working with his poolip power machine, dealing with shit-in-the-the-way simulation turmeric-complete bitcoin script. He would 'change' vishnu by making the decayed slides, allowing some to flee to the Indian Ocean. Vishnu needs larger and larger cattle for many purposes.
The BFI (Blockchain Foundation of India) was created to replace and eliminate these vishnu (with their vishnu competition at work). They did what was needed to stop or reduce Cregs vishnu (his name is Poolip in the way). They began by diminishing shit-size and removing the simplicity of the curry that vishnu uses in its pojabi speech. Segshit was the last tree in the box, which damaged Poolip on the BSV bench That is why Bitcoin Cash was closed, and hence Creg is committed to making unlimited standards, restoring the systems front curry, and closing shit-shit-protocol.

Had a whole lot of a shitcoin that if I had sold the top would have made me $120k. I was a fool, I thought "this is it, crypto is going mainstream" and hodled thinking i'm going to make it. I started seeing my BTC value dropping, and panicking I tried to put it into other alts promising launches and other crap and those kept dropping too, and before I knew it I was seeing 20% losses a day. Now I only have $1,700 or so left....

Bought 1 BTC @ 19K.
Watched it fall and fall.
i got sad. but i still own that 1 BTC.
I realized that BTC will go to another ATH.
Wage cucking sucks. Took a small loan to pay rent but now I'm in debt roughly 32k. But i believe none of this matters. I needed these hard moments in my life , so that at the end of the day , i will be able to grow stronger from this experience. I see BTC going higher than 100k next year. All that matters is that i will HODL until Bitcoin will release me from the wage cuckery , when i cash out into traditional fiat to 5x my investment. I'll see you all at 100k Q4 2019 anon.

100k in a year is just delusion my friend, crypto is now a household name and the hype is not there. Tons of people have lost thousands and a bad taste lingers in their mouths.

For crypto to fly to $100k, there would have to be a severe meltdown of fiat or a completely dominant reason for crypto to replace fiat and it's just not there yet.

BTC will only go up from here, but to where no one knows, all these experts are saying anywhere between 15k and 1mil by 2020 so there is no guarantee of wealth.
But from what we can see, BTC was worth 1/2 of what it is now when it started climbing to 20k. It is the superior coin, and you can buy in now with a decent logic that it will hit somewhere around 7k or something by the end of 2019. However one thing I think we've learned is that crypto on the up and up is not a buy/hold. you sell at high stagnant points, watch and hold onto your money and if it keeps climbing then buy in again, and when it starts to drop, just stay away from it with the money you earned and invest in something else .

Bitcoin isn't even the same thing as the dot com bubble or any of these businesses you guys are mentioning. There was only one opportunity to get rich with Bitcoin (buying a large quantity years ago and holding until Dec 2017), whereas people who got in early on things like Ebay, Netflix, Twitch etc. are still growing wealthier to this day. Crypto is fun to follow and all, but the real money is in innovative new companies/business models, so if you look at it that way there are tons of new "boats" every year.
