I don't know what gold rush has to do with bitcoin. In bitcoin the biggest winners are those who recognize it to be the only absolutely scarce store of value in the history humankind, purchase it for their reliably depreciating fiat and hold it until the peak of the next speculative cycle.

yep basically that and scams - many scams in addition to manipulation by printing something with no value (stable-coins) ... >>12873048

bitcoin is worth nothing and never will be, its pure speculation which blew up mid 2017 approach peak interest and price manipulation by exchanges

nothing short of criminal but it stand to reason that gov agencies might be involved to wash/launder their slush funds (nsa)

fuck knows really, but personally i'm highly doubting the current gen of "crypto currencies" will go anywhere

trade stocks but be careful ... crash is on the horizon for real, when it will crypto scams will just further diminish in value as people scrounge to make ends meet

Bitcoin yearly lows:
2012 – $4
2013 – $65
2014 – $200
2015 – $185
2016 – $365
2017 – $780
2018 – $3200

You are right, the value isn't just stored, it is appreciating as fuck because we are still super early and the stock to flow ratio is getting lower every 10 minutes.

Why would I as a retail investor be interested in selling mining equipment? None of the bitcoin ASICs are made by publicly traded companies, so I can't even invest in them and even if I could, they would appreciate less and with more risk than bitcoin itself.
As for NV and AMD, they are not relevant to bitcoin mining at all. It seems that you are the one who is retarded, mate.

That is a nice picture of yourself. It seems that you have trouble comprehending my point, so let me rephrase for sub-80 IQ dumb fuck like yourself:

GPUs are used for mining alts, not bitcoin. It is unlikely there will be another altcoin mania, but even if it happens you will make less % gains on NV stock, than on bitcoin itself. Don't believe me?

If you bought NV stock and bitcoin in Jan 2017 you would now be up 40% on the stock and 400% on the bitcoin.

Now you can kill yourself, you retarded cretin.

do you even realize what you're comparing - in terms of value, accessibility and legality ?

>> No.12874065

>>12874003
Value: Nvidia competes on the market for GPUs and has mktcap 95 billion, bitcoin competes on the market for money (the second biggest market after real estate - currently 80 trillion) and has mktcap of 60 billion. Hmm, which one is better value investment???
Acessibility: to buy nvidia stock you need to have an account at a broker or service like robinhood, anybody on the entire planet can buy bitcoin through decentralized exchanges like Bisq, non-KYC ATMs, localbitcoins, vouchers like Azteco or dozens of KYC exchanges
Legality: bitcoin is outlawed only in handful of shithole countries and that doesn't stop their citizens from using it

A store of value means you can buy an asset at any time and expect it to retain it's value over time. Not going up 10000x in a few years and down 7x the next year.

That's not a store of value that's a ponzi.
