    Make sure you keep your money in bitcoin so when it crashes we can all laugh at you. Again.

      Right now I’m up over 400% on my bitcoin, it’s by far my best performing investment. Come back to this comment in 6 months and see where it’s at.

        I once hopped cryptocurrency was going to end capitalism, democratize the financial system and help redistributing wealth. Instead it became yet another stock to gamble on.

          Yeah, and it’s easy to tell who are the bitter people who took a known gamble and lost. Gotta blame someone/something.

          You were right. It is fun to eat popcorn while watching your investment increase in value by an additional 50% in a 9 month period of time. 🍿🤓

        If i recall correctly, the stock to flow model predicts that this cycle should peak in late 2025.
