Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
Why would you buy a coin just to sell it at a lower price?
Why did BBQ coiners buy BBQ coins, just to sell them for less? WTF is wrong with them? Didn't they realize that BBQ supply is limited, and, at each block reward halvening, their precious is *MATHEMATICALLY GUARANTEED* to double in price? FFS, how stupid those BBQers were! If they just held, they'd be rich as shit!!11!

I don't know what happened to BBQ coin and i don't care, because bitcoin isn't the same
This sort of willful ignorance, this willingness to cling to religious faith in their precious, that it's the Only True One, a special, unique snowflake, completely unlike scores of schemes structurally *just like it*, is what keeps people stupid and poor 
BBQ doesn't have value, so it's better to sell them at any price if they are going to collapse, instead of holding them and losing everything.
Limited supply only means something if someone actually wants those things.
Bitcoin has proven to be popular and useful, and the popularity only seems to grow.
Bitcoin isn't neccesarily diffeent from BBQ, but the thing that matters is the network effect.
MySpace wasn't any different from facebook, but myspace died, and facebook thrived. Why? because of network.
