Just wondering if folk have had the same experences that I have had in the promotion of BTC. If so chime in here.

I'm sure we have all been cheerleaders for BTC in the past....let it wane when BTC was 200 usd or so.....and now as BTC is

surging again...how to approach this from what you may or may not have learned in the past...(2013 bit time cheerleader that I was as an example)

Anyway how it kinda is going now Smiley


Usually goes like this. (I was quite the BTC cheerleader when it was a 1100 plus in 2013)

Guy I told in the past comes up at an event (this happens about 3x a year)

Well I see BTC is down to 450 usd...so you lost your ass with BTC too bad.

I go NOPE.

He goes what is the BTC price?

I go (at the time) $450 usd.

He goes well there ya go you lost money.

I go NOPE. I MINE LTC to BTC so I MADE money. I'm holding all the coin I have into BTC eventually.

So he goes how much BTC do you have?

I go 100 (really 106 BTC if I converted all crypto to such)

Silence..for a LONG time.....

wanders off ....sometimes they ask about my equipment investment (24k) since 2013 (with all electric I ate since then on ASIC machines btc and ltc versions)
that sometimes give them a glimmer of hope into the future that I will fall on my ass.

my assumption is if BTC does go to say 2k a BTC ..there will be a lot of people trying to kick my ass ...for not twisting their arm into getting some.....(really) Smiley

Anyway...don't cheerleader much since 2013 for the above reasons....at least till it gets above 1000 usd......as you can see by the confusion I have sowed in my

2013 cheerleader efforts (ie buy a KNC 550 Jupiter for $7,131.80 on Oct 18th 2013 turn it on ....$150 BTC price 3.5 weeks later or so I think it was ROI...see 1100 usd

BTC a bit after Thanksgiving (still Nov 2013 I think?)...yeah.....I TOLD EVERYONE ..then much glee on everyone's part ehen it went down below 200 per BTC the following year.

Thus have retired from cheerleading for BTC unless someone shows a legit interest. Smiley

 (must now prepare the panic room for the ass kicking attempts if it hits 20k per BTC and yes that would likely include Mom) Sad
