Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

I've had three friends pull their money out and walk away from bit coin over the past few days.

Well done market makers / manipulators!

Really? They didn't know going in that this happens? I am very careful to explain the risks and how these things work to my friends. Not one is less interested now than they were, which is to say most are quite sorry they didn't buy when I told them they should Tongue

Did your friends lose money?

He lost about 3-4K $... oh well

There was a lady who bought at $1000 posting on this forum who had to take out a loan on their house to buy her first BTC. Kept talking about her dad investing 3000 BTC and trying to convince her to make her first buy. I wonder what happened to her. Embarrassed

I'm still here

. Still reading... Still 'hodling'. I paid $1080 for each of my 11.1 bitcoins and have not sold - I rationalise this like so: bitcoin is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it right? And I refuse to sell them for less, which means they are still worth at least $1080 . Ergo, I have lost no money Wink

. How's that for a comforting delusion?

That's no delusion, it's the truth.
