(perhaps why I am such a latecomer to the wall observer despite being on the forum so long, but hey this is where the action is)

Same. The forum was excellent for the first few years, but now this is one of the only decent threads in this cesspool.

Edit: Your 2010 join date is impressive. I feel like a Johnny-come-lately now.

Haha yea I remember the time when you could read every new post. Or atleast check out every new thread to see if you were interested in it, subscribe to it, and read every new post in the threads you were interested in. The forum it's self was basically like the wall observer is now, except more organized, and everything wasn't off topic since you could actually post in the relevant thread.

The death knell for those days seemed to be the introduction of NXT. Too many people got rich too fast with something other than bitcoin and the altcoin mania began. Then this became altcointalk, and the signature campaigns began, and the bots. Well you know the story. NXT wasn't the first altcoin by any stretch, but it was different and it changed the way that people looked at altcoins. Alt coins before NXT were just a curiosity. NXT marked the point in time when people started looking at altcoins as more than a curiosity and instead as a way to get rich quick.

I mean there were people hoping to get rich quick in bitcoin before that. But they were tech people who thought that bitcoin MIGHT be a way to get rich but that they needed to learn about how it worked before they could know that. It was different.

Well, anyway, that's enough reminiscing for one morning.

Last video of the Hodge twins they are super depressed and considering selling all at a loss. At the end even the topic of suicide emerged spontaneously.

Bullish.

Yes. I'm not saying this is the bottom. But I feel like this is what the bottom will feel like. Does that make any sense?

And now shitcoins here to stay and have more than 50% market share (collectively). But thanks, its interesting hearing reminiscing about the old days. I remember fighting for all I was worth against ripple. Still hate it. Nxt passed me by. I don't think I ever understood it.
