coming from the guy who spent all everyday day 'warning' everyone here "no more triple digits in 2013" as a forum moderator.
so at least I know where your neutrality stands.
I would only agree that today you are more pragmatic.
and honestly the least anyone here on this website who first owned Bitcoins in 2011 could do is make a fortune, relativity aside.
I'm sorry if people took me seriously, it was fun for me, and I like triple digit Bitcoins. It was my way of managing expectations, and I wanted to point to the possibility of this. If you care to know, I've never shorted it and I still don't. Maybe I will reconsider that stance in quintuple digits.

The question nowadays is
keeping the fortune, that is where the skill is involved. No risk management and soon it can be poof. I realize that many people here believe there is absolutely no risk to Bitcoin long-term though.
edit: Yes, I was a pure troll at that time, was having too much fun there agitating people. Same way I trolled the bears in Winter 2011 who were shorting on leverage via Bitcoinica. Maybe I need a disclaimer in my signature that I am not to be taken seriously sometimes?
