This is a strange kind of proposal. I wonder about the mechanism.. you get the $1k in bitcoin so long as you do not spend it for 5 years? If you spend it, then you do not get it?

I did a quickie search for the actual tweet, and I could not find it (which shows why it may well be a better practice to put a link to referenced tweets in this thread so we can easily look further into them without having to work too hard).

You will find many such offers where people will take your bitcoin or lend your bitcoin and give you USD in return as an interest.
Its a new sort of scam to get your bitcoins.

The earlier post was about some City offering to give residents of the city bitcoins as long as they did not spend them for 5 years...

Is one of the catches that they have to give the city something? That does not sound right. There was no claim or representation about having to give anything.

Something is wrong with that image, no?

It has the same statement on both the right and the left side of the bell curve.

The statement on the left (lower) side needs to be changed, no? The statement on the right (higher) side is o.k.. , no?

You get the whole point of the meme, right? That the edges of the bellcurve are ironically both saying the exact same thing, and are ironically correct, while the great masses miss the biggest opportunity of their lives?

To me it's one of the truest of bitcoin memes. The point is the masses are missing it.

To be honest a wise man said it to another man in a vision 2000 years ago basically:

Quote

I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm--neither hot nor cold--I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, 'I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.' But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see.

Fair enough.. I felt that I am buy at any price, but I could either be at the right side or the left side of the bell curve..

No problem.. no problem.

I would like to get to 70k some time soon. As I do not want that guarantee to continue to haunt me.

You are going to be in real BIG trouble if you do not get vindicated at some point sooner than 3-4 years.

So perhaps everyone (except me) will forget so long as King Daddy reaches $70k in the next year or less.. in the next 24 hours would be even better.... Make it so.. Philip!!!!!!!!! Angry
