We don't go from a bull market to a bear market, merely because a correction ends up coming or the correction ends up being deeper and/or longer than expected.

You might want to add this... @BlackHatCoiner

I am thinking that there could be a quote from a large number of forum members.. or perhaps any member with more than 100 posts would have some potential for memorable kinds of sayings (or at least the members who are posting with some level of coherence).

Today I ordered this full extras Mercedes-AMG GLC 43 4MATIC Coupe 2024. I'll have to wait 6 months to get it, though. The good thing is that by then Bitcoin price will be much higher and the lease payments besides my salary part, will cost me less in terms of my stash. My realistic hopes are for the price to be such that it will be below 4% of my stash. I still can't believe how my desicions to start accumulating and hodling in 2016-2017 are bringing me such change and joy now. New town, new home, new job, new car and with the crossing of 100K possibly even a big house and a villa. Besides, I have a fulfilling lifestyle in a town with many culture events, restaurants and hospitals. I'm very happy!

congrats
Would cost nearly over here around 3.5 btc in overall incl insurance.

Yeah, but I imagine ivomm is expecting BTC to be around $100k-ish by the time he has to pay the balance. .around 6 months-ish.. which may or may not end up playing to his favor.. .. so in dollars that car is currently between $100k and $150k depending on features.. and you are saying the same car is more in your location?.. you are suggesting that same car is a bit more than $200k? You must be getting all of the features or some of your other assumptions are seemingly off.

Maybe leases work differently in other parts of the world but here, lease payments are generally due monthly for a set term. Once that term expires, you give back whatever is left of the vehicle and would then be assessed a penalty for any wear and tear / mileage over and above the contractual expectation. There would only be a lump sum payment if you decided to buy the vehicle on lease expiration. 6 months is for the delivery of the where first and last is due, the remainder will be spread over several years so I think the $100k number was just thrown out there to use for comparison.

You got me there. I had not caught that he was "leasing" the car, rather than buying it. My post was presuming that he was buying the car. Whoops. My bad.

Try to find the LLama

I couldn't find anyone with that username. Do you mean the lama guy who thinks Bitcoin will go to 0?

Proudhon isn't a Tibetan priest. He's an alpaca.

Some of "us," (maybe only yours truly?), identify him as a being with donkey breath.

Mtgox coins have started hitting the market. The first users are beginning to confirm having received their coins. Market only down $2,300 so far today and holding up well. I imagine the losses will accelerate as people get off work or start seeing their nest egg declining as well as more users receiving their coins. Still hoping we see some billionaires taking advantage of the liquidity to do some stacking so things don’t set off a panic.

Btw not saying that you got some price actions wrong lately… though I just not following the pad all the way…

he clearly got it wrong...was talking about 38 at 54-60, never 'predicted' a rise to 67 (yea, was also giving a lip service to 135 in a year, but 38 first).

Yep.

These guys constantly calling for down will be right sooner or later, but frequently the down comes after up, and there are many examples in bitcoin's history, including recent history... There were people selling below $20k in mid to late 2022 expecting more down.. and there were even some others (or maybe the same ones) selling in the mid-to-upper $20ks throughout 2023, and how is that working out for them?

Yeah, sure we might see some down before up, but I doubt it is worth it to be failing/refusing to sufficiently adequately prepare for up, whether that is selling or merely failure to buy because of expecting lower prices that may or may not end up happening.
