This is so ridiculous that i will answer you one last time:
You do really want to tell us that someone dumped 600k BC for 8000 SAT to rebuy a few thousand in the few minutes it went below that? It is hard to believe that you are that stupid. So you are either a troll or somebody who should definately not be allowed to handle any kind of money.

And now please leave us, for a change you could go and troll BTC for a while. They went to 1000+ USD, back to 350, up to 700, back to 350 ... no merchant will ever accept that, i think they need your professional help. Bye.

All you needed to know was posted in this earlier missive:

It has nothing to do with BC, but the only WTF so far (and I mean a big fat WTF) is about that super legit coin that has been added to that market together with the other coins. I admit it makes me a bit skeptical and cautious.

Smells like someone bought DRK at probably well north of .01 (possibly north of .02 even) and is holding a bag in a different coin. At least that's what I have to assume considering the nature of the other coins, and the fact that there has been a BTC/BC pairing since the first moment BC was added to an exchange (which is the only crypto I feel could be reasonably claimed to be 'Super Legit' - despite the fact that it is still a monetization of nothing - as are all cryptos).

Regardless of the drivel, that's the nature of things these days. People want big government programs and assistance... but then they want privacy and low taxes. The feel that any opportunity they missed out on is a 'manipulation' or 'unfair distribution' (especially by the devs/early adopters) - yet at the same time bitch and moan about the inherent risks of investing in something which is fundamentally nothing more than a speculation vehicle.

I've been reading financial rags for years (like 25 or more) and it's always the same. Everyone is brilliant as long as they don't have to actually make forward-looking predictions... but the second they do, in print - they get exposed as the idiot that told people that "Enron or Worldcomm were 'no-brainers' for people wanting to double or triple their investment in the next 3 years". Cheesy

Was I brilliant for buying a bunch of BC at 450-550 Sats? (Nope... just lucky, and speculating on the future). Was I an idiot for buying more all the way up to 35K Sats and then holding as it went under 10K repeatedly (Nope... just speculating on the future at the expense of the present - or 'unlucky' if you prefer). Wink

Regardless, I believe the future for BC is brighter than it's ever been... and if the biggest problem we face is the fact that people will dump when they should have held and hold when they should have dumped - then we've got nothing to worry about at all going forward. Take a look at almost any other investment... precious metals and real estate especially - you'll see exactly the same things
