    [quote=sc281;1669026]Lmao. Just like Vegas.


    And now you wait. Pull up a chair, you'll be here for awhile. I'm stuck in DNT. Can't get out till it goes to 14 cents. Its currently at 3.6 cents. I expect to be stuck in that position for at least a year. My others are just holding at what I paid for them; no help there either. Only ones I'm up on are Safex and bitcoin.

    oops

    "'$300m in cryptocurrency' accidentally lost forever due to bug"

    User mistakenly takes control of hundreds of wallets containing cryptocurrency Ether, destroying them in a panic while trying to give them back

    This will be interesting. Like betting at Vegas. With probably the same results.

    Where did you have it up for sale? I've got a 980 I'd like to get rid of.

    Yeah many of them are scams. But many are not. That is why lots of research into any ico or coin is key. You've also got to stay on top of it because even the ones that aren't scams, will sometimes just... go away. They fade out of existence. I assume its like the company goes out of business. In the event that it wasn't a scam to begin with. Only those select few hundred stand the test of time. The thousands of others just go away. Taking lots of other people's money with them.

    That said, every single one of them including bitcoin, has been called a scam by lots of people at one point or another.

    I don't know anything about mining but Bitcoin hit 6k today. Only been investing for less than a year now. Wish I would have done it back in 2010 when I was first learned about it. But anyone familiar with cryptocurrency has the same story., like when HTC was $10 this time last year. Anyhow i ride it out and see where it goes...

    It's also 40x more energy intensive than Visa.

    Be interesting to see what happens when they're all mined out. There are only 21 million bitcoins. After that, the well is dry. Which is coming up sooner rather than later. A year from now 80% of the total will have been mined.

    The world of Bitcoin is in for quite a reality shock in about a year from now. As most people are well aware of, the amount of bitcoins being mined every day is much compared to a few years ago. What

    The Bitcoin Energy Consumption Index provides the latest estimate of the total energy consumption of the Bitcoin network.

    As long as you're not a money launderer you've got nothing to worry about. When you take profits in fiat currency from bitcoin, they expect you to pay taxes on that just like anything else. If you don't however, and just leave it in bitcoin, you don't really incur taxes. They're being treated as stocks.

    Blockchain technology is the future from what I'm seeing. It's all pretty damn confusing though. Haha.
