Taxing unrealized gains is always dumb.

I encourage you to try harder. And, preferably, smarter as well.

Really bad, awkward analogies for 1,000. THE DAILY DOUBLE!

My favorite thing about Bitcoin is that I know zero people who are actually interested in using Bitcoin to buy things. They all get excited to see Bitcoin as an accepted payment source but none of them would rather use it than their own credit card. Why? Because the overwhelming majority of people who care about Bitcoin only care about Bitcoin to the extent that it represents a magic honeypot. Using Bitcoin? Lol. They'd rather just buy and hold it.

Mercalius' favorite source, right?

Then you're beginning to see what I'm trying to mirror and mock.

Blah, whataboutisms, blah, blah, I don't have much of an understanding of economics so I like simple explanations, hype, hype, blind hope, blanket we win statement. Rinse, repeat.

Good. Fuck em.

Hahahaha The whole point behind my sharing that stuff the Dogecoin creator said (and people here ignored) is that Bitcoin is actually WORSE than standard economies at helping average people bridge any sort of wealth gap. It's unregulated, more easily controlled and quite manipulated. It doesn't do what it claims to exist to do and people are blind to that. You guys are delusional.

There's probably sadness even for people who rode it from the bottom and then killed some of that profit because they bought at the top as well. But they're the minority. The hype over the past year made it so plenty of people bought in later and they need another rise to get back into the money, let alone to make good money. And, yes, most of them are just in it for speculative purposes.

My first thought as well.

He logged in as recently as Monday. Either he's afraid to come and admit he was so stupid or he's so stupid he still thinks there's nothing to annoy and he's just avoiding the conversation. Either way? Good riddance.

Exactly. Same here.
