what rpice did you sell at? Or did you just deposit that?
I just got wet.
The guy is smart enough to have sold everything. Why do you think he only has 10 btc and the other 478 would be bitcoins are in usd.....

wow @>$100K on an exchange. Hopefully it's not all of your life savings.
nope just profits
I wouldn't be comfortable holding that much long-term on an exchange. There's non-negligible counter-party risk involved.
-power to the hyphen-He probably can't figure out how to cash it out without the banks reporting it.
At least I hope that is the problem

Bob thought it was a good idea to buy an overpriced btc ticket at the fake pump's high.
When Bob realized that no one was really conducting the train, it was to late.

Really? I mean, really really?
Diamonds? Man.
Bonds? Excuse me.
Guns? What an investment is that?
Exxon stock? How about some ENRON? Heard they did great in the past.

-bonds have made me money as well roughly 0.5% - 1% a year ... safe easy money i don't need to pay any attention to ... make up 1-2% of net ...

-my exxon stock has split 4 times since i've owned it and gained in value double digit %s as well ... exxon is last i checked the largest global petrochemical / energy company in the world ... not just oil ... large industrial infrastructure extremely different from ENRON which was basically an improperly (illegally) run futures trading market ... actually exxon and enron couldn't be much more different ... it has done very well so well i rarely check it ... 5% of net

Having a bit of FIAT : OK
Real estate after a crash : OK
But please, don't advice people to buy things like diamonds, guns, bonds and stocks... please, this is ridiculous and terrible advice.
If people want to diversify, they can buy some gold and silver when it's low.
It is typical for a btc holder to advise buying silver. Silver had a bubble, crashed back to its reasonable value a few years ago, and has been there ever since. Money bought in on the way down, similar to btc is now sitting there waiting, aka holding forever. The only difference is silver is time tested so one day it will go up, btc is not.
Stocks and bonds are bad to buy
lmao
Guns, I have to say that is ridiculous. You can make a fortune buying guns before any ban, election, or other fear mongering, or you can get completely fucked if they outlaw the sale of a weapon to others.
Diamonds, I don't know shit about, but to me it seems like you'd get screwed or be unable to sell large amounts of diamonds. It would be badass though to have a nice diamond collection.

actually you should own a few guns and a lot of lead. you are giving really bad advice telling people to not exercise their constitutional rights. the minimum a person should own is at least one ar-15 and 5000 factory rounds that is kept stored and another 1000 rounds for shooting that you reload. i stay well above these minimums and so does my family.
you are right about bonds and stocks. i would never own any of that paper garbage. if you own that toxic stuff then it is your own fault when you get caugfht on the 'big block of cheese day' .. you had plenty of time to prepare so when you start crying about it i am going to remind you of this facts. hell gold and silver has been artificially low for last two years. plenty of time.
WTF man. Don't tell the sheeple that. How am I going to be king of zombie land if everyone else has a gun.
Btw I am sure that many gun manufacturers and importers are publicly traded. So if you believe in firearms and their existence so much, you should believe in the companies that supply them.

bullshiat .. this shows your total complete ignorance on the subject. there never was a bubble and it never crashed. it was manipulated lower for reasons likely beyond your IQ level to understand .
Coming from someone who thinks stocks are for idiots, I am pretty sure I understand finance better than you ever will.

I bought my gf a btc for valentines day.
I told her it was once worth over $1000 and peple think it will be worth $100,000.
I then told her she is free to use it whenever she wants.
At first she was excited, and then she saw the price over the last year, and said fuck this, i'm cashing this in now.
She then tried to use it to buy something, but couldn't find anyplace that would accept btc.
After telling me she cannot figure it out I told her, don't worry I bought you a real gift.....
but if you want that gift I am going to get obnoxiously drunk at dinner tonight.
She agreed and told me to use my btc on dinner, and I just laughed and explained to her I can't do that.
When she asked why I told her that only companies wanting publicity accept btc, and then they dump it with the few sales they get.
She then said why would anyone want to use this garbage, I said, to make money off suckers.

Be happy you can still cash out and rebuy lower.
I will be honest that was one hell of a nice pump and dump. I was even fooled for a bit and thinking wow maybe btc will take off.
Rethinking my 220 buy in bottom before another pump and dump (prediction of course, not actual as I don't buy into scams....often), will see how hard btc gets buttfucked monday.

Fool me once, shame on you...fool me twice, shame on me....When will people finally realize, that keeping BTC in exchanges is huge risk?
So lets make bitcoin unusable by not ever using exchanges. It is not like the hackers say they only steal btc that has been sitting there for over a week.
I guarantee that if you take the amount of transactions that occur on an exchange and compare it to the amount that occur without exchanges, the ratio of transaction to some dickhead stealing your btc or fiat is a lot lower on an exchange. BTC doesn't blow because of exchanges, it blows monkey cock for other reasons right now.

Auctions are good, rich dumb guys buy all the btc, they hold it, less coins in circulation, btc bagholders win long run.

The first one caused a drop of ~70 USD on its announcement (~2014-06-11) which was reversed when it was known that one bidder had bought all the coins (~2014-06-30).
The ssecond one (announced ~2014-11-17, result known ~2014-12-09) did not have any clear effect although there was a ~25 USD drop on the day before the result became known (a leak perhaps?).
Auctions are good, rich dumb guys buy all the btc, they hold it, less coins in circulation, btc bagholders win long run.
It depends... Those coins are now out of the active market, whether open (exchanges) and OTC (off-exchanges). The auction will take a lot of dollars out of the pockets of people who would otherwise buy bitcoins in the market; so it will put a negative pressure on the price.
If the coins are bought by long-term hoders, the effect will not be immediate; simply there will be less money around in the following onths. If the winners are short-term speculators, the drop may be immediate as they offer the coins for sale.
(On the other hand, perhaps there are people who are not buying BTC now because they hope to get a better deal at the auction. If they do not win the auction, perhaps they will start buying from the market.)
Your points are much better lol.
Maybe btc will go back up, as it has been the Chinese manipulating the btc price downwards to screw the US out of money in the auctions!!!
