seem to be doing pretty well here.
getting ready for china to ban bitcoin on ~saturdayish
Really, is this serious? I can't find an article saying it will ban bitcoin this Saturday. It's annoying that their government really wants to control everything. Very rich country but too many poor people.
Life savings 100% in at 1190.
Pray for me.
My wife will leave me and is taking the kids
if I am wrong here.

Gambling is always wrong!
You were told many times. Buy bitcoins ONLY with long term money and ONLY that amount you can afford to lose entirely. If you do that you'll always win!
Surely this goofball is a troll.
But just to continue with the non gambling theme... yep... and incremental is good, too... rather than jumping in all at one price.
So if you are just beginning and you are a bit bullish (and you have a stash that you want to invest, but you are afraid that it is just going up from here), then you might consider reasonably investing anywhere between 30% and 70% at this price point, and then seeing what happens, but to have some money in reserve in case the price goes in the opposite direction than you expect.
My account is from 2013. I have been investing in bitcoin since 2010.
I am no troll
The content of your recent stupid-ass assertions seem to establish otherwise.

Either you will stick together or you will get another wife.

Anyway I still don't want bitcoin to drop this much. When ETF is signed i'll fuckin buy it expensive or not.
Long term, If bitcoin is doing great some of the alts will do 3x great.
At least that's how I look at things, if btc grows alts will follow.
the current alt bubble was sparked by the etf denial.
that tells me that alts exploded in relief that bitcoin didn't get a seal of legitimacy that lifts its status to level far beyond theirs. because it didn't it's all scratching around at the same level still.
which also tells me that if bitcoin ever did step up and out of the current quagmire alot of alts would fart their last as the hope had gone.
but it hasn't, so they won't.
I think even if bitcoin problems get solved some or even more alts will also continue to rise due to the increasing adoption of cyrptocurrency.
