Gotcha. I don't like seeing people lose money for no good reason. My best guess on the demise of all this Crypto stuff is that the exchanges were traded will halt trading. Heck already an exchange went under three years ago we're BTC was being traded and everybody lost everything Or Government intervention will make it illegal to own and they will claim it's a way to launder money
I only invested an amount that I know I can afford to lose. We have to learn the hard lessons on our own. It's not called regrets for nothin'.
Maybe bitcoin holders should take your advice and buy some delisted Enron or WorldCom stock from a "real" exchange. No better yet find a money manager like Madoff to secure their assets. Or how about buy Gold which has done nothing but go down big time and stagnate for 7 years. And lastly how about stick it in a "safe" bank and get 0.00000001% interest. + + + You are in good company in your belief among 1000's of other genius statements: There's no chance that the iPhone is going to get any significant market share.

yeah I completely missed the boat on this one. I had heard about bitcoin back in the beginning stages and even researched how to mine but decided against when I read several articles stating that it wasn't worth the electricity cost. This is probably this generations once in a lifetime opportunity to literally get rich from doing next to nothing in a very short period of time. Once it gets popular and to these price levels, the exponential growth train has likely left (although who knows).
A new one I heard of the other day which is pretty interesting is called BlockStack. It's not a cryptocurrency though.
And maybe make it a joint poll with second question: how many Bitcoin bashers/naysayers will that total hit once price makes it to $4000.
