lol soon

the vast majority of crypto is owned by whales and while they can keep the numbers up via doing illegal things like wash trading they do eventually need real people to cash them out, once those people stop coming around what is even the point of it all

this is the same argument every pyramid scheme/MLM uses to keep people in

"If only I bought bitcoin in 2011, I would be so rich."

No, you likely wouldn't be. You would've probably sold early because you were scared, just like you probably are today.

I find it hard to amass sympathy for these assholes but I feel like a lot of the citizens of El Salvador are gonna be unnecessarily suffering because of this and that really sucks

yeah a lot of people are going to get hurt over this wouldve been better if no one ever made a bitcoin

terra luna down 99.99% on a week ago and 99.9ish down on the opening today

does it just dribble to zero or will it suddenly go all at once?

lmao as an online poker player I know what this means

haa

I think all of the crypto should be converted to commemorative tshirts and other physical items that everyone can keep long after the crypto has died mutated into an even more hideous form that no one here is even thinking about

Too many cryptofucks were obsessed with transformers and power rangers. They are going to link up the crypto crew to its final form and emerge out of the ocean to destroy Tokyo

frogsbs, can you explain the poker thing?

generally when less reputable sites perform "scheduled maintenance" amongst rumors they may be becoming insolvent there's a good chance they aren't coming back up

Gotcha, I figured something like that. lol.

yeah iirc during the infamous "Black Friday" where the FBI nabbed a bunch of the big sites the official word was "this is just scheduled maintenance"

unscheduled obsolescence

gdamn when they gonna bring back legal online poker and restock da fish

Ignition/Bovada has been pretty good over the last couple years, I'm actually a little concerned that a lot of that was crypto money

yeah i still have an ignition account actually had an insane run there like five years ago but havent played much since, its still not the same tho we need another poker boom

how about online poker but it's that one game where you put your knuckles flat on the table and then the other side slides a quarter toward the other player's knuckles as fast as possible, and the winner is whoever plays the longest

feel like legalization is coming eventually, it's so insane that half the commercials you see during a sports broadcast now are for Fanduel or whatever while online poker is still in this weird limbo

for me the trick to Ignition is getting off the Zone tables and onto the regular ones, Zone is pretty reg infested and even when you do spot a fish you don't know when they're at your table again. the regular tables on the other hand get pretty insane, even when you're not playing peak hours

xp
i don't know why i said that

i played online poker for a week and lost all $100

it's so insane that half the commercials you see during a sports broadcast now are for Fanduel or whatever while online poker is still in this weird limbo

yeah - some of the players are now getting endorsement deals with the betting companies. kinda completely weird, but maybe pete rose will get into the hall of fame now

I know it’s uncharitable of me but: have fun being poor, crypto fucks.

astonishing graph. this stuff made it all the way to $90 and is now worth literally a penny

I mean under some theories of value it was always worth literally a penny

pretend money leads to real life mob

Crypto is not pretend! Don't you get it? It is going to make transactions faster! Just you wait and see, mister.

i mean all money is pretend

this pretend money is also unregulated

(laws are also made up)

money has an army

thats right

Yeah, but people without no money have a free Twitter account

I think the one, single prognostication I ever had was in grad school, and a seminar was working with an old emeritus prof on a book he was writing about how the internet was going to be a great boon for democracy. This was just before Arab spring, etc. The smart thing that I did was when we went around the table I said “nooooooooooooooooooo!”

lol

of course the real big story no-one is talking about here is how this is going to have a serious impact on Crawley FC. They are going to become the first UK league club since the days of horses and carts to pay their playing staff in units of less than a penny.

the one, single prognostication

Meant to thrown the word “accurate “ in there because I have been completely wrong thousands of times. And even on this one, I’m sure the Internet will start doing unbelievable things for democracy soon and even Nelson’s “ha-ha!” will be a little brighter and more supportive than it was before

here's that one stock everyone's talking about, the one where if you own it you're actually a giant fucking asshole, regardless of the price:

https://i.imgur.com/U86RNkv.png

it's back at 14 cents. so...if you bought it at less than a cent, or wherever it was a few hours ago, and you sold it now, at 14 cents, if you can find another sucker to buy low, wouldn't you be making a 1400% profit? or am i misunderstanding how the entire thing works

the one where if you own it you're actually a giant fucking asshole

that would be buttcoin i imagine

the one where if you own it you're actually a giant fucking asshole

could you say what it is instead of trying to make people guess?

Terra (UST) the one that has been in the news for collapsing

oh shit, that was another terra. the luna one is, indeed, dead as a doornail!
