Euphoria is a wrong word, since I bought back only about 20% of what I had sold in 19-20.11. (and sold them again at 924 after downtrend was confirmed to me after the first big drop). But nevertheless, it was a good lesson on being right and sitting tight, because both are essential. The results were OK but the zen was not there Now after receiving this lesson, I have no problem being partly fiat even until March, no matter where the price goes meanwhile. In March I will need to start adjusting my bids upwards by 0.7% per day.

There is no fee. We have a company with 628 shares, and the company directly owns certain stuff, such as 1 bitcoin per share. Then it indirectly owns stuff. People own shares, and may buy and sell them. You can offer anything in exchange for a certain number of shares and have it posted to our mailing list. I have traded them vs. silver in the past that is nothing "funny", after all the name is Hopeapankki Holding Oy and silver was the main investment before bitcoin.

Pardon me for interrupting, but I want to publicly thank you both for your contributions to my bitcoin education.

Now, then, one of you sell and the other buy.  This flat-lined market gives me the jitters.

edit:  Hey, it worked.  A spike.  Small but defo better than the last few hours.

I don't think there is a great crowd of anybody(s) following you anywhere. In your mind maybe.

I enjoy your commentary, but don't particularly hold it over several others opinions on this forum.

For instance, one thing that baffles the hell out of me on this "trading" forum is that the majority of us believe BTC will be worth 5 or 6 figures one day. So we only trade to acquire more bitcoin.

Meanwhile, its about 10000 times easier to acquire more bitcoin by trading alt coins. In fact, dozens of people invested $130 or less in Nxt a few months ago and now own the equivalent of 6000 BTC.

That is an extreme example, but there are dozens of more.

I am acquiring more bitcoin by buying and selling, but I am acquiring a crap ton more by acquiring new coins and selling them. I mean its almost impossibly not to increase your wealth that way and its ridiculously less time consuming and stressful than btc trading.

So if the smartest person is the one acquiring the most relative increase of btc, then the smartest person isn't just watching the btc market.

I know that 2 of them have already have. Dozens of others have cashed out a %. And the others havent started yet. There were around 71 initial investors.

You might be surprised.  Bitcointalk.org is ranked #1426 by Alexa in the USA and #952 in Canada, for unique vistors per day.  

Quickly calculating the ratio of "views posts" over a random sampling of forum threads suggests a 40 : 1 lurker-to-poster ratio.  There are at least 50 posters here that follow Risto's posts.  Multiplying that by the lurker-multiplier factor of 40, suggests that approximately 2,000 individuals across the globe are paying attention to what he says.  

Even the MSM picked up his thread about wealth distribution in bitcoin (and unfortunately reported his estimates as facts). 

Usually, I quite enjoy your posts, but this crusade of yours agaisnt RP is getting very tiring for the readers. How about you just ignore him and, do all of us, you included, a big favour.

Hey bitcoin market, do something. The gamblers are getting bored and need their dopamine rush.

Maybe so. I concede. Perhaps there are thousands of people trading based on RPs comments. Its a little scary if true though.

Yeah, I misunderstood the semantics of your posts.
