In this case, I consider you to be the whiner.

I can recall just a few short years ago, bitcoin was around 1/100th or perhaps 1/1,000 the size of gold, in terms of marketcap.

In recent times (perhaps the last year or so) bitcoin has been bouncing between 1/8th and 1/10th of gold's market cap.

Hardly, anything to worry about, even though folks like you are ongoingly whining that bitcoin is not performing well enough.

I also see no reason to proclaim some arbitrary goal (as decided by you) that bitcoin has to reachin any particular time in order to NOT continue to be the most sound money that man has ever known.

You might perceive that bitcoin is not growing fast enough, and personally, I have no such perception since there is no particular schedule that bitcoin has to meet as long as it continues to serve as the most sound money that is a available, value will continue to gravitate into bitcoin, even if you and some others are seeming to have difficulties perceiving such ongoing gravitation because you are so busy setting up artificial hurdles that bitcoin needs to supposedly cross before it meets your approval.

If we could come up with a bet, then I would be more than willing to enter into the pro-bitcoin side of such bet while you can fuck around taking the side of the inferior (and mostly off-topic) asset that has already proven itself as inferior, even though it has been going through some seemingly recent revivals. 

I would be more than happy to take your money based on how your "opinion" seems to differ from my own, if we can think of some kind of framing that might be bettable, besides our mere ongoing allocations that we are currently taking, which mine is in bitcoin and likely you have some perhaps paper gold that you are fucking around with.. or are you just talking so gleefully about your next best friend (ie gold) and you don't even have any position in it?

I had some lady at a gas station tell me she was visiting from Dubia and wanted me to buy her gold for cash for gas and I told her I don't carry around a acid test kit.

There are fake golds in circulation, but I’ve never heard of anyone getting fake BTC in their wallet .. unless it never arrived in their wallet .

Exchanges aren’t real wallets though..
