Pelahatchie Mississippi. A town with a police force of about 2 (Two). And one really greedy lady that just thought she was savvy in the crypto biz.

Watching the drop over the last 2 days...I am always surprised when it drops this fast.
I know there are reasons for the drop, but still...

Here's a great overview of crypto technology by Matt Levine: https://www.bloomberg.com/features/2022-the-crypto-story/
If you're not familiar with Matt, he writes for Bloomberg and has a knack for explaining highly technical finance things in a simple, and often very amusing way. He's truly gifted. This article is looooong, but worth the read if you want an excellent explanation of the pros/cons of crypto and how it all works (or doesn't). |

My prediction of sub-$20k was dead accurate.
It's now $16k. Sorry if you lost money buying this fool's gold. I predict it will drop to under $10k in 2023.

Bitcoin is either heading towards irrelevance or will hit $250K per coin within six months, depending on who ya wanna listen too ![]() |

Gon fix it with me hammer

yeaaah, I'm sure those boasting the 250K are the ones who bought in at 40K and didn't see the irrelevance coming..
Sucks to be the last one standing when the music stops, and there isn't any chair left to sit on

Exactly. They need to pump it up in hopes they can get out of their position.

Only reason it's not $0 already is because people can't sell when the exchange is insolvent.
Many have already lost 100%

Bot brings forth zombies..
https://www.coindesk.com/price/bitcoin/ $73,086.52 3/13/24 I herd about this dark web crypto thingy early on. I poo-poo'ed it as another vaporware. Shirley it will be shut down by the feds tomorrow. Right? USD stronk. This is just competitive harbinger of undermining. But now I know why. USD is expendable. It seems enough influential people had enough distrust in the current system to create an artificial one. And they want to be able to move valuation internationally. Leading to a globalist currency.
