Official Bitcoin FUD thread 2020 Q1

FUD means Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt.

FYI-Video of propaganda techniques during a bitcoin conference. The entire 36 minute long video is interesting to watch if you're into seeing how the top people of a MLM scheme behave but I have a link to 7:45 where the true MLM part of bitcoin comes up. Let me know if it gets taken off, I have downloaded a backup and will upload again to youtube.

Therebare idiots in every incestment scheme and every business. Stay away from any MLM having to do with crypto currency. Consider them all scams. Investing on your own xan be great. Either buy and hold or learn about trading

Things like Bit-Coin should not exist. We have the legal ability to eradicate it. We should do so.

Same for Facebook's Libra.

^^ I agree with getting rid of Facebook's Lebra. Facebook already has too much of people's info. They don't need to have people's wallets also...

Bitcoin is priced by the free market and does not have your personal info.

We don't want corporations making their own currency. Get rid of BitCoin, and Facebooks Lebra.

Ponzi Schemes are illegal. The opinion was written by Chief Justice and former President William Howard Taft.

We prosecute people who run ponzi schemes.

Carlo Ponzi spent a decade in federal prison, then his natualized citizenship was revoked and he was expatriated.

He did end up working for Mussolini. But even there he got booted. He ended up in South America where he died sick and broke.

Article about bitcoin mixers which basically makes it more difficult to track who's bitcoins are who's. Bitcoiners use this to make illegal purchases on the dark web. Simply using a bitcoin should be a crime. Please write to your congressmen asking for the use of bitcoin mixers to be outlawed.

We should make cash illegal as well because you can do illegal things with it in person.

Bit Coin should be prosecuted and shut down because people have made their own currency, not because one might use it for illegal stuff.

What is this "Bitcoin" thing? Can somebody please explain it to me? What is it, and how does it work? How exactly are bitcoins produced? How do I use it? I don't know ANY of these things because I'm lazy and stupid!

... but at least I don't make judgments about things I know nothing about...

Whether or not BitCoin is used for money laundering or illicit commerce, it is still a ponzi scheme. Why would obviously intelligent people have any concern over it?

I find it hilarious how butters always talk about the price when it increases but say they're in it for the tech when it decreases. The truth is butters just want to pitch their (decentralized) ponzi scheme to other people so they can sell for fiat at a higher price.

Then there's me who hated pedo pesos since it was at 200 and will continue hating no matter how many poor poor souls are tricked into trading their trusty fiat for imaginary funbucks.

Random dude on the internet talking about storing bitcoin in a hole literally in his backyard, talks about the steps he took to secure it. Be your bank! Money of the future! Below is a copy/ paste from the reddit thread.

printed paper wallet on a fresh linux install to a laser printer

this had both the QR code and a uncompressed WIF key that you can read

"laminated" the paper with packing tape

made a USB stick

the motivation was to make something that could potentially survive the loss of various digital formats - what if in the future nobody knows how to read a JPEG?

with 3 partitions

ext3

NTFS

FAT

put the private key on the USB stick in various formats

word

text file

PNG

GIF

JPEG

3d printed a QR code (public and private key)

each of these three things I sealed up with my vacuum foodsealer

"It's a pseudoanonymous tool to make dark web transactions. Backed by comedy godl."

Welcome back to Who's Bitcoin is it Anyway, where nothing is made up, but it's okay because the points don't matter! BitCoinHodler/CTLennay..... You get 1/2 point for correctly characterizing Bitcoin as pseudoanonymous. However, you lose one point for mischaracterizing Bitcoin as something that is exclusively used for dark web transactions*. You get -1 sillies for the comedy godl bit.

Congratulations, your score is -1/2 points and -1 sillies! Thanks for playing.

*How did I make an Amazon purchase a couple weeks ago by only spending my bitcoins? Is Amazon part of the dark web? Better luck next time....

The comedy godl bit always gets a few chuckles at the socialist meetings I go to.

Amazon doesn't accept bitcoin no clue what you're talking about. If you did (theoretically) use bitcoin on Amazon it's considered a taxable event. Money of the future!

When you do use bitcoin to purchase something online the system actually sells the bitcoin for cash then sends cash to the retailer so the retailer doesn't actually hodl any funbucks.

Hilarious person brags about making their first bitcoin transaction. Comments are congratulating her while also stating their first transitions were heroine/shrooms on the silk road. Then there's another comment chain on the fees involved and how easy it would theoretically be for her to scam them paying by bitcoin. Money of the future! I love holding my breath everytime I try to purchase something!!!

I agree and I don't.

The type of people who like bitcoin would probably spend their time trading stock options or penny stocks in an effort to get rich quick without doing any work if bitcoin didn't exist. The other type of people who like bitcoin would spend their time advancing libertarian ideals. Bitcoin is a good way to let undesirables waste their time.

Then there's people like me who enjoy reading bitcoin stuff when pooping cause the things these man children post is hilarious, true comedy godl.

Avatar for san_jose_guy

But they shouldn't be trading stock options either. No information which they could have has any predictive value. They are just betting against the fund managers.

What they should be doing is putting their own money into their own affairs, investing in themselves and building up a brain trust.

Are you sure you're the king of the trolls? Satoshi got a bunch of losers to buy into some imaginary internet coins which turned into some weird cult. Satoshi is the greatest troll ever and creator of some of the best comedy godl.

If you told a hodler bitcoin was a scam they'd have the same reaction as someone from ISIS being told Allah wasn't real. Look at this very obvious cult like thread. This is honestly something that's very fascinating to watch in real time.

It would have been hilarious if Craig Wright had the keys to the genesis block basically proving he was Satoshi or had close ties to him. I think given his court case if he were Satoshi he'd prove his keys by now so it's safe to say he isn't.

Wright simultaneously created a coin more useful than Bitcoin yet more scammy at the same time.

In the latest episode of you cant make this shit up, Craig Wright claims attorney client privilege and points to the LinkedIn of Kenyan lawyer which reads "I am lawyer" I think I've gotten more enjoyment out of crypto laughing at the people in the space than most have gotten "investing" in it.

Reddit user starts to question whether or not bitcoin is a true store of value. This is bitcoins first true test through a global crisis, I hope it doesn't kill it forever, I still have more comedy godl I'd like to mine.

I'm kind of stuck in a weird place with bitcoin because when the price goes up the bitcoin manchildren are more likely to actually talk to me, when it goes down they stay in their caves :(.

Sir this is not a chain to talk about blockchain fundies this is supposed to be about memes.

I'd bite if there could be higher concentration of comedy godl per minute in a video, this is just two crypto "experts" jerking each other off on how "this is good for bitcoin". See my first post on how crypto door to door salesmen are taught that no matter what everything is good is crypto.

Now having said all that, amazon doesn't bitcoin.

Post note, notice how Amazon is NOT one of them on this list. If the door to door bitcoin salesmen lie about buying something on Amazon using bitcoin what else are they lying about? Make sure to do your own research! They're trying to get you into a decentralized ponzi scheme!
