    Lifetime Opportunity missed… Bitcoin

    Most of us were here when it all started and we’re afraid to invest in it

    Imagine if SBR had offered bitcoins 5 years ago and not Target gift cards? would have a rich set of SBR PROS here.

    My 32k in "pizza card" bet points now worth over 4k. Tell us again US NON PRO'S why you cant scrape up a hundy.

    Question for Bitcoin owners....I bought yesterday via Glidera on AirBitz.....because they only take US Bank accounts there's a 4 business day processing time.....does my price lock in when I bought?

    never bought from Airbitz but I've bought a few times from Coinbase and the price is locked in at what you bought at...not certain but I can only assume it's the same for Airbitz?

    I guess you will have to sweat it out and find out in a few days

    even the people who are holding Bitcoin wish they bought/held more...

    I'd have a 7 figure crypto portfolio if I held everything and was a bit more aggressive...

    Agree. Yeah you won't become a millionaire but still can make good money. Some finance guy said that Bitcoin could be worth 40k by the end of 2018.

    Could have gone to zero just as easy.

    One day, the flow of square money into bitcoin will stop, or the government will decide that it no longer wishes Americans to buy bitcoin to launder money, or the miners will shoot themselves in the head with continued forking, and bitcoin will be a thing of the past.

    LB Ive never once said the eagles will be in the super bowl.....Am I a fan? Of course I am, this has been my home for all but 6 years of my life. I don't think being excited by how they are playing is a bad thing. I'm also a realist, there are glaring holes in this team. Their offensive line is probably the weakest link but hopefully they can keep it together. To read comments from Minny Fats about all the breaks they are getting when they are blowing teams out is just laughable. There will be a hundred posters telling philly fans I told you so after they lose a game, that's a fact.

    Now to answer your question, sure, buy your Wentz jersey and lets have a Minny Mini Bash in Feb

    If I ever run into Bryan Micon drinks are definetly on me. Only started with BTC to fund a poker account on Seals with Clubs. Paid $45 per coin for my first deposit and remember I was terrified it would crash as soon as I did. God bless that man

    I once had 200 bitcoins. Sold when it hit about $400. Sick to my stomach over it everyday. I never bought back in. I did buy Ethereum at $10 and sold at $48. But never got rich or even close to it.

    Lot of speculation that bit coin leverage fueling stock market and vice versa.

    Will not end well.
