i really donīt know if I have more somewhere else but if you are interested in this huge one time chance I have around 50 old discs here what i can sell you for 1000 dollar each.
maybe you are lucky. BUT: no guarantee if there are bitcoins or only old porn pics.
in the last case you only have to wait until pornpics are back to 20.000 each because they become the new world currency ;-)

So for YOU BTC is "gambling", found money, nothing to worry about....so what is the difference if I bought 10 at a low price and sit on them for years until I make as much as you did?
For that NOT to happen BTC would have to be worth much less in the future, or nothing at all. THIS is what you are betting on? Then you are a fool. A fool who found some money and now thinks he "knows" everything about BTC and its' future. LOL OK thommy sure sure.
BTC is a gamble but so is most "investing". You can't "spend" stocks or bonds either. You must convert them into cash, just like with BTC.
Besides, IF you are right years from now and BTC goes to zero and goes away, what if I sell mine just before it crashes, at the top end, and make a killer profit? Hmmm? Then I will be just like the great thommy! Ironic, isn't it?
There are high risk investments and "safer", more stable, investments. Now if you had ALL your money in BTC then yes I would agree you are a fool. But if you have say 20% of your investment in BTC and the other 80% in "safe" investments what's the big harm? You make it sound like it's 1929 again and people are about to jump out of windows. LOL
