David Gerardtr0lly predicted how crypto and regulation would work in 2021
ZxThose curves imply way less volatility than we have come to love from BTC and friends
throAU@davidgerard eh it’s still way up vs 2017
@throAU yes, $16,000 is a bigger number than $20,000, well done
@davidgerard eh. 2016 then.
leidkulturThat’s my favourite BTC-Bro take:
„Too the moon!“
*BTC crashes*
„Still higher than 2020 🤑“
*BTC crashes*
„Still higher than 2019 🤑“
*BTC crashes*
„Still higher than 2018 🤑“
*BTC crashes*
„Still higher than 2017 🤑“
*BTC crashes*
„Still higher than 2016 🤑“
*BTC crashes*
„Still higher than the 10 Cent it was worth at its inception 🤑“
@leidkultur @davidgerard you do you. I put some regular beer money in it as a punt. I’m still at least double what I put in and have enough to buy a nice new motorcycle. But that’s not what I’ve got it for. Some people play the lottery. I don’t. 🤷♂️
@throAU @leidkultur at this point you're not just moving the goalposts, you're trying to replace them with a netball net, but it's on the ground
you go have fun staying rich now
Kevin Kolk@throAU @leidkultur @davidgerard Sorry you missed out on buying a new car with it. Maybe consider cashing out before all it will buy you is a toy motorcycle.
@Siberian @leidkultur @davidgerard if it goes to zero so be it. I’ve considered it no different to money spent on beer - 100% write off. Because that’s where the funds came from - my beer consumption. I’m in it for a mortgage windfall. I’ve been through three crashes and it’s always doom and gloom every time and so far there’s nothing to indicate this one is any different.
kit@lampsofgold @leidkultur @davidgerard see above. Same reason I didn’t sell at the bottom the last 3-4 times
SeanBurlington 🌈 🕊️@leidkultur @throAU @davidgerard remarkably similar to TSLA so far
I mean not exactly the same - but the timing of the rise and fall is close and suggests a common factor
Andrew C (he/him)@davidgerard Well that fits the usual safety regulation lifecycle "All safety regulations are written in blood first, and ink second".
sxpert@davidgerard wasn't too hard, it always works that way
@sxpert well precisely

TudbuT@nathan @davidgerard this is amazing and inspired me to make this:
(yes, git is kinda a blockchain)
@TudbuT i actually went through the git question: https://davidgerard.co.uk/blockchain/2018/02/10/do-you-need-a-blockchain-probably-less-than-wust-and-gervais-think-you-do/
@TudbuT @davidgerard nailed it. No notes.
