If you mean can you withdraw your winnings, yes. It’s almost instant. As for buying it there, no idea. If you’re going to use a crypto casino, you should give them as little of your actually information as possible. Also, don’t EVER send crypto from an exchange to stake, you’ll get your exchange account banned. Also also. DONT GAMBLE AWAY YOUR BTC!! Hodl my brother.

Every Monday from 7-9am the Black Bitcoin Billionaires organization runs a group chat on an app called Clubhouse. I am a moderator in that group. We are Bitcoin only and have been doing this for years. You can come and listen or activity ask questions. NO ONE in that group will EVER ask for your keys, passwords or access to any accounts. We simply answer questions. But it’s a nice way for people to get direct answers to direct questions in a conversational format. In a case like yours, we’ll stay online until we answer all your questions. NEVER give anyone access to your keys, passwords or accounts. If he had them in an exchange, I’d guess a few phone calls and a death certificate would get you access to his account. Good luck, I’m rooting for you!

Its a joke and im finally waking up to it.. Essentially if you didn’t get in early (before all the front runners got it) then you are playing a losing game from the start and playing catchup. I’d NEVER EVER reccomend crypto to anyone starting to invest… stay far far away from this toxic shit space

bittabet

Look at the damned price chart, has it EVER actually priced it in? Everyone's known since the first halving about the supply reducing and it's literally never been priced in.

It's totally okay you know why? Because it's a lesson learned from a mistake made and you'll never make that mistake again. There's no substitute for time in the market. You learn things by default over time in crypto that's why people just getting in are easy to dupe but once you have that experience you'll never let it happen again. I sent $6500 in btc to that stupid fake Elon Musk YouTube AD scam in 2020. It hurt 🤕 but I didn't let it deter me. Best myself up for a while. But I kept investing and got lucky when BTC tanked I got back i made $10k profit and used it as the down payment on my house in 2021. Even after that, I have continued to DCA carefully and have made back everything I lost as well as making back the money I used for the down payment on my home. In fact I made it all back plus some. Now sitting and holding. Nobody is EVER going to call you about your crypto account. PLEASE if that ever happens again immediately hang up. You can always contact Coinbase yourself after to verify. I'm sorry this happened to you but I'm happy you caught it. You're already ahead of most of the population in the crypto scene. Just like the Internet, except this time we got to get in early to learn the Dos and Donts before everyone else gets hip. Never lose faith in financial security! You'll make it back don't worry, and don't dwell on it or beat yourself up. It's happened to veteran traders too so do not feel bad. It's part of the growing pains of adoption. Just limit your risk as much as you can 🙏 Good luck my friend!

Never EVER put your seed phrase anywhere online. Don't store it on a computer file, don't snap a picture of it with your phone, don't put it in the cloud. Just write it down with good old fashion pen and paper. Sorry this happened to you and I really hope you get your funds back. Expensive lesson.

generalveers07

WAIT didn't you see the !!CrASh!! yesterday!? Bitcoin pLUmMeTeD back to 65k!?!? HOW ARE WE EVER GOING TO RECOVER FROM THIS 8% DiSaSTeR!!?

Connecting your wallet to any web3 site is a passive and harmless thing. It only presents ypur public key. SIGNING something using your private key is what moves funds or allows funds to be moved. Three simple rules: Do not keep your key on your PC - use a hardware wallet or a qr code-based signing tool such as Airgap Vault. For extra security, use an old airgapped smartphone for Airgap Vault. Do not ever EVER sign something you do not fully trust. Typically, scam airsrop sites will harass you with requests to sign approvals, which means you approve they can move your funds. Do not ever, ever, ever enter your private seed anywhere besides into your hardware vallet/Airgap Vault.

Worst advice EVER!

JustYourUsualAbdul

I’m sorry to say that money makes money and there is no get rich quick meme coin to buy that will give a guaranteed return.. EVER. What you should focus on is DCAing into alts that have a known purpose and a known following. Anything on ISO2022 is worth looking into and investing in the choice you see fit. If you are new here then buy those and then research the different sectors this market has and what you feel and then TACTFULLY invest further. That is the only logical advice someone can give. If you want a 100x, anyone that tells you they know which one, is most likely wrong. Or ignore all that and dump all of it into your favorite meme coin and then talk about how dumb crypto is when it goes -98%.

1. Rewards from BTC mining will halve. Going from approx. 900 per block to 450. 2. Pump has already happened in the short term. Your late. 3. NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!!!!!! Don't be a dimwit. Taking on debt to buy a volatile asset is NEVER, EVER, EVER a good idea. EVER.

SundayAMFN

>False. 1/1000th of profit at 1/1000th of the cost is still same percentage of profit. The problem is it's a lottery game at this point. Even if you buy the best possible setup and put $1000 into an ASIC, your chances of EVER making any money (though it would be a substantial reward) is a tiny fraction of a percent. A cryptocurrency that has smaller block sizes in the future will probably be better suited for decentralization. The problem with bitcoin will only get worse.

Mango_Z14

wrong... there is no need to increase max supply. Bitcoin is divisible by 100,000,000. there will be no changes to max supply EVER

Dash775

There's still SO MUCH xrp on the market. I'm sorry but I'll say it, way too many people in these reddit subs have zero fundamental understanding at all. Green line does not always go up. In this case, green line literally has a ceiling and it will NEVER be the next BTC/ETH/whatever. There is literally so much of it available that it CAN NOT EVER hit the level of BTC.

MysteryLiezer

Statistical impossibility? How many people do you genuinely know (outside of the anonymous stories we read on Reddit) that have lost Bitcoin, forever? It’s sort of a rhetorical question, although I’m more than open to receiving a response from you; I’m just not usually so skeptical, but I know 7 people who’ve been stacking sats since the AlphaBay days, each of which have orange-pilled a few people, themselves, and NONE of us have EVER lost ANY Bitcoin. I just can’t wrap my mind around considering that something happens EVERY DAY, even though I’ve NEVER ran into it in real life! (Don’t get me wrong; I’ve never met someone who’s been struck by lightning, but just because I’ve never encountered it, doesn’t mean I don’t think it EVER happens; still, I couldn’t POSSIBLY ever claim that I believe it to be a STATISTICAL IMPOSSIBILITY [0% chance] for someone to DEFINITELY go a whole day WITHOUT being struck by lightning!) Perhaps you’re over-embellishing, as I’ve been known to take things quite literally, especially after leaving multiple opportunity for the person to be a bit more accurate with what they’re actually trying to express. Forgive me, as it’s hardly even important; I just wanted to make sure I knew what you meant, and I’m quite sure that I do now!

MysteryLiezer

If I’ll be assuming, regardless, with ZERO chance at EVER confirming it, I’d rather assume that Bitcoin creates secret billionaires before I assume that the earliest Bitcoiners were technologically incompetent enough to lose their coins. Once again, I’m assuming either way, just like you would be, and everyone else, as well; it’s just the assumption I choose to believe, in an effort to further shape my future world view, based on my current world view (along with new information).

trezor literally got a massive leak a few weeks ago. No company, let me repeat that, absolutely no company ever will NOT have your date leaked, stolen or sold online. EVER.

Brother xpub was explained above. Your missing BTC “change” is likely on a change address in your wallet. Find your xpub and import to electrum or pair lever with electrum. MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD THE RESL ELECTRUM AND DO NOT TYPE YOUR SEED INTO ANY COMPUTER EVER

iamAUTORE

I truly believe in BTC so I have nothing to sell, EVER. my goal is simple - buy whatever I can afford to buy daily / weekly / monthly or whatever and hold. if I need to pay rent or something else, I cash out in USD for that amount and pay my bills. and have like 1% in a bank for small day to day transactions like food, gas, and water level shit. been buying $100 here and there since 2015. and now recklessly retired - not balling out by any means, but frugal and freeeee!

You finally have enough money at an early enough age that, if you are smart, you will be set for life. The key phrase -- if you are smart. Btw, working 45-60 hours a week is not a ridiculous work schedule -- you can cultivate other areas of your life, but do not EVER compare yourself to the dulled masses. When your peers are out until 2a on workdays, or they work 25-30 hours per week because they want to sleep in until noon every day, you stay quietly disciplined. Find like-minded people, and get better at everything you do. Become a better investor. Become a better friend. Be aware of and pursue your relationship with God. Look for ways, big or small, that you can give back to someone who needs. A life consumed on self-interests will be a life of emptiness and misery -- look for ways to not just build your financial wealth, but also focus on building your "relational wealth" (relationships). Forget the Lambo, expensive cars. Look for ways to work smarter, not harder. Start a business (not as hard to do as you might think). Buy real estate. But don't stop being a shark. You didn't accumulate $100k at 22 by not being one. Do not use credit card debt or car loans (cf. Dave Ramsey on this -- unlike him, I do believe in smart debt, but def agree that credit card debt and cars you cannot afford to pay cash for are bad, i.e. not smart). Find a mentor, someone older, more experienced, such as a successful business owner with a solid work/life balance. Learn from them -- always be on the lookout to learn from the successes/mistakes of others. That's my advice on how to manage the $100k that you have sacrificed to build.

NEVER EVER SELL lock this 1.5 BTC away for the next 20-30 years and your retirement will be golden

If you willingly install malware on your computer, having your funds in a cold wallet isn't going to help you. If anyone ever randomly dms and "tries to network with me" and hands me a line like *"So install our soft on ur main pc so you don't lose access to it, restoring access is very difficult..."*, red flags should be flaming across your screen, sirens should be wailing in your head. Like you said, there were so many basic opsec failures that people just ignore. Any Crypto DMS, off. Any "networking" on telegram, discord, linkedin, twitter, off, off, off. Installing ANY sort of files or remoting in your computer? NEVER, EVER. The rest of the article is tracking down and trying expose the scammers but it should've never gotten past even allowing DMs. Not even trying to shit on OP but it's crazy this ever happens. One guy I know literally got phished a couple days ago trying to "buy mrbeastcoin" from a link on a random FAKE twitter account (come on, man) and even signed the request on his wallet - Transfer control of my wallet to you! Who cares what I'm signing, just do it, I love Mr. Beast! When you're playing with Crypto you're playing for keeps. There's a reason everyone is fucking paranoid in the space.

My wife 1st mentioned it to me when it was about $5 per Bitcoin. I stupidly told her no bc it was a waist of money and it wasn't going to ever take off. She wanted to spend $1,000....its my biggest regret EVER!!!. LESSON LEARNED....LISTEN TO YOUR WIFE

JanPB

Any BIP-39 compatible hardware wallet will work (don't use Ledger, BTW). Make sure they understand to NEVER EVER type the seed into any device whatsoever *except* a hardware wallet.

Theonlyeasyday

Nope. You have to buy a hard wallet. You can look at Ledger or Trezor which are the most popular ones. At that point, there are a bunch of guides. But essentially, you write down your seed phrase on a piece of paper and NEVER EVER EVER show that to anyone. Don't input it anywhere. If anyone ever asks for it, no matter the situation, they're trying to scam you. Then, you just send BTC from the exchange to the public address associated with the wallet

Horror stories LMFAO. The only people who run into issues on Coinbase are doing very shady and illegal shit. I have sent hundreds of thousands of dollars from Coinbase to my bank over hundreds of transactions and they ALL post the next business day I have NEVER EVER had one issue with Coinbase about anything. Every buy. Every sell. Every transfer has worked flawless. The only problem I see with Coinbase is their servers get overloaded during massive volume spikes.

aDDanDrew

Yes but after selling and having that mind set of not owning your coins and not being able to EVER move your coins made me feel like just cutting my losses and moving on.

Lmao. How can there be panic selling if the fucking app crashes? Never have i EVER experienced exchanges crashing when shit is pumping. I’ve seen many times them crashing when the market was dumping though.

he's NEVER moved them. it's not even proven their "his" only speculated many believe there are no private keys for those coins so they are lost forever... or he's dead and has taken them with him to his death. either way it's the exact opposite from how youve portrayed it. he was/is incredibly selfless and never profited of his invention, at least no in a way that is public/unfair. If he did profit he did so like everyone else once he removed himself from the public eye If those coins EVER move it would be big news and you'd hear about it. If he premined and enriched himself bitcoin would have never made it this far in the first place. his selfless act of not being a greedy cunt really laid the foundation for other people to be able to trust in this weird new thing in a way

For the love of fucking god stop wasting time and money on shit coins. NONE of them are or will EVER be worth a single god damn penny. They will always be worthless.

Just to be sure OP didn't see it and think it was an idea to try: > Go to blockchain.com Never, EVER, go to blockchain.com .

Sorry it's a long one!! An interesting perspective Ive recently heard is " what will happen when AI decides what its currency will be "....🤔 think it's gonna choose RMB USD EURO. Nothing EVER comes about and grows to the level that crypto has done for no reason ! Maybe it started as a direct counter to Trad-Fi maybe it was an experiment, who then hell knows all I know is it's here, its not going anywhere and it's here for a good reason. People that continually say things like " crypto going to zero " don't understand what's happening around them and the rate of change especially around finance, and the playing field is going to be unrecognisable in 10 to 15 years, the concept of De-Fi alone has people minds uttery melted when i explain to them what it is, thier brains cannot fathom that lending doesnt come from anywhere exept a bank that rips you the fuck off. It's gaining traction and digital ownership definitely requires a fast, easily accessible, secure tokenism! Which is exactly what crypto does. When I think about what all this innovation can possibly collate into I think along the lines of say gaming. Imagine you boot up say " elder scrolls 9" your in a tokenised game engine where the entire environment is onchain your character, thier possessions the money you earn in game is REAL crypto (hopefully not Bestheada-coin, cause lets fsce it those guys arexdone ) and your objects can be sold and traded, and the characters you interact with aren't programmed to static responses but are AIs playing thier part. It's all hypothetical, but it seems to be where we're headed.

Satoshi is rumored to have between 600k and 1.1 Million BTC on the over 20k wallets he established to mine bitcoin in the beginning. None of them have EVER moved after being mined. Some estimate that somewhere between 1 and 4 million BTC have been lost by users and taken off the market (making the rest more valuable) plus Satoshi's frozen wallets mean the total could only end up being a 15 or 16 Million actual circulating supply. You have to remember that in the early days VERY little value was assigned to bitcoins. I have a friend who had 60 bitcoin on an old iPhone (worth less than $60 at the time) and when he upgraded to a new phone he didn't even bother transferring them over because he didn't care enough to make the effort. NOW people are VERY careful and understand the current and future value much more.

Nobody could EVER scare me when it comes to Bitcoin (and Ethereum probably). All other Alts have a chance to go bust at some point (even Ethereum, although unlikely). I don’t care what anybody says… some of the most promising projects from past bull runs have ended up being scams or have just flat-out lost all interest and will never reach their ATH again.

IAmSomewhatDamaged

Yes. It’s safe. Everybody here will try to fear-monger you and say it isn’t safe, but it is. If you plan on being in the crypto game long-term though, you should probably get a cold wallet at some point to store your crypto/money for added security JUST IN CASE Binance has any issues in the long-run (however unlikely that is). Just keep your seed phrase safe in storage somewhere, written on a piece of paper (and NOT on your cell phone). Don’t EVER give it out to anybody for ANY reason.

"SMALL ONE"... .05 in 67K range?!?! You spent $3,350 and call it small!??!? That one purchase is more than 50% of all owners will EVER own..

Go1den_Ponyboy

Everybody and their grandma has said since the beginning "oh, I wish I just held that bitcoin." Every halving-generation bitcoiner who's sold has made that comment. The "I MUST HOLD FOREVER AND EVER" person is a person like me; who has learned from those people's mistakes and has the privilege of being able to afford my lifestyle with current income and stacking on the side. I'm never selling till I need to, and not sure why that would scare you?

My advice to you dont use hardware coldwallets: buy an old cellphone (I recommend a Iphone or old Galaxy) restore it to factory defaults or reinstall it's OS from scratch VERY IMPORTANT make sure after you have done the step above that the "factory version" that it doesn't have any custom boot software installed like [https://twrp.me/Devices/](https://twrp.me/Devices/), if it has it could allow backdoor access to your phone install a wallet like Bluewallet connecting to your wifi then put your cellphone into airplane mode and "forget" the Wifi networks you used to download the wallet setup a strong cellphone unlock password make sure debugging mode is not activated on your cellphone (this allows backdoor access to it) setup encryption on Bluewallet NOW create your brand new wallet on Bluewallet and never connect your cellphone to any Wifi/bluetooth EVER again, if you know how to tinker with those things you can probably find a way to destroy the wifi module of the cellphone Learn how to use your cellphone to sign offline transactions [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BI0oo1BDNbg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BI0oo1BDNbg) Bing you have yourself a hardware cold wallet you have certified it yourself.

I'm in my 40's and have been buying and selling btc for 14 years. But I got in early and have done just fine for myself. Honestly the latest generation of I MUST HOLD FOREVER AND EVER people kinda scare me. Don't worry I have some BTC I won't sell.

$2,000 euros is 10 weeks of work at 40 hours a week making $5 an hour. Move past it. Admit to your friends what happened, especially if they trade crypto, warn them. Everyone learns their lesson at some point because humans really can't learn vicariously, but it doesn't have to be as terrible for everyone. I'd recommend never using more than 3-5% for 3-5x margin, buuuut, never ever ever ever use your whole portfolio in a single trade. Ever. (Like, what!?! EVER, you hear me!!!) You've got this my friend. Find some decent telegrams and use their calls to test your TA skills and then... still don't margin trade lol You go right ahead, but I urge you to write down what you would have bought with your money instead of margin trading and check back at the height of this bull run. That alone will require therapy for a year. Trust me, it is the way unless you have a lot of time you don't mind spending staring at graphs and losing small amounts of money constantly, are a very attentive and calculated person that can remove emotion from your money (especially if you're starting off broke or nearly broke going in)

This article proposes that ADA could hit $10.00 per coin. However, there are over 35 Billion ADA coins currently minted. So the market cap would be over 350 Billion if the coins were $10 each. That is more than any cryptocurrency other than BTC. From my estimates, the best it could EVER do is a 110B market cap and that turns out to be about $3/ADA. Best of luck, fellow humans!

>Ethereum team pretty much completely gave up on scaling the main chain. they are now solely focused on improving L2s and pushing people toward using them. The Surge phase of Ethereum's roadmap, which just started goes, beyond Dencun and EIP-4844 (proto-dank sharding), and includes enhancements like EIP-1153 for data storage optimization, EIP-7516 for base fee adjustments, and various other EIPs aimed at improving data accessibility, memory handling, validator management, and smart contract security to bolster Ethereum's scalability and efficiency. >NO ONE EVER has a withdraw/payment with L2s I only withdraw fund on L2s. L2s are a great user experience and are supported by major CEXs like Coinbase, Kraken, and Crypto .com. >I hold BTC because i believe it's the best store of value (like gold) This simply makes it sound like your main complaint is that you don't want to do defi. That's your decision, but it has zero impact on the rest of us who want to make our money work and not just sit idle on an expensive, slow (bad user experience) L1 chain like bitcoin.

I had some clients who thought BTC would replace the dollar. I just think that’s so ridiculous/farfetched - at least 70% of the country still has no idea what it even is lol. Wishful thinking - blockchain has a place and is very valuable. For sure think. it’ll rocket up to 100-200 this run but as far as being used as currency I don’t see that EVER happening

You have to delete the question "Is the price too high / low" from your mind. You want bitcoin? You have cash over to invest? You buy bitcoin. A week / month later you repeat it. I'm buying since years and I NEVER EVER tried to time ANYTHING. I wanted bitcoin, so I bought it. Happy right now that the price never had an influence on my buying decision. best strategy for myself was: Having X Amount of Dollars on my Account for everyday stuff like rent, food, gas, emergency, fun, vacances and weekends. And everytime I was over like 8k-9k $ on my bank account I just put it into bitcoin, no matter the bitcoin price.

BTC/LTC ratio NEVER EVER LIES. And for the record the ratio it is still waaaaaaay out of historical norms.   The average price to buy 1 BTC has historically been under 200 LTC = 1 BTC. This last burst we dropped from 800 LTC = 1 BTC to around 689 LTC = 1 BTC. Still a long way to go to get back to norm. See here: https://i.imgur.com/ev6xhO8.png The BTC/LTC ratio is at an extreme range right now and is about to snap back to norm.

Ok, hold on, nobody is broke because they are wrong. Either people bought Bitcoin or they did not. Either they made some money, or they didn't. If you made money...FANTASTIC. If you didn't then there's no need to be upset, because life is about ups and downs. There are alot of ways to make money. Sometimes people win, sometimes people lose. Consider it a learning experience. "Could Have's" in life will will eat your inside's out. "WHY" didnt i do this or that, is pointless. "Y" is a crooked letter, nobody EVER got it straight!! Learn from your mistakes and move on. People are upset because they didn't make "QUICK, EASY MONEY, WITH A RIDICULOUS RETURN RATE!!". Jesus, they're less happy making several million over a course of a lifetime if they invested their 401k's or IRA's right, because it's literally not like Bitcoin, which is almost like the return on selling drugs, INSTANT BIG MONEY. So, everybody just relax and chill out and think about your next moves.

Did you know that the state of Washington has no corporate income tax where Starbucks is registered in? Besides, why should corporations pay similar tax rates to individuals? It would remove any incentive for corporations to start and innovate. It's a capitalist country, meaning there is a push for corporations to start and build something because they employ people who then spend their money on goods and services that fuel the economy. I agree that some loopholes should be closely monitored if not closed down, but the comparison of tax rates at the corporation level and individual level is stupid. Starbucks paid $1.35B in 2023 for taxes.....which is an amount that we will never contribute in taxes....EVER in our entire blood line.

Satoshi burned the seed phrase as soon as people started buying, trading, and using it. He probably has a decent wallet. But what he did was necessary otherwise people would get scared if they EVER moved once.

NEVER look back. Remember, someone paid 10,000 BTC for a pizza. Hindsight is 20/20 and you’ll never enjoy the outcome. Remember when BTC was just release and was pricing in at 0.10 per full coin? Imagine where you’d be if you had invested (and held) just $1000 back then. Ya, this is why I don’t look back. EVER.

NotEnoughProse

One of my first purchases, EVER, of crypto—when it felt scary even just depositing USD into this sketchy-seeming website "Coinbase"—was ETH at $390. It immediately dropped %15 or something, and I got scared and sold. My ETH average purchase now is \~$1800.

palatabletractor51

I'd say that this is not really about Bitcoin per se, or any other coin or currency. It's about wealth. You should not let people know about your wealth, EVER. People get jealous, it's beyond our control. Especially if the people in your circle are going through financial hard times/work a job they don't like/don't have enough practical self-confidence to grow themselves. Their eyes will be fixed on your back, as good friends as they can be. It's something beyond reason - it's about survival. Be humble and gentle, always. And keep your wealth to yourself. For me, having money has shit to do with Lambos and mansions. It's about freedom! ;)

Only EVER invest what you can afford to lose ALL of. Doing anything else makes you an idiot other people make money on.

AggressiveAd8812

Sh!t happens. Inseriously doubt there are many people in the crypto space that haven't lost a large amount of money at some point. In 2017/18 I made and lost over 300k, in 2020-2021 I thought I was safely leveraged (low 2-3x) on some alts which became the majority of my port as things went up. Then that first crash happened in May and knocked out over 70% of my pnl, crashing through SL's without triggering them. I freaked out, pulled everything from the market, lost over 70k then sat on the sidelines as I 'played it safe' waiting for a clear HTF entey to re-enter which never came as I was so stressed. Rejoined the market right near peak of 2021 high and then lost most of it anyway in the FTX saga. Only EVER invest what you are willing to lose. It doesn't even have to be a market play, it could be an exchange going down, being hacked, disaster destroying hard walleta etc. I've been following BTC since 2012 and heard em all. Other than that, remember the market it always there. This cycle isn't finished, then it will top and you can short it all the way down. Then there will be another cycle, and another cycle. etc Best advice I can give is don't rely on crypto for everything in your life, focus on IRL dreams and realities, invest in BTC. Build a business to become successful or whatever it is you want to do and treat crypto like any other investment. Who knows, in 10 years and another few cycles it might be $1 mil.

tyinthebox

No one knows. Learn more about investing. Build a diversified portfolio. Give it time. DON’T EVER PANIC. Some parts will win and some will lose but you can always adjust.

There is a million stocks investments and deals to take profits on but be sure to have a core holding if BTC that you don’t sell - EVER

Someone explain this to me. In every other case, if I want to spend money on something, I wait for it to go on sale or shop around to find a good price, a lower price. If I have something I want to sell (a car, a house, etc) I'm usually waiting for market conditions to produce a higher price on those items so I get as much for my assets as possible. Why do people depart so readily from this when we're talking about stocks or Bitcoin? "Oh! The price is down! Better sell!" Or, "It's nearing as EXPENSIVE AS IT'S EVER BEEN, better buy now before it's too late!" The psychology is weird, but absolutely not uncommon. What drives this?

I haven't ever yet heard of anyone EVER regretting holding. Not once have I heard of someone saying "I wish I sold 10 years ago" If I can buy a few more sats I will.

I don't think you've got anything to worry about given that, so I would not stress too much (i know i know). See what their support says. Don't EVER give that seed to anyone over a support call if you didn't know.

On another note, I have never, EVER used the word 'ducks' while texting or otherwise typing in my phone. Thanks, autocorrect. There are two other perfectly valid words that I could be using and neither is about water fowl.

Here's a news flash, some of us own BTC on principle and not for a profit. If you don't believe in fiat why would you EVER trade your BTC for fiat?

OMG who would EVER listen to this guy?

Everyone gets Bitcoin at the price they deserve. There is literally 0 reason to ever sell for more fiat. EVER. Until you get that, you don’t get Bitcoin. Back to the books.

Yep. I saw this with DASH back in December 2016/January 2017, people were saying it was a scam. But it wasn't. I exchanged it for another coin that didn't do nearly as well. DASH later went to over $1000 that same year...from...wait for it...$13. Never and I mean EVER believe these posts. It's almost always because someone has capitulated and the price is ready to start ramping. Whenever someone shitposts about a token, and I hold it, I know that I'm unlikely to do poorly from holding it and very likely to suffer if I sell it. XRP will likely head towards $5...but as always, never invest money you're not prepared to part with.
