WSB

TheMajesticPrincess

WSB doesn't allow crypto discussion because there's so many scams and pump&dumps that it would undermine the legitimacy of their Reddit I believe. I think it would devolve into people endlessly posting "haha I gained 10,000% on this meme coin"

Prestigious_Exit8717

Fair point, subreddit specialization actually works pretty well. WSB already has enough wild energy with just stocks, adding crypto would be like throwing gasoline on a fire

Skeewampus

There are plenty of subreddits about crypto. I’m sure they don’t want people talking talking stocks there. That is the rule of the WSB subreddit. I’m sure most members their accept and trade crypto. They just choose to keep the discussion focused on stonks and not other things.

Defending himself during the GameStop-WSB-Robinhood affair, Steve Cohen said of floating $1B to another hedgefunder getting beat up by the short squeeze "you have to understand, a billion dollars isn't that much money to me". He wasn't flexxing, he was just saying a fact. He was apologizing/justifying his actions.

The single worst investment that's echoed throughout every large financial sub is "It's not a loss if you don't sell". It's a meme from WSB, then all the noob came because of GME and thought it's a serious Investment 101 Guideline. The reality is, you lost your money the moment you hit "BUY". Then regain it back when you SELL.

ImOakOrAmI

It’ll likely take hundreds of billions. Degenerate WSB style nation state fomo. I don’t see it happening, because that’s not how nations operate, but I could easily be wrong.

kgal1298

Like WSB that banned everyone in a separate subreddit the other day for calling out how they ban so many people. Truly Reddit mods are a special breed.

This thread's incredibly revealing of who pays attention, I presume they're WSB newbs from the Covid influx

AutisticGayBear69

You remind me of the guy on WSB who yolo’d the inheritance from his nana into intel.

Is it that you go back back to WSB? Cause that would be cool.

2hurd

Yes, I think buying an asset close to it's historical highest price is recommended by every expert on WSB. Buy high, sell low is one of the most common investment strategies in the world. Everyone is doing it so it must be good.

Regards like you is why the Bitcoin space looks immature as fuck. Counterfeiting creates an identical duplicate. Fractional Reserve does not create an identical duplicate, it creates a hole in someone's in house accounting. If Fractional Reserve creates the 21,000,001st Bitcoin on the blockchain then you will be correct. Go back to r/WSB where you belong.

I’m not against it, never even said that But this belongs in a different sub. None of these transactions are happening with crypto. They are fiat transactions. The entire point on bitcoin is to move away from the problems of fiat. This community is working to make adoption happen. ETFs are not anything directly connected to cryptocurrency. Honestly, this post belongs in one of the stonks or WSB subs or another brand of finance.

Best description, i might add he exchanged $100 million for 350k twitter follower. He should go straight to the WSB hall of fame.

Zwetzak69

This guy is active on the WSB sub. What do you think? Just another "need money quick" junkie, like so many other people. While we're going to get rich slowly, he'll still be stuck with the same mentality 20-30 years from now. Not everyone can make it, and I'm totally fine with that. Imagine if everyone was able to retire early... Our economy would collapse.

Privateer_Lev_Arris

BTC is kind of in spirit what WSB was. Community driven rally of a specific commodity. The only issue is that the sentiment and liquidity have been fragmented by altcoins to some degree. Plus the institutional investment has changed the landscape considerably.

dickingaround

Well, let's not over-sell WSB. Plenty of stuff in there is 0day futures and tons of leverage. Seen plenty of people take 95%+ losses that even BTC-USD exchange rates rarely deliver (more like 75% kind of swings :)

mk0aurelius

Thatoneguy_501st

I do not need to „put my money where my mouth is“. We are not on WSB here. But by the stuff I am seeing here I slowly think we are. I came here to hear counterarguments and debates not be called a peanut brain just because ppl don‘t agree these days. I buy and hold assets and stocks for the long term. I don‘t play around with debt and derivatives. Just too much risk involved. Goddamn people really can‘t have a normal conversation these days.

Because while Bitcoin has a ton of fanatics here, they’re the most financially illiterate people I’ve met on Reddit. Literally worse than WSB.

Just buy BTC and hold. If I’ve learned anything over 3 cycles, it’s this. Otherwise just go to the casino (at 21) or WSB and play options (at 18).

International-Ad3147

No way this goes tits up…more of a WSB post. I like BTC but this is too much.

ThreeTonChonker

You seriously think you’re going to get any interesting conversation or potential solutions in this sub? The mods disappeared when moons failed. Half the threads are brigaded by buttcoin and WSB. This is the worst subreddit on this entire site.

ThreeTonChonker

Oh we’re at the point in the cycle where buttcoiners, WSB, and other morons try to scare the crypto subreddits with boogeymen. “No dude quantum is very real” Shut the fuck up. “No dude you don’t understand, crypto will never figure it out and neither will anyone else.” Shut the fuck up. No one in this sub has any clue what they’re talking about and anyone who thinks devs won’t figure out how to protect networks from quantum is a moron.

This is so regarded WSB is jealous.

1) The risk is not there. It is in your head. Same as those propped up values, they only exist in the US. It is the reason to have a global and factor diversified portfolio. It is designed to eliminate all idiosyncratic risk, so that all is left is lowest amount of volatility that can not be diversified away and is inherently to how a market works. Fiat or not. Aka, the Newton example. 2) It is exactly the same as buying gold... Except when you buy stocks, you at least have some income from it. Therefore it will always exist, as people need income. Either through work or investments. A BTC balance will trend to 0 every time you buy something. 3) Only a very small part number of stocks on indexes make up the largest majority of gains. It is how the indexing principle works. It is one of the reason why individual stock picking on average doesn't work. Even Warren Buffets gains are explained this way with all the research that has been done in the last decades. He intuitively discovered factor investing before it was a thing and all while keeping a fair amount of leverage. Your right about one thing. For all I care, e.g. those SPACs, they can go out of business ASAP. But as far as I know, those companies are not an important % in my ETFs and are only there to the indexing principle. But in the end they do not matter. But you still seem under the impression that investing is propping up values, so you can sell shares for a higher price then you bought them. This mentality is a WSB one. And doomed for failure. While in real life it is owning a piece of a business, where that underlying business creates value, by converting time, energy or material into other value. Which can then be sold or served to people and other businesses. X) Your apple example does not work if the second year your paycheck gets 50% lower too... That is what deflationary means.

Cat-a-mount

And I owe you a bunch of apologies if you thought I was talking about you! Just adding onto the conversation. Certainly not implying that you were the target of any of that whatsoever. So I'm glad you shot that response so that I could clarify that that certainly was not at all any kind of Description or target or relation to you at all. And I thought about it and I thought that there's a bunch of people that just struggle to understand business and even math and even logic and it's hard for them to see that buying her coin is a bad idea. They might be brilliant at something but it might not be this type of decision-making. And if a bunch of people on Reddit or WSB fell for that crap and now they're crying about it being her fault that holy fuck shit look in the mirror. But I do also think that there's a segment of the population that is The easiest to deceive and the least able to detect it and the least able to afford it. There's a lot of people in the senior population that fall into that kind of category and there's obviously laws protecting them. But there's people that have reduced brain power in certain areas across all kinds of ages all kinds of reasons. And I am sorry some of them lost money in this coin. But as for the big shot dick swingers on Reddit, please don't cry to me that that investment didn't go well.

I think you’re overlooking that state governments already invest taxpayer dollars all the time—in stocks, bonds, real estate, even commodities like gold—as part of managing pension funds and rainy-day reserves. Allocating a small percentage to Bitcoin isn’t “playing WSB,” it’s just another diversification play and an inflation hedge. This isn’t a pump-and-dump scheme; it’s a long-term, institutional approach. Ignoring Bitcoin outright means missing out on a now-legitimate asset class that major firms and some central banks view as a strategic reserve. They’re not “only here to make a buck”—they’re pushing for their States to do their fiduciary duty by seeking returns and protecting taxpayers against the dollar’s eroding purchasing power.

Bitcoin R Squared compared to the S&P 500 in April is 0.06 For the WSB lurkers, that means decoupled.

I was part of the whole GameStop thing years ago, I remember when WSB was tiny as fuck. After all that blew up with the squeeze, GameStop got heavy into block chain. I was totally expecting them to use all their new money and build an NFT based game launcher, where the tokens themselves served as a license to your game. No lol, it was just another wallet that died shortly after. I still think a game launcher that uses NFTs under the hood as a license key to games makes sense. Seamless trading, reducing piracy, etc. I'm a software engineer but I'll admit I haven't put much thought into it.

Sideways_X1

I feel like almost every wealth opportunity has these types. For BTC it is why money wasn't thrown in earlier. Entrepreneurs will say someone took their idea or they just didn't do the thing fast enough. Further down the delusional road there will be the WSB types, gamblers, and lottery loyalists. I often also hear boomers talking about why they just missed getting that job, having that love, or making that trade. Everyone's gotta cope. Honestly I've had some version of each, because come on, "what if!?"... I just try to do it less and be thankful things have turned out far better than I deserve.

Post-Rock-Mickey

There’s a guy who took a loan of €50,000 with an interest of 6% I think to buy TSMC shares (he has screenshots he bought it at WSB). That was when TSMC was floating around $170 - $190. Look at it now. If you can stomach that and able to repay it, but it’s still a hard pass for me.

Theta_Prophet

Make sure to post your RDDT DD over on WSB

Hitchie_Rawtin

This is 99% of these subs since WSB invaded in 2020, it won't get better. They're used to thinking 10% drops are life-ending experiences.

Remember where you are. It’s like WSB but even dumber.

DryGeneral990

It literally ended when some regard posted in WSB about how strong BTC was.

Canik716kid

10 years ago a crack commando unit WSB was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune.

ThreeTonChonker

People need somewhere to put their money that’s immune to Trump. Also can’t forget: a big fuck you to all the trolls from Buttcoin, WSB, shitcoin bag holders, etc. Get wrecked. Can’t wait for this sub to tell me how this isn’t actually good news.

Did you try to buy or sell GME during the WSB pump?

CipherScarlatti

That's a WSB story.

waddle_away

For as long as WSB has existed (probably even before but I’m regarded) a pump and dump is in the name. Stock goes up then dumps within a short time span. I’d like to know where your clarification of “a slow trend to the bottom” has come from. They’ve always been quick to bottom.

jbone027

Hehehe... My bad, I didn't know "ATM" meant 3 months ago. If we are going to play the zoom out game. Look at the 6 months and again, by no metric is BTC outperforming or holding up as well. Ya lost playboi, and you were mad while doing it. GG. Do some research next time you make some dipshit assertion and/or at least provide context such as "looking at the 3 month chart". Doing so lets the rest of us know how the mind of a regard works! See ya on WSB!

Those are satirical memes from WSB but noobs swooped in at 2021 and thought it's a religious mantra for financial freedom.

ThreeTonChonker

I never said it was for personal gain, did I? I said half of these haters are from WSB, SuperStonk, or political subreddits and are only here to hate.

ThreeTonChonker

I get all of that, I was responding to the anti crypto WSB bros who come here to pretend that holding onto crypto is a bad idea.

ThreeTonChonker

Anyone who’s pushing an ideology while pretending to be part of the group they’re pushing that ideology onto. In this case it’s a mix of anti-crypto WSB bros and anti-Trump and bitter dorks who are jealous of crypto’s success.

Tiny_Philosopher_784

Man, you know it's gone sideways when WSB invades. Our only hope is that he "likes the stock."

ThreeTonChonker

God, the one thing I love more than anything when it comes to crypto is how quickly the doomers and haters and shills from the shit subs just disappear with their bullshit and realize they’re poor because they’re stupid and would rather hate than understand. Fuck off out of this sub and go back to playing options in WSB or writing manifestos on why Bitcoin will fail in /r/technology or wherever else idiots congregate.

Glum-Wealth-6171

It's about TSMC it's all over reddit and WSB.

2CommaNoob

Yeah; I’m laughing at all the idiots whining about the huge gains with their weird ass mental gymnastics. Obviously; they haven’t experienced catastrophic losses before. If they have; they know it can go just as fast and are grateful for any positive gains no matter where they came from. That’s why I like WSB more. They know about catastrophic losses and won’t take good fortune for granted.

OisinT

Between the username and being more concerned about your portfolio than actual WWIII... I'm more and more convinced the crypto space is just WSB for smooth brains.

KindfOfABigDeal

I have a friend of mine who is a pretty down to earth guy, never thought of him as a WSB degen, who around the Doge coin explosion went ahead and bought a few million Shibu Inu coin. He knew it was a joke, but he said "if it doubles or something" he could make a quick buck. Sometimes i ask him about it and we both just laugh (he obviously is never going to make even his money back on it) It was then that solidified to me, no one treats crypto as currency, they just see it as crazy, possible 20x asset, maybe. I know thats not a remotely a new sentiment around here, but seeing it so randomly demonstrated by a random friend of mine was funny.

moonRekt

After I watched that guy on WSB theoretically earn half a million dollars AH on Reddit earnings puts only to watch it all disappear in morning… yea I’m salty too

moonRekt

I wish I had motivation to panic cash out like ya’ll but I don’t feel like paying off a 3% mortgage and I sure as shit ain’t paying for my wife’s student loans. So I just HODL. Even gold and good stocks are dipping, this is healthy for society imo in a perfect world the people on r/CC and r/WSB who just day trade and make 10x what a normal salary person all lose their shit and only labor and value provided to society is worth anything. Except that won’t happen, it’s just an orchestrated crash so the poor can sell their assets for safety while billionaires just buy the dip they created and even richer. But that’s my silver lining explanation to our price drops

You literally post on WSB, youre not an investor hahahaha

I just joined this sub 2 days ago as someone new to bitcoin but experienced in the stock market. I thought it would be a bit more serious. Discussions of technical analysis or news events likely to move the price. Turns out this place is just WSB but for Bitcoin. Just memes and calls to HODL. I'm still enjoying the sub but it does make me question the validity of crypto. Lol.

Full180-supertrooper

ummm ok let me be real since I'm going to take a wild guess that you are relatively young and new to this space. my apologies if not but ur words reek of "I have unlimited eagerness to jump in crypto and destroy my finances" kinda vibe so... First step: put back all the rent $ you siphoned off your checking account. and also the $ sniped out that was for your car payment, cc's, gas, etc. You know, those small things that keep us human'ish. You do not need to admit you did anything like that. Its cool. Everyone in crypto has done it in some way but.... Just put the $ back and chill. The WSB guys own the Wendys dumpsters space as true RWA's at this point given liquidations and the usual regarded things they do. No room for crypto noobs to move in with them. Step 2: actually finish step 1. You can get more info after completing this. The casino doesnt want you homeless, they prefer to wipe ppl out who can then go home to cry in their own space and not sleep in their parking lots. See u in a few months. Dont get evicted. Its ok to move back into moms basement tho.

Gamer_Grease

Yeah I think the message of getting rich quick gambling on crypto has integrally linked it to the mainstream financial system. It’s gone from being an alternative currency, to being a “store of value/digital gold,” to being pretty blatantly a WSB-style gambling outlet.

_Commando_

Lets go smooth brain army, unite against wall street again. Calling on WSB as well!

Hitchie_Rawtin

It happened last bull run, once the WSB diamond hand brigade entered and inflated this sub from 1m to 7m in a year it's been nonsense to read. Devs from any projects rarely post here any more, used to be frequent enough back in 2017, communication and dialogue. Now the few who interact get downvotes unless it's a rare comment from Vitalik.
