Depends when he got in. There are still quite a few whales that got in when bitcoin was under a hundred bucks, Beck may well be one. Folks it remains a fact if you did not buy bitcoin when it was cheap, Under 3 bucks was not that long ago, you missed the chance of a lifetime. There remains many people that are now very wealthy from a reletively small investment in Bitcoin.

Can anyone point me to a website or other public reporting mechanism that shows there is $6B in daily Bitcoin volume?

CNBC here is basically saying, “It is being reported that there is $6B in daily Bitcoin volume and our studies show that it is only 5% of that or $300M”

The weird thing is that every single thing I can find online about the daily volume of Bitcoin says that it is only about $300M.

It almost seems like other CNBC reports which say, “Trump was wrong when he said X” and then I find out that he never actually said “X”.

it was designed as a clandestine money transfer not an investment, anybody that thought otherwise is a fool...

what do they get out of faked transactions ??

... claims that the things are actually used (pretending it is a viable ‘currency’ to sell it to the ignorant) ???

And consider THIS is the most known cryptocurrency and there are a thousand ‘also rans’ out there.

Sorry Bitcoin Proponents, I dont do FADS and have an IQ higher than 60
