When I decided to retire from day trading a fellow trader told me to buy some bitcoin and told me how. He said just sit on it. I bought $100 worth. It was about $5 at the time. I retired and totally forgot I had it until the mania when it started hitting about $14k. I was like....wow I have some bitcoin and started looking for my account info. Sold half but still have some. We’ll see where it goes.

See my post #82. I paid cash for 2 new Mercedes with part of mine. One for Hubby and one for me.

There would be another MtGox (not “Mt. Gox”). Exchanges are becoming non-custodial and decentralized, even for bitcoin.

From the picture it doesn’t look like they are doing to bad.

Anyone leaving btc on any exchange deserves to be robbed.

[oblomov]

Agreed.
