New York (CNN Business)Don't count Bill Gates among the fans of cryptocurrencies and NFTs.
Those digital asset trends are "100% based on greater fool theory," the Microsoft co-founder said Tuesday at a TechCrunch conference, referencing the notion that investors can make money on worthless or overvalued assets as long as people are willing to bid them higher.
Exactly. Billionaires know not to buy Bitcoin. As do us lesser fools.
You all don't even know the difference between "crypto" and BTC. smh

Saylor said in 2013 when Bitcoin was less than $1,000 that:
He was right!Michael Saylor
#Bitcoin days are numbered. It seems like just a matter of time before it suffers the same fate as online gambling.

Now he's a blubbering old fish holding (or should I say HODLING) Bitcoin from over $30,000 with a loss of $1 BILLION dollars!

Saylor is not a billionaire. His net worth is probably a few millions and he is barely hanging onto that.
Re: Bitcoin, crypto currencies, block chain
The SEC required Saylor to mark his Bitcoin to market or Microstrategy would be delisted. He complied.Cool Breeze wrote: ↑Wed Jun 15, 2022 9:22 pmPlease, tell me how he has "lost" money?Guest wrote: ↑Wed Jun 15, 2022 6:44 pmhttps://twitter.com/saylor/status/413478389329428480

Your timeframe was quoted as 8 months. However, since the 8 months, Bitcoin is doing worse and worse compared to gold.Cool Breeze wrote: ↑Wed Jun 15, 2022 9:21 pmHas it been 5 years since 2021?

therefore a "crypto" application, in the current vernacular. Bitcoin
is called a "crypto currency" because its implementation is based on
blockchain technology. However, Bitcoin is only one of an infinite

As a result, tulips rapidly became a coveted luxury item, and a profusion of varieties followed. They were classified in groups: the single-hued tulips of red, yellow, or white were known as Couleren; the multicolored Rosen (white streaks on a red or pink background); Violetten (white streaks on a purple or lilac background); and the rarest of all, the Bizarden (Bizarres), (yellow or white streaks on a red, brown or purple background). The multicolour effects of intricate lines and flame-like streaks on the petals were vivid and spectacular, making the bulbs that produced these even more exotic-looking plants highly sought-after.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulip_maniaEconomist Peter Garber collected data on the sales of 161 bulbs of 39 varieties between 1633 and 1637, with 53 being recorded in the Dialogues. Ninety-eight sales were recorded for the last date of the bubble, February 5, 1637, at wildly varying prices. The sales were made using several market mechanisms: futures trading at the colleges, spot sales by growers, notarized futures sales by growers, and estate sales. "To a great extent, the available price data are a blend of apples and oranges", according to Garber.
During Tulip Mania, many distinctions were made and I suppose at and especially just after the height of the mania, speculators wanted to believe their tulips were unique and special, and maybe even immune from price collapses that other tulips may have been subject to. In the end, they were all just tulips, as they rose and fell together, and today there is just one chart used to portray the Tulip Mania.

** 16-Jun-2022 World View: Decentralized Finance (DeFi) and Smart Contracts
All crypto currencies are not the same, but even if they were, there
are many blockchain applications besides currencies. I wrote an
article about them last year:
** 13-Apr-21 World View -- Investing in Decentralized Finance (DeFi) and Smart Contracts
** http://www.generationaldynamics.com/pg/ ... tm#e210413
What's happening now is that there's an explosion of financial
applications and services, normally provided by banks, brokers, and
other financial institution, that are now being provided on blockchain
platforms as "smart contracts." There are really an unlimited number
of possible apps and services -- insurance, lending, borrowing, asset
management, gaming, day trading, savings, payments, billing, and so
forth. Smart contracts are "self-executing," meaning that once a
particular smart contract is set up, any action that would normally be
taken by a human intermediary in a bank or financial institution would
now be executed automatically by the smart contract.
