    I just wire to Kraken, and setting that up wasn't hard at all.

    Is it a similar setup to Coinbase where you can either login via your bank account or just provide routing/account # information? Also, I'm sure I can just look this up but I'm lazy, do they have a mobile app?

    Go to the coinbase or crypto subreddits and see how many people got fucked over. They’re sketchy as fuck

    Setting up an intermediate account now. Going to dabble for a few months until I get the hang of it

    No kraken doesn't have the instant/free ach deposit option yet, which is a positive for coinbase. Not sure on the app.

    I don't dislike them. I was buying through Gdax, which later became coinbase pro, back in 2017-2019. It is a perfectly fine and reputable company, although they do often crash when the price goes nuts. They're going public soon. Their fees are just quite a bit higher than other options. I don't know anything about the comment above about people getting fucked over. As far as I know, that's not the case.

    I know you’re active in the investing thread. How much does this trigger you?

    A good investor doesn't dismiss alternate investments in spite or anger. In my opinion, of course.

    Nah. Let him fight it. The best performing asset by far of the last 10, 5, and 1 year is staring him in the face. He doesn’t know why and feels smarter picking stocks in a market propped up by central banks even when they massively underperform btc.

    It’s more fun when they’re wrong but don’t quite understand why.

    Again, he misses the point. "Owning" gold if you have the physical fucking bars is way different than owning shares of Barrick Gold Corp or some gold ETF. That is what people miss. Owning Barrick Gold is owning a "non-productive asset" for the purpose you are owning it.

    I love having enemies. Hate is an incredibly underrated emotion, it motivates like no other.

    Plus nobody is going to mistake me for a good investor, I've been at this stock thing for 12 months now.

    Nah. I’ve been fighting the fight for more than 3.5 years. I’ve seen the story. You’ll be curious and look into it or you won’t. Doesn’t matter either way.

    Well, looking at your Fan Of section makes me think you're probably at a higher level of hate than the rest of us can achieve.

    The four consecutive Super Bowl losses had to mentally damage you a bit, there's no getting out of that unscathed.

    not gonna lie I’m in it for the quick buck. I do see value long term but if it doubles or triples in the next year. Tight. If not, well, I can risk it .

    That's the guy user15000 always links to. User15000 also uses the market cap meme in here all the time because he is easily influenced by social media marketing tactics.

    I'm hearing Dogecoin has higher upside than Bitcoin in the interim if user15000's information channels are legit.

    It’s the first and only if it’s kind. That’s what you seem to not understand. I don’t know why people keep buying shitcoins. Same reason they play at the casino and play state lotteries or bet on sports.

    They are all irrelevant in the game bitcoin is playing. Bitcoin is going to destabilize everything. ALL human value will be stored on Bitcoins network at some point. At this rate maybe by next week

    Warren B: Don't buy bitcoin because there is no underlying utility

    Warren B: At the time of the Louisiana Purchase the land had no utility

    What a weird comparison to make. Is he saying Louisiana still has no utility? A dude who chooses to live in Omaha thinks Louisiana still has no utility?

    Or is he saying he's a BTC bull?

    Few Understand!

    Maybe best not to rely on the 90 year old who largely missed every tech investment in the last decade+ to understand the investment case for bitcoin.

    Just what I posted...TMBers, moms and pops, students, user15000s that spend all their time on Twitter, etc. Non-professionals, basically.
