Bitcoin Blows Past $9,000

There's no "wise" people in this type of speculation, only lucky ones.

There have been plenty of crashes until now, and those who "smelled it" and sold (I did) lost lots of paper profits.

There will be other crashes for sure, and it will be impossible to know if it's the BTC Apocalypse™ or the BTC Yearly Crash™ until late in the process.

Unless, of course, one belongs to the BTC-illuminati.

Yep. If you get out now, maybe you're a genius, because it crashes tomorrow. Or maybe it goes up to $30k on continued hubris, and you're the dumbass that sold early.

Yep, I sold about 20 BTC early on, wish I kept it. I still have a good number, though.

Either way, it's free money to me, so I try not to be too greedy...

Digital gold accessible by the masses and unseizeable (e.g not under 3rd party control) is appealing..
