i bought some silver when i pulled back to $40 and then some more at $30. then i bought some more at $25. i need to buy some more now but im afraid with my stragety it might hit $5 since every time i get some more it goes down. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Investing in Bitcoin seems even more crazy than having faith in fiat currency to me. I have been buying silver since it was on its way down from ~$31 and will buy all the way back up to atleast $30. Buy at regular intervals even if it's just a little or you will be grasping Bitcoin (air). |

The volatility of bitcoin is what gets major attention. The high upswings is what got people interested in buying into it. Fortunately the volatility is what scared me away from it. I would have loved to be in before the big boom but I knew better than to get in after.
I was just wondering about our bitcoin millionaire the other day. Hopefully he got out in time. |

You just disappear to keep people from harassing you to death and running scams on you I'd guess. He started threads about jumping in early on Bitcoin when they started it up (2009 IIRC). Had a history of posts about it for four years here with links. I believe it happened. It was a plan. He stuck to it. I'm impressed. |
