A Computer Glitch Let a Trader Claim $20 Trillion in Free Bitcoin
http://fortune.com/2018/02/21/20…
An error in the price calculation system at Japanese cryptocurrency exchange Zaif has allowed some customers to claim digital tokens for free—including one who “purchased” $20 trillion worth of Bitcoin.
That’s problematic on a number of levels, but among those is the fact that the total Bitcoin market capitalization is around $183 billion, according to CoinMarketcap.

why's Bitcoin down 10%? what's happening?
- markets are down because of Evergrande worries. bitcoin follows.uan
- Bitcoin is supposed to NOT follow anything and be this amazing independent decentralized thingy. No? no HODL?Krassy
- HODL! Don't sell a stock two seconds after it drops 10%... especially not BTCnb
- ^ but that's NOT what people are doing. That's my point. Why are people selling off??Krassy

I still think we will revisit 45k and maybe even 50k. This rally has been extreme in many ways. I think I was lucky to guess the direction a couple of times, but every time the magnitude of the moves has been x2-x3 of what I was expecting. So fuck it, to 50k!

Holly! 45% return right now! Its getting up again!
I invested 390$... Now worth 570$- 46%Bennn

- damn Bennn you paid 400 bucks on air?! amazinggrafician
- That air give me 185$ of more airBennn
- interesting to see what happens once it tests 34k. probably crash and rek everyone as usual.inteliboy
- im up 355% this yearpockets
- Oh it will crash for sure sooner or later. But it will get back up again.Bennn
- If it does it’ll trigger global hyperinflation. Lates will cost $100,000 as someone said earlier._niko
- I invested $1000 in Bitcoin years ago when it was a buck now from no effort or work by me or anyone it’s worth $25 million. I can now cash out and buy_niko
- A bunch of real estate and invest in other traditional stocks. I can even re-invest in other crypto currencies or even Bitcoin again and making more and more_niko
- Since there is no limit. There are people out there with hundreds of thousands if not millions of bitcoins. What can they do if they all cash out?_niko
- Sorry this is just hypothetical I don’t actually have 1000 Bitcoin lol_niko

- Bennn, don’t get too greedy bro. $190 profit is enough for you.NBQ00
- I’m up 2189% on Apple. Just sayin.monospaced
- I’m up 167% on palantir.monospaced
- 4,366% on Tesla. But enjoy your pathetic gains on Monopoly money. Cash out before it’s gone. They don’t have a business prospectus. Never will.monospaced
- And 45% is about the same as any market but just a little worse. It’s not actually very good dude.monospaced
- From what I've read you can expect around 9-10% return rate on standard stock investment on the long run on averageBennn
- Mono, are you millionaire? Obviously Bennn got in late. But he’s just playing a bit with beer money.NBQ00
- Lol why does it matter? :D
NBQ00 there are people who are investing thats like Mono. What needs patience and know where to put your money in the long run.sted - And there are the ones who are trading.sted
- These traders are separated to 3 groups: hedgies, daytraders, and the iditos on robinhood.sted
- Bitcoin buyers are just believe they are investors.sted
- I’m not a millionaire no. I put a few grand here and there when I see a good investment. I’ve made money but not rich.monospaced
- Bennnn, you read about the average stock investment. But you’re speaking about a specific currency here, one without governance or a business.monospaced
- Point is, if you invest in something that makes sense, you can make damn good money. And a lot more than 45% and for good reason beyond “other people buy it”monospaced
- And yes. My $2k on apple became enough for a down payment on a million dollar home 6 months ago with a lot leftover. Tesla paid for my car. Etc.monospaced
- lolGuyFawkes
- "dont invest, oh btw i bought a house with my investment!" dont listen to anyone here when it comes to this shit, most of us talk out of our asses here.GuyFawkes
- I didn't say "don't invest." Did I say something you don't believe?monospaced
- I bought AAPL when it was the equivalent of $0.80 (several splits later). $2k turned into $200k. Enough for a down payment on a house and car.monospaced
- I bought Tesla 5 years ago when they revealed the powerpack. It was like $40. Each share is now way over $300. So fuck you for laughing.monospaced
- If you invested this year and DIDN'T make at least 45% the last 8 months, you were an idiot.monospaced

Just got access to some Bitcoin from an old account. Is this a good time to sell? It's on a surge at the moment but all the recent rallies have collapsed so I'm wondering if this one will too.
- hmm, Might as well hold onto it. It's peaked at what, 20k last December. It will probably get close to that this year.dorkKn1ght
- why would it go to $20K again?monospaced
- I think the trend will continue upwards (zoom out on the charts)Calderone2000
- just because?monospaced
- Wait for the big SEC announcement? Could crash again after of course but who knows...fadein11
- in the middle term, this is a pretty good time to sell. I think it will dip in a big way one more time before we see the bull rally for this year.sarahfailin
- if you can stand to hold on til late this year, you might be glad you did. the price has grown and moved logarithmically. that's why 25k is possible.sarahfailin
- I sold for now. Chances are it will be rejected a 3rd time https://i.imgur.com/…

Bit of a clickbait headline but he speaks some sense in the article.
The 19-year-old who made his fortune in bitcoin says if you don't become a millionaire in the next 10 years, it's your own fault
- isn't your main interest as someone with a lot of btc convincing others to buy so your value goes up?scarabin
- Dnt focus on the headline scar, other interesting stuff in there, like dntbpanic sell etcfadein11
- what scarabin saidmonospaced
- the moment you buy this non-currency you're basically obligated to become a cheerleader for it just to keep up the illusion of valuescarabin
- Teen-flavoured survivorship bias is the most blinkered type of bias. Good luck to him, but this ain't gospel.detritus
- Its like religion. The only way for it to work is to have massive people believing it will work.pango
- Do they? I certainly keep my mouth shut about it.inteliboy
- Same could have been said about the dot com boom and more recently Apple, google, amazon, Netflix...weed stocks etc_niko
- There’s always something new. Also, The pump and dump schemes never end_niko
- interesting points but I'm same as inteliboy, since investing in ether I haven't cheerleaded/spoke about it to anyone really apart from a close friend.fadein11
- Scarabin, does your very vocal anti-bitcoin stance come from the jealousy of not making a fortune with it, like so many have?set
- I'm having difficulty understanding.set
- That was probably the least sophisticated analysis of crypto I've ever read. "It was up, but then it went down, so buy now, before it goes up again"monNom
- He's only young but okay I shouldn't have bothered sharing it lol. I guess it was more about the young lad getting rich than anything else.fadein11
- although that point does pretty much sum it up. i.e. Bitcoin and crypto has been written off many times beforefadein11
- I'd suggest that if you're not a millionaire in the next 10 years, it's on your own fault, regardless of bitcoin or this little cunt, no?set
- The wonder of the internet and social media is that literally anyone can make a lot of money doing what they're good at, if they figure out the right approachset
- set, making more USD with it wouldn't change the fact that bitcoin failed at what it set out to doscarabin
- i'm pro-crypto, believe me. nothing i'd love more than the cyberpunk fantasy of de-seating major financial institutionsscarabin
- but even you saw that bitcoin failed, or you'd still have yoursscarabin
- It hasn't failed yet, it's only just beginning. I just withdrew a vast amount of money that I basically forgot about. It has nothing to do with it failing....set
- riiiight.
anyway, the fact that you have "difficulty understanding" the situation beyond the concept of making money with it just illustrates my stancescarabin - I don't have difficulty understanding the situation further than making money in any way at all.set
- I only even commenting on taking money from it because you said "even you saw that bitcoin failed, or you'd still have yours"set
- Which is completely untrue. I just decided I could use that money. I'm sorry you misunderstood..set
- Bitcoin is paving the way (IS being the operative word) for a decentralised cryptocurrency to overtake fiat currency.set
- That is still happening and is in early stages, still. Again, I'm sorry you misunderstood.set
- bitcoin started something important it unfortunately will never finish. that is my stance. not sure how i can make that any clearer.scarabin
