Normie kek Thread

ITT we share our irl normie crypto experiences.

I'll start, at work and co-worker says "hey I hear litecoin is the new hot crypto".

I used to go on facebook to manage some ads/pages, never used it for personal posting but had friends added from a decade ago. Logged on during Nov and they were all celebrating that bitcoin was hacked and worth nothing I think when nicehash got hacked but they thought it meant bitcoin itself was hacked.

I've had a lot worse. My dad is a cop and one of his coworkers called me to chat crypto. He kept trying to shill Tron and Ripple, this was right before the huge crash in January and I kept on telling him it was a terrible idea but I have no idea if he listened

>I think when nicehash got hacked but they thought it meant bitcoin itself was hacked.

bitcoin really is going to be a million bucks a coin. Normies who will FOMO hard don't even know anything about it yet

trons going to be huge i can feel it. kek

thats true though ultimately

people are paying for nothing

but that could work for a decent amount of years in this reality

That's the best part about it. The confusion and panic of normies.

>I heard it's a scam.

>It's a scam.

>By the time you hear about it on the news, it's too late.

Same with our current financial system kek

It's like ssl certs, bear share, and paypal had a baby with an extra chromosome isn't it?

>did you know a bit-coin is worth $4000?
>wow, i'd sure like to find one of those on the ground

>bitcoin is centralized, because the chinese are the only ones mining it and they can destroy it at any time
>if you're gonna buy crypto at all, ripple looks a lot safer

>remembers avg. iq when green dildo
ssl certs: because the signing process
bear share: because shitty fat client that sux bandwidth and CPU
PayPal: because you buy stuff, maybe, and it has a ledger
>Weew color me black wojack

I think the normies who will FOMO in if we get a bull run again are those with kind of neutral reaction to crypto. Some of my friends / relatives were kinda like saying nothing but clearly deeply thinking about it(none of them actually bought lol). It'a in their brain now and I just know they are ready next time there's a bull run. I was neutral too before I actually researched it.

and the extra chromosome because obviously it's retarded

My dad says that already crashed
>stays poor

>Bch really is going to be a million bucks a coin

>backed by nothing

Backed by the military

Backed by nothing.

Gold is actually good for store of value because it's rare and so durable. Gold Roman coins still are intact to this day and so are other gold artifacts. So yeah, it's actually backed by its properties and legacy

Backed by trust.
Who do you trust more? Your government or a decentralized blockchain that can't be hacked.

>can’t be hacked
>but exchanges can be shut down, raided and robbed

The point is it isn't useful for anything besides 'value storage' which is the same for Bitcoin.

How does exchanges being robbed stop you from being in complete control of your coins? No one can tell you whether you can or cannot transfer the coins between wallets. You can access these wallets wherever you go in the entire world instantly. You can't transfer or receive more than 10,000 government fiat without asking permission or explaining how you got it. Less than 10,000 dollars costs an expensive "wire" fee and takes a business day or more for funds to be moved.

lol get out

Normies don't know words like "centralized" or "decentralized".

Gold has industrial uses.

>people are paying for nothing
money is a number in a bank account.
I'd rather have numbers that no on can modify, than numbers that some kike can just change any time.

USD is worth something because you are legally required to use it to pay your taxes. It is also backed by the promise of borrowers to repay their debts.
