I was recently in Spain. Inwas hanging with some local people and one of them saw my btc backround in my phone. Is just laughed and told I had some btc, like everyone >10 yr old in Finland does.
They had never heard of BTC or any crypto before? They were 20-25.
How? Just how?
If you ask any kid in Finland, what he/she is going to do with their summer job money >To buy bitcoin
What do you want for christmas? >Bitcoin
For birthday? >Bitcoin
What are you going to do with your first salary? >Buy bitcoin
They high on life and dont see the dangers coming. In cold shit countries like Finland the weather tells them every day life is cruel.
I almost wish i lived more that the Italians ans Spanish.
Evan Smith
>Is tapas, paella and football enough? apparently!
Levi Parker
Whos that
Hunter Hernandez
Always follow the Finns. They’re fucking smart because they have nothing to do for half a year but sit inside and think.
Liam Flores
Yes. We don't have anything else to do but to play heavy music and spend our time playing online games.
Spanish just want to stay up late, drink wine, have sex, stay beautiful. Also they are poor.
Does rich scandinavian + beautiful spanish chick make match?
Andrew Fisher
Plus they fully sold on the mainstream view. Spanish have a history of accepting fascists. They dont look at global issues either...too much self belief. I went to italy recently. They are in love with themselves and they fucking hate american tourists.
Chase Scott
Yes but finns also hate themselfs and commit suicides and have poor self esteem.
Christopher Hernandez
Spaniards are too dumb to English, they couldn't buy Bitcoin even if they wanted to.
initially i thought it was a colleague of mine from work but just a similar slav face.
Jordan Hughes
Lol. When finnish goes to Italy, its "Heeelllooooo KIMI RAIKKONEN MIKA HAKKINEN VERY GOOD!!"
John Jackson
she has the face of a babushka already
Nicholas Carter
Are you planning to have sex with her when you make it?
Jayden Nelson
>Spanish have a history of accepting fascists And then a modern history of completely repudiating that whole era.
Lucas Anderson
>loola belly
im going to put a loola in her belly if you know what i mean
Austin Butler
>they fucking hate american tourists. We (Europeans) all do, sweetie. Some of us are just too polite to say it.

Justin Wright
nope. got rejected right quick.
but found another slav that i vibe with much better
William Barnes
I worked at a multi-national tech startup in Barcelona.
Spain is mostly technically illiterate. Our company was basically scamming Spanish businesses and so were a ton of foreign tech companies. Add to that imported Indian developers overcharging for simple solutions.
Not to say they aren't great tech people and devs but mostly Spain is really behind in tech.
>In finland everyone owns bitcoin This is the most stupid thing I have ever heard. I know of only 3 people that own any crypto at all
Joshua Powell
Really? In my uni all we talk about is crypto? Also all teenager summerworkers in my workplace were very open about their positions in crypto
Alexander Torres
Spaniards are retarded, what else is new?
Joshua Diaz
fins are the niggers of scandinavia
Kayden Green
Wtf? What uni is that? I never hear anyone talking about it at all. Ofc we have the megawhales like Aarni with his 120MM worth of btc living like an actual king in Thailand and that russian dude who cashed out 25mil and was all over the news. But in general I never hear anything about crypto in uni/work etc
Tyler Hernandez
Americans are hated everywhere in the world user. not just fins.
t. dane
Gabriel Torres
We might, but there are a lot more real niggers in norway and sweden. Literally invaded. Some parts of norway/sweden do look just like baghdad now. Such shit countries now
pretty much everyone i know in denmark owns bitcoin too user. im 24yo btw.
Bentley Davis
How old are you?
Caleb Peterson
Longgirl is long
Carter Martinez
Mid 20s, so maybe it is more common with younger people? I had no idea, how much do most people have if you can estimate some "average"? Are they holding alts or only btc
Grayson Miller
yeah made a typo, meant sit inside and drink
Oliver Davis
Would you ever want to move once you made it? I also come from a cold country and I like the summer very much even tho it isn't that warm but winter man, it is depressing. Wake up it is dark, go to work and sun come up, then after work sun has already set.
Carter Reyes
Spaniard here, this is based in two factors:
1. Spain its a socialism state, spaniards demonice money and people trying to get it, moreover younght people, the left had taken over their brains.
2. Spain and the spanish world use their own internet social networks, as an example, Jow Forums and reddit could be replaced for other sites such as forocoches. This lead to an fairly unknown of the crypto world, despite such sites posting about crypto most just dont have the economic knowlege/balls to really invest, i was during the time (from early 2016 when btc took off) in both spanish/english forums digging info, and only techies know this stuff on spain.
I know where my country its going and i just hope i could make it before we get there, but things are really getting really bad, the whole society its going to shit:
The *far right* its developing and sooner will replace the far left, both are controled by (them) so the result will be the same no matter what, and if italy keeps doing its thing... We will follow aka the euro its doomed. Now go buy btc averaging this levels: 5300-4800-4200-3800 this is a multiyear run, and WE STILL GOING TO MAKE IT.
Gavin Martinez
i would say between $1,000-$20,000 (in US dollars). Most hold around $5-10k worth. financial situation for students here in denmark isnt as tough as in the US since education is free. govt sometimes even pays you to go to college lel
David Flores
Please stop you are embarrasing us.
Jaxson Baker
yes they are literally backwards. I'm British and as a young child it was the only place we ever went. I thought other countries were just full of dumb/backwards people who would never be as cool and 'with it' as the English-speaking world. Visiting some more developed countries now I realise Spain is just backward and doesn't deserve such high recognition of being 'developed'. To be fair they were a gangster organisation no better than Eastern Europe right up until the 70s lol
Austin Ross
Your youth unemployment rate probably has a lot to do with young Spaniards not holding btc. -Oh and checked.
Henry Turner
And this is why I don't like international travel and think it's a meme. Why pay so much money to go somewhere with a different culture and people who don't like you? Western Europe has some of our closest allies and even they don't want us visiting.
Brody Bennett
It's because Finland is unironically the smartest-on-average land in Europe Look up the average IQ stats and you will see
Kayden Green
Spain is a bank-loving socialist shithole. A has-been like all Europe.
William Evans
Metal is the music for smart people confirmed
Colton Campbell
Burger here. Went to Iceland and Ireland earlier this year and everyone was friendly to me. Then again, I don't drink, I'm not obnoxious, and I try to be respectful of other peoples' cultures when visiting their countries.
Why do you hate us?
Kayden Diaz
Only jealous/poor people hate americans
Brandon Ortiz
Actually it's only the jealous. Poorer countries like American tourists because we tip. In fact, the Chinese and British are universally considered the worst tourists. That said, I'm aware Americans do have a reputation for being loud, which makes me self conscious. Due to an accident as a child, I'm partially deaf, so sometimes I'm louder than I mean to be. I supplement it with sign and writing and most people have been very friendly.
Nicholas Morris
Americans are generally disliked for their complete lack of awareness and perspective, and it's funny that comments like "Only jealous/poor people hate americans" are exactly indicative of the sort of stupid nonsense that makes (some of) them disliked.
Christopher James
Spaniard here. Met a lot of finns in my previous company. Most of them hate us or feel threatened because we have sun and finnish girl prefer us. But finns are cool and they are the best metal heads. Your food sucks tho, worst I have eaten after Indonesian.
Now to the topic: Spain is exactly as any other Mediterranean country, for the good and the bad, and that includes enjoying life being a higher priority than becoming financially independent or following tech news.
Kevin Ross
>In finland everyone owns bitcoin >In spain no-one has never heard of bitcoin So in conclusion, the finnish are fucking retarded.
Spaniard here. Bitcoin is quite popular between young people.
Ayden Ward
Maybe, but young people are out of money so they don't have the opportunity to buy it. One I talked to, made 600€/month as a waitress. Not much to put in cryptos..
Dylan Wilson
>talks to a waitress >roastie working minimum wage doesn't know anything about crypto >"why do spaniards not know about crypto and are poor xd" Kys mongol subhuman
Landon Allen
Spanish user here is right
Also, the only popular speculation is Spain is and has always been real estate. Fags will get into an absurd mortgage as soon as they can.
Brayden Price
sauce needed
Logan Jackson
>Why pay so much money to go somewhere with a different culture and people who don't like you?
ironically, to get away from the people with a different culture that don't like you back at home.
Christopher Turner
> They are in love with themselves and they fucking hate american tourists. Rightfully so, 90% of American tourists are fucking scum. Australians too
Josiah Sanchez
> enjoying life being a higher priority than becoming financially independent or following tech news.
Based. I wonder how many retards here held 1M+ crypto portfolios down to nothing because "it's not enough"
Jordan Gray
>If you ask any kid in Finland, what he/she is going to do with their summer job money >>To buy bitcoin
Are Fins legitimately this fucking stupid?
Andrew Phillips
Tell me how much BTC for that one and then I will answer your question.
Camden Foster
he is just making things up. I have been telling everyone about crypto and blockchain since early 2017 and no one is interested even a tiny bit. and all my friends are from very academic and wealthy families.
OP, a lot of spanish people are lazy fuck with their siestas. No wonder many haven't heard of bitcoin. Spain is a great country to go during holidays though; it has everything to enjoy life
John Hill
>They high on life and dont see the dangers coming. In cold shit countries like Finland the weather tells them every day life is cruel.
Perhaps in Spain, Italy or Greece.
But I assure you it's not like that Portugal.
Ayden Butler
I have to agree.
And also, Spanish are irrational as fuck. Really. They allways fix things that are not broken. I mean they think that their solution to some non-existent problem is clever but literally every tourist thinks that "wtf really how to fuck one can be so stupid"
But nonetheless, great and _extremely_ cheap country to spend holidays.
Hunter Foster
Does Portuguese women like foreign men?
Nathaniel Rodriguez
I live in cadiz, south of spain, is true that the people dont invest in bitcoin, but a lot of people knows about it.
I bought holochain ico ;)
David Myers
lmao
Isaac Morgan
Welcome to my life, an average Spaniard that literally outsmart everyone else just by browsing Jow Forums. Furthermore, the bragging culture is more an anglo thing, if you brag too much you will be seen as femenine
Mason Flores
Cause Spain's been in decline since the War of Spanish Succession lmao
Christopher Walker
Yes, too bad they all moustaches though.
Jaxon Nguyen
they were doing well with franco, as soon as he died the country started going backwards.
I personally know one person who owns bitcoin. I don't hang around with kids though so hard to say what they think about it. Most of my friends are studying/have studied computer science/software engineering, one has a master's in economics, one a PhD in electrical engineering. Only one of them owns BTC(CS student atm like me).
t. finn
Andrew Foster
>In fact, the Chinese and British are universally considered the worst tourists. Kek, I have some bad news for you...
Carson Diaz
British and russian.
British are loud and cant eat anything without fries.
We saw british esting lasagne with fries, sushi with fries, paella with fries, ICECREAM with fries in the other hand.
British girls tend to have incontinece and they pee theirselfs all the time when drunk. Thats gross. Everywhere you go, there is british teen peeing her pants.
Dylan Mitchell
Based Holo-Spaniard.
Michael Myers
Am Spanish, can confirm. The left ruined everything in this country
Lucas Powell
>Spanish have a history of accepting fascists
Just cause they were the only ones giving Commies what they deserved
