Bitcoin has officially reached normies

youtube.com/watch?v=QPu5UD_iahg

WS hedge funds would destroy bitcoin market in few moves if they really jump in
the market is still fragile, with that awkward connection between alts and roots

That chick is fucking hot, she needs to do porn, it's that lip.

It hasn't reached normies till you actually start seeing crypto somewhat relevant in the everyday life of one.

wtf i like this guy, his answers are bretty good...

I work in a software company, my co-workers are devs with IQs way above population average. To my knowledge, out of 50 people there is only guy apart from me who owns bitcoin (fucker mined 30 BTC on a CPU back in the day, forgot about it for years and still holds it).

All other co-workers have heard about bitcoin, because we implemented BTC payments in our product.
So yes, everybody heard about it, but it will take years for normies to understand the concept and why its so important and revolutionary.

My personal example: first heard about BTC in summer 2010 on /g/, took me like 2 years to understand why would anyone pay 'real' money for this, took me another year to even consider it as investment and then another 3 years to finally go through all the verification bullshit and buy in December last year. You might call me a low IQ pleb, but that just proves my point. Normie phase has not even begun.

look at this aids faggot

Muh Normies
Op, my church going uncles were into btc when it was in the cents
Youre the normie here

the fuck is with this niggers posture?

During this bull run, Coinbase said they were adding about 100000 new accounts per day. Think about how small of a number 100000 people is compared to the global population, and think about how hard the price pumped with just a few hundred thousand people coming in. And these few hundred thousand people are not the institutions, just normal plebs probably putting in a few grand each at most.

This.
Everyone talks but no one buys

We still another $100 billion in the total marketcap for crypto to achieve 1% of all liquid money. We still have a long road ahead of us.

is Vitalik gay?

serious question

Do they accept SATS?

yes

Gave everyone in my family 1 bitcoin. They all want to hold it, never sell. It is def. going mainstream, but we havent really seen the old money yet (BTC and ETH need to get listed on a stock exchange). When that happens, we will see 50k BTC. Keep telling friends and family. Lets do this Reddit!

...

normie stories:

>I told my friend about BTC last week.
>He told his 68 yr old mother, after fudding me with the usual normie bullshit and he keeps telling me to 'cash out' (i'm up 1000%). tell him no, explain $1 to $10 rise, then to $100, etc. tell him I will cash some out when I hit a mil - he laughs at me like I'm crazy.
>My mother called me, said his mother wants me to call her and tell her about it.
>a day prior i told my wife I will no longer discuss crypto with people because I'm sick of explaining this shit
>told my mother that my friend's mother can google it

>friend says he wants me to help him buy some shares
>explain some stuff to him, ask about investment time frames, etc
>he hears my friend and I discussing crypto
>a day later a get a message asking if he should buy ripple
>say no, buy btc
>but ripple is only 20 cents lol
>explain market cap, inflation, supply, etc
>friend says he will buy some btc
>doesn't
>btc has mooned without him

>help friend set up mining rig
>he decides to sell all the hardware, all his eth, and buy BTC instead
>I explained the benefits and risks of buying btc/mining at the start
>he's full fomo at the btc ATH

>tell brother in law to buy BTC
>he buys dash, ripple, BCC, ETH and other shitcoins - no BTC
>BTC moons
>his portfolio has gone nowhere in months

>tell friend about the XLM news before the pump
>i'm making sick gains
>he fomo's at 650, panic sells the dips and somehow loses money
>thinks trading is a meme
>meanwhile i made a shitload of money

fuck the normies, they want to get on the gains train? they can DYOR

the good news is, they will make bad decisions. more money for us.

no1 on biz seems to understand that crypto will never be as widespread as normal currencies as u can't tax it

Lets be real here, how many normies do you know invest their money in stocks, futures, commodities? Will they ever? Most likely no.
Now what makes you think that they will invest in internet money?

Fuck babyboomer taxes. I pay for their pensions and healthcare, and when it is my time to benefit, the money ran out.

Fuck no, im building my own pension with blackjack, crypto, and hookers.

Nobody owns stocks under 30, perhaps maybe nvidia and tesla. Everyone I know under 30 has crypto. Its our generation, not theirs.

That's half the point

>wagecuck
>IQs way above population average
Kek'd

ah yes this is the only thing taxes pay for

and you're 3/5th a person.

tons of people own stocks under 30 you stupid nigger

Let's do some math.
There's a maximum supply of 21MM bitcoin. That'll be achieved in 2140, but let's assume that is the current supply. We're also going to ignore the fact that potentially millions of bitcoin is already permanently removed from circulation due to lost wallets.

If bitcoin becomes mass adopted, and half the population (3.5 billion) owns at least some bitcoin. 21 mil / 3.5 bil = 0.006

One person can own at most 0.006 bitcoin if it's spread evenly. Now if you account for whales, lost bitcoin, and growing population... bitcoin has the potential to be absolutely fucking huge.

A waiter saw me trading today and asked my about the fucking fork..a afucking waiter.. he started investing in BTC 1 week ago.. its over guys

These threads are do stupid im conviced this is data mining or something more nefarious.

What happened lately that made the BTC skyrocket like this ?
I haven't kept with the latest news.

This is so true!

This space is mostly cowboys and sideliners.
10x next year.

this is painfully retarded

I work with plenty of normies who have known about bitcoin for about a year and once it hit $3000 they said oh well too late now. Now as the price gets even higher they'll never buy in.

so close to pulling the trigger on btc back in 2010, but wanted to have a rigorous mathematical understanding of its blockchain environment and was mathematically retarded then. Good times.

we havent even begun to reach mass normie
i tell everyone about bitcoin, and the common response is one of two things :
1. what the fuck are you talking about?
2. "yeah dats dat computa money"

they have no idea

Unless all the normies have a btc / altcoin wallet, we're still in the early stages of the crypto revolution. 2018 will be explosive.

>>help friend set up mining rig
>>he decides to sell all the hardware, all his eth, and buy BTC instead
>>I explained the benefits and risks of buying btc/mining at the start
>>he's full fomo at the btc ATH
That's not so bad. Even if it crashes by 40% now, he will have a good + after a few months.

More than half of American adults own stocks. If even 10% of them owned crypto, I would be a multimillionaire.
financialsamurai.com/what-percentage-of-americans-own-stocks-or-real-estate/

Of my ~15 or so IRL friends who own BTC/ETH, most leave it on Coinbase.

Godspeed to him, nobody deserves to work as a waiter.

Maybe 25% have heard of it

and 1% have some investment in it

not even close to achieving a solid market cap

we might actually get rich

are we all actually gonna make it? (except shitcoiners)

Normies are too brainwashed into thinking that FDIC protection will always be there. As long as people have faith in FDIC Bitcoin will never be $1 million each.

>compared to the global population

I'd like it if more people on biz make it than filthy normies.

I hate seeing people get discouraged and leaving because lots of people did that in 2011 or 2013 and regret it so I can only imagine the new wave of people getting burnt out will also have to live with that regret.

dude no joke, a fucking waiter butted in on my conversation yesterday as well. Said he was gonna buy a bunch of eth from his 10 bucks an hour salary, but that he won't touch bitcoin.

fuck, what does this mean for us. I got so scared realising the normies are truly on it

Just got my 70 year old Uncle to sign of for Coinbase and buy 2k worth last week. Now he's asking about ETH and LTC

BULLISH

It doesnt reach normies until you hear niggers rapping about it on the radio

Comment of a day kek

Been goin on for years
youtube.com/watch?v=7ZurL8Ypy1o

Yes.

And an $80 CAD purchase came out to $71 worth of bitcoin

Uh...
youtube.com/watch?v=Fnj0UG9biLc

Normies didn't fomo on gold huge rally in 2008, or facebook stocks, or oil etc, they won't buy bitcoins, they don't invest.

What you want is hedge funds and banks telling their 50yo dad investors to put 5% in btc.

>oh shit
FIRE UP THE MEGA MARKETING, TIME TO MOON 10K AND BLEED THEM DRY

Most people are to scared thinking they missed the boat. A lot of people won't buy into it anyway, only a small group might the rest will just wait untill it gets put into a commodites basket or someshit.

>for years
>2439 view

Year, we are safe.
Even if amazon alows bitcoin payement now in my country

They have missed the boat. The time to profit was when BTC was as risky as alts. Now they are too much of a pussy to buy alts lmao. Literally will never make it.

We need one of the asset bubbles to burst (stocks, VC, PE). The Fed will flood the market with more dollars like they always do. Speculators will jump on the next bubble (crypto) like they always do. We would have 5-10 years of absurd gains as every kike run shop ripped off their clients by telling them crypto in infallible.

The USA as you know it is not surviving another burst on that scale.

some normies have heard of it, but normies do not buy in. Much like android, normies don't realise they are using linux now

no, no they can't wall street, is getting into BTC as its the only way they will survive.

They are looking at thier FIAT value porfits and realizing they are being devalued 10%~100% a month or more.

There only hope is to get into BTC

Normies won't get into Bitcoin until you can buy it easily, say like through PayPal or whatever.

Most normies are fucking stupid. Most aren't going to go through the verification process. Why? Most are skeptical and will think it's a scam to steal their identity, the others are too lazy.

The only way normies will get in is

A) If they can buy it easily. As in go to buybtc.com enter an amount and press "buy"

B) They can phone up an advisor, bank, etc and be like "I want to buy bitcoin"

TL;DR bitcoin is too "confusing" for normies to buy.

Coinbase creates a wallet for every transaction you make. 10 transactions, ten wallets.
And coinbase is the gateway of fiat.
Your normie friends are probably around a hundred of those 18 million wallets.

u have that the wrong way around .... do you even notice all the money in low tax / tax free jurisdictions.

I have to admit its felt daunting, like with a Tastytrades account I literally just connected to it after writing in my data, I tried to get into crypto a couple times and its so difficult, I need a wallet and a brokerage and a exchange I dunno.

You can make fun of me if you want, im doing all right in options.

'Nomies' won't be in crypto until there's easier ways to buy, as well as being able to get 401k's investing in crypto options

You Whities have no taste in women.

Does that guy have aids?

We are not even started m8.

Crypto market cap=~200 billion.
Dot-com bubble in 2017 dollars= $4 trillion
Global GDP during dot-com bubble=$27 trillion
Global GDP in 2017= $144 trillion
All financial assets (diamonds,precious metals etc)= $1096.6 Trillion

How the fuck is just a $200 billion market cap "Reaching normies"

sub-human slav genes

>tell friend to buy ETH when it is at $14. Get a call from him when ETH is about to hit $400 and asks me how to buy. Buys at the ATH. I will be expecting another call from him next ETH run-up

>Another friend buys BTC at $400 and immediately spends it on drugs.

>Give my sister $100 worth of ETH which is 23 at the time. Tell her this could be worth something in the future and to not forget the password to her wallet. She then forgets password.

>Tell co-worker a year ago to sign up to Gemini to buy BTC or ETH. Doesn't do it because they ask for social number.

>Old friends hitting me up on FB asking me about crypto and how to make money off it. I tell them what to do. They respond they don't have any money to invest.

He would be holding a fucking big blue bag lel kek

...

pls post source video of gif thnx

HA! Love me some casual
Thanks for this jam

This is true, my normie friends are still taking forever to actually put money. They just keep talking about investing but this time they were saying how they have to after watching it go to 7k from 5k

Leaf here-
in order to get a LEAF account i would have to
>basic application
>scan my ID
>give my banking # & password
>let them log into my bank to "verifiy" my identity
> "dont worry, you can just change your PW after plus we wont take anything"

Uhh- no thanks. Under terms and conditions if you give anyone this info you aren't protected if you get drained.

Extra difficult for leaf people to catch a ride on the rocket.

The rise from 5000-4000 to 10000 is going to be meteoric.
Just like the collapse from 10000 to 5000-6000.

Up, up, down.
Up, up down.
Up up down, up up down and up up down.
It's the king's dance !

Yeah, Waiting for suh-wet gains.

at least he's actively learning about btc and blockchain tech on his own now. he'll get on board at some point.

quit being a melodramatic retard, you have to do the same as Americans

make an account, complete the KYC info with a scan of ID or passport, proof of address, photograph, then they verify for a few days, once you're approved you're good to go. Then you can either wire transfer your fiat to the exchange, or even use interac online if your bank card supports it.

there's no giving any bank password, no logging into bank account, nothing shady, and if you experienced anything shady, someone was trying to scam you, you probably fell for a phishing scam site or something.

normies wouldnt buy autistic bitcoins because they invest real money in things that have value.

I can imagine one of you autists trying to walk into a store with your fucking neetbux trying to buy something. I would laugh my fucking ass off. your fucking spaghetti spilling everywhere

>asked my about the fucking fork

thought that was a double entendre for a moment

this "normie" phase will never happen the same way 99% of population have no idea how fiat money works. they'll just wake up one day and be told to exchange there dollars in into satoshis at 1:1

Most likely asexual.
