Appears to me that those who care the most are those who wouldn't dream of buying them.

I don't care if someone buys bitcoins or not. Personally, I wouldn't touch them with a bargepole.
But if certain posters with limited knowledge on the bitcoin protocol spam the forum with incorrect information regarding bitcoin security and anonymity, I shall comment

tbh, I agree with what you say. but at the same time I think if someone is stupid enough to buy bitcoins they deserve to get fleeced......

a fool and his money and all that

Bitcoin or some similar cryptocurrency is the future of money.

the thing is two years ago people were saying the same about gold and silver. then when the gold/ silver price went down they all kept quiet and found the next bandwagon to jump on.

Not really.

Although I did buy 10 sovereigns back in 2008 when there was talk of financial armageddon and whatnot.

I'd sort of forgotten about them but now you mention it, I might sell some of them now and buy some more bitcoins.

Reading that paragraph I now know you are full of s**t, you're just a dreamer.

It's all made up nonsense.

Firstly, have a house, secondly, don't post on HPC, thirdly, there is no "gang".

Though the poster apears to believe it gives him some kind of authority to make out otherwise.

This whole bitcoin thing is fascinating. It appears those who care the most about bitcoins, have the least interest in owning them.

Ok, we now know you hold a grudge against MFW_ASAP for some reason, but any thoughts on the subject of the thread? (bitcoin)
