Its possible with crypto, when I started out I had a dream for crypto to make me mortgage free, and a few years later it has happened. I lost my house in the bear market and now I have no mortgage ! Anything is possible !


Tuzo_Galactico

Perspective, amirite!


Surfsd20

All of your crypto will be worthless in 4 years. Please do yourself a favor and sell it all now before this giant Ponzi collapses.


Tuzo_Galactico

I hope not.. šŸ˜”


Surfsd20

What makes you think crypto will be worth more in 4 years? Itā€™s a non-productive asset that most normal people have had bad experiences with.


Funnellboi

found a r/buttcoin user


dj_destroyer

It's because normal people weren't ready for Bitcoin, yet. The people it has been good to are those that are open-minded, forward thinking, pioneer-esque, etc.


Surfsd20

No, the people Bitcoin was good to were the only who were early, just like in any pyramid or Ponzi scheme. We arenā€™t early any more. Matt Damon told the entire world to buy crypto. Now heā€™s a laughing stock.

The difference is I can make money buying Microsoft stock 10, 20, 30 years after it started, because Microsoft generates profits. Bitcoin doesnā€™t generate anything, no money flows into the system except from new investors, so if youā€™re a late investor you will lose money. As an example, if people just permanently stopped buying Microsoft stock and I held it I would still make money through dividends or stock buybacks. If people permanently stopped buying Bitcoin you would never be able to make any money.


Funnellboi

Just because it was on ads doesn't mean you are not early still.. Would it have been ideal to get in a few years ago for people ? Yes.. Is it still extremely early compared to the rest of the world. 10000% yes and you are a moron if you think otherwise.


Surfsd20

It was just on ads. It was ads on the super bowl. Everyone has heard of Bitcoin now. Most of the people who bought it lost money. Everyone who is dumb to be scammed into Bitcoin has bought it. Thereā€™s not enough suckers left for another bull run.


Strict_Ad_2416

Most of the world couldn't give two shits about the superbowl... found another american that doesn't understand there are other countries and even whole continents that would love to get rid of the corrupt US's dollar as global currency.


Funnellboi

You know there is more people who watches a "soccer" game in the UK than the superbowl... Superbowl is massive...... In America, no where else. ​ Also just because people heard of BTC doesn't mean they bought it. The whole market cap of crypto is no where near mainstream size yet. No where near. !RemindMe 2 Years.


yevrah4937

Just take 30 minutes to research blockchain technology. You might not agree with crypto, fair enough, it's a new thing that hasn't been 100% trustworthy (terraLUNA, celsius, voyager, etc etc) but you can't deny the possible use cases for blockchain technology. Crypto is just the financial side of blockchain, but it can be used for any type of information really


Surfsd20

Iā€™m a software developer. Iā€™m quite familiar with blockchain, which is really just Merkle Trees and has been around for decades. Itā€™s not going to replace SQL databases for storing information. It has its niche use cases, like GIT, but those have largely been fleshed out. Itā€™s not going to suddenly explode in use cases. We arenā€™t early in crypto, and weā€™re even later in blockchain.


Tuzo_Galactico

Hopium. I'm a recovering addict.


prkr88

Why are you in a crypto sub? Lol


Surfsd20

Itā€™s like going to the zoo. I donā€™t understand how anyone is dumb enough to invest in crypto at this point in time.


prkr88

Weird.


Surfsd20

Do you just wake up and youā€™re like ā€œoooh, internet tokens!! I want to waste all my money on these!!ā€


prkr88

Well 100s of years ago, sombody in a market some where tried to pay for a goat, but not with chickens ... but with a copper coin. If they broke the mould then, this can break the mould now.


Surfsd20

Metal is useful. That's why it was the original medium of exchange. Bitcoin is not useful.


prkr88

Well circa 20,000 dollars a coin says your currently wrong.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Surfsd20

While I wouldnā€™t invest in gold, it has value because itā€™s pretty and my girlfriend likes it in jewelry. My gf canā€™t wear BTC. Bitcoin and ETH have no value whatsoever, and any increase in price comes from an increasing amount of people being willing to invest it, as opposed to stocks, businesses, real estate, etc.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Surfsd20

And Iā€™m taking the position that EVERY crypto from Bitcoin to CumCoin is a Ponzi scheme because they produce nothing and suckers like OP think they will make money buying them, but you can only make money if youā€™re early, and we stopped being early when Matt Damon told the whole world to buy crypto.


NotFunnyhah

I trusted Matt Damon šŸ˜’


EyepatchMorty_01

Lol look at you! The buttcoiner giving investment advices. We don't even take advice from the veterans of crypto what makes you think we'll listen to a noob like you?


Surfsd20

Most people these days spend their lives in echo chambers, especially on social media. That's how you've been brainwashed into thinking bitcoin has any value. It might be helpful to hear from people who aren't in the echo chamber.


EyepatchMorty_01

Bitcoin don't have value? A simple Google search says otherwise. Regardless of your opinion, the market valued it over 23k at the moment. I appreciate your worthless input but I also recognise it's worthlessness. Have a great day


Surfsd20

Just because a bunch of idiots have been conned into losing money ā€œinvestingā€ in Bitcoin doesnā€™t mean it has actual value. And Iā€™d be fine with dumb people being scammed if it werenā€™t using an obscene amount of energy to do so.


EyepatchMorty_01

The only idiot here is you bro, look at you! You're so miserable you had to join a group that has everything opposite of your beliefs and had to make arguments to make your life a tad more entertaining. It's time to question your life choices instead of calling everyone else dumb.


Surfsd20

My life choices donā€™t involve losing money and destroying the environment. Iā€™m fine.


EyepatchMorty_01

Yeah say that a couple of times more maybe it'll help you sleep better


JunkBondJunkie

I just mined btc in the early days just because I thought the concept was cool.


Funnellboi

I also had BTC back in 2012, lovely stuff :)


wattumofficial

Freedom!


Funnellboi

I have a 6 man tent now, who is the real winner !


IndividualPlane9210

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ I hope ur kidding this one actually made me laugh lmao


Funnellboi

Yeah mate haha, been in crypto since 2012, used to get paid in BTC from someone I used to supply stock to in China, spent a lot of it back then ! wish I did not but still hold a good few !


IndividualPlane9210

Damn bro Iā€™m really sorry about that Iā€™m 22 and I also lost a ton of money crypto stocks you name it good lesson I had to learn I got humbled. But I found something even better and I know it sounds cheesy but I found god and Jesus Iā€™m repairing my relationship and it feels awesome seek Jesus with true and honest heart and trust him he will make everything better you will feel joy in even the small things god bless.

This past two weeks eth run saw me take out 500$ for a vacation to a really nice hotel on a beach with my girl next week. Canā€™t complain


Titan_501

Put some savings away each paycheck for 4yrs and that could pay for the tickets/accommodation. Which has a 100% guarantee unlike crypto.


Tuzo_Galactico

Probably the safest bet I guess.


Kingjingling

risk it for the biscuit


cryotosensei

Maybe streamline your goal to shitposting and gaining Moons to pay for your World Cup ticket!


OkGo2633

You confirmed we are at the bottom. ā€œCash is goldā€ Most bearish statement Iā€™ve ever heard.


bigglesmac

This ^ People taking ā€œcash is kingā€ as a long-term statement. I give it 4-10 months. Inflation is here to stay. Btc. Minorly inflationary. ETH tbd - practically deflationary - if not more. The others - well. Risk/reward goes way much higher, but still better then trying to pay for the WC with Euros in 4 years. Euro is looking in pooor shape


bigglesmac

No sir, terrible advice. Crypto in 4 years is a way better idea then fiat - even likely USD. With these holdings? Blue chips are going to fly at some point and OP be able to buy the tickets with crypto by then. Call me an optimist - but definitely go long on crypto for 4 years. The World Cup will be that much sweeter then showing up with ~30-50% inflated $ā‚¬Ā£Ā„ by then.


Titan_501

Depends on which blue chips he holds even then no guarantees. The blue chip crypto's 5yrs ago where supposed to make people rich by hodl. But majority of those revolutionary projects with strong dev teams are dead. The ones that have survived never reached their ATH again within that period of time and never will because the next new revolutionary buttcoin eth killer has taken all the hype.


bigglesmac

Bitcoin is a king - and going to handle this recession very well. Watch it. If ETH merge goes smoothly - itā€™s flying by 2024 when itā€™s tokenomics essentially make it neutral if not deflationary in nature. Those the blue chips. Everything else is either a moonshot or itā€™s a prayer.


Shadoww2020

Good luck buddy. See you on the other side.


Funnellboi

We should all set a goal here and come back in 4 years... Price of Alt coins I own on this day [https://gyazo.com/21874ac4e882d5ce3eaab5a6b976c7b3](https://gyazo.com/21874ac4e882d5ce3eaab5a6b976c7b3) !RemindMe 4 Years.


Tuzo_Galactico

Love it! See where crypto has taken us in 4 years time.


TheMadViking99

Now that's a noble goal if I have ever heard of one, I'll see you in the stands


Tuzo_Galactico

tromix1

On the real though, be glad you're missing this years world cup. I did some work around the middle east, and stopped by doha for a few weeks. They literally pulled an egypt-pharaoh routine to get the stadium built. They brought in SEA workers, and then held their passports/visas in custody while they worked like indentured slaves in the desert.


Linux_goblin

Sorry to say that but it's pretty standard way of building in there. And no workplace safety at all.


[deleted]

Thought of this too. That FIFA partnership could bring great things.


plomerosKTBFFH

I'm pretty confident it's a marketing opportunity for Algo while FIFA pockets some easy money. FIFA is horribly corrupt.


JooseBeatz

Wait, whats mobile format?? Does it look diff if u post from pc or phone?? Lol i never noticed a diff..

# "I still dream of waking up and dedicating my time to my family and things I love to do." A lot of people think we're lazy but we're actually just tired of a broken system.

Sorry, I meant broken from the perspective of over 90% of the world -- not from the top 10%.

Crypto will pay my future house and my future gaming PC.

Crypto will be capable of paying for everything in the future hopefully. (I mean there should be enough adoption that you can buy anything while using crypto)


Tuzo_Galactico

Wishing you a nice house and a beautiful PC


marsangelo

Forza Italia!! (Next next world cup)


Tuzo_Galactico

I was shocked to see Italy not qualify coming from the Euro win.


partymsl

Was kind of obvious somehow world cup winners or Euro cup winners always fuck up. I as a German fan can very well relate...


marsangelo

I agree, but the cycle of dominance in footy is crazy. Look at england, spain and france. I actually have been making a few bucks betting on Hungary which have been consistently good lol. Italy has been disappointing for sure, doesnt help that Europe qualifiers have a thinner margin of error than any other region in the world


Tuzo_Galactico

Definitely the competition is utterly brutal in the European qualifiers. Every game is do or die.


Cactuszach

I hope crypto does that for you. Best of luck!


Tuzo_Galactico

Much appreciated!! I hope crypto does many things for all of us.


partymsl

It's not much but honest work. Woukd be happy if crypto can buy you something that makes you happy.


Tuzo_Galactico

That's the way I see it as well. Everybody in this sub has a different goal. Happiness is what unites all our goals.

gigabyteIO

Algorand is technical sponsor of FIFA. FIFA meta verse and NFT's will be on Algorand. Super bullish.


notyourbroguy

Technical *partner* of FIFA not sponsor. Also, really cool context is FIFA wanted to find the right blockchain to work with, hired a consultant, and that company determined Algorand was best suited for its level of scale and performance requirements.


gigabyteIO

![gif](giphy|26ufdipQqU2lhNA4g)


cerebralsexer

How do u know?


EngineerSexy

It was all over the news. Just Google fifa algorand. It's even on the official fifa site. They're looking at everything including player transfers with Algorand. Ticket NFTs, etc.


gigabyteIO

This is the biggest partnership in crypto and people have no idea. Algorand is so technically superior to any other block chain and it's partnerships speak to this.


EngineerSexy

I think the technology is at the forefront yeah but I think the team and the reputation of MIT is the reason for it too. The team is just stacked and just like the chain itself everything is super professional. Kind of have to be to talk to nations and mega organizations. I think this year will be huge for brand recognition and for TVL/transactions.


TalesofUs07

Love me some Algorand. It's ETH 5.0


gigabyteIO

Exactly. Algorand right now is far superior to what ETH hopes it will one day be in its finished form.


P1-B0

Yeah dude. Players are gonna become NFTs, sold to the highest bidding team. Thank God crypto is bringing back slavery.


I-LUV-CUPCAKES-AND-U

Cool bro, it's a real good experience watching the game from the stadium


Tuzo_Galactico

Hoping to be there in 4 years!


ChemicalGreek

Maybe you can buy the tickets with crypto then via NFT tickets :)


Tuzo_Galactico

Let's hope adoption takes us there.

Mundane-Farm-4117

I have as much chance of getting rich as England winning the world Cup again


Tuzo_Galactico

Again! You guys have at least won it. Mexico hasn't been in a semifinal game...Yet.


Mundane-Farm-4117

We have a terrible coach. Should have won the euros at home and last World Cup we had a really easy draw to the final.


Tuzo_Galactico

Better luck to England this coming December. The group doesn't look to bad.

shakennotstirr

hopefully Algorand can make use of this massive spending spree on FIFA sponsorship. god knows what they have done with Envision, SailGP, Women Soccer, Times Square and a bunch of other useless sponsorships. I suppose with only 30k active users and Governors you can't really get much worse than now.

Definitely international football is more exciting I like the way it's broken down it's more decisive I love it bro I'm already for the rounds at well won't promote it I'm ready to place some bets..


Scipio_Americana

Get out of my head. I hold a similarly diversified bag and also will be hoping to go to the World Cup in North America. The stadium in Monterrey looks insane. But more likely to try to hit ATL as it's closer to me.


Tuzo_Galactico

Are you me?lol I want to go to the final but if crypto can take me to a game in each of the 3 hosting countries even better!


AdeptnessWarm3141

Why would you give money to qatar? Normal people that love football will boycott this bought world cup... Literally this world cup shows everything wrong with the corrupt fiat system.... Drinking outside of bars/,hotels can result in up to 6 months of prison, country nothing to do with football,


legionnaire23

4 years is a pretty long time in the world of crypto so I am sure you will be able to do that. I think by that time, there might be multiple partners of the FIFA that would enable people to buy tickets in exchange of crypto. Huge possibility.


Tuzo_Galactico

Possibilities are endless, let's hope it turns out that way!


Immigrant974

Theyā€™ll have to break FIFAā€™s relationship with Visa.


ChandroTomar

Crypto market is as regulated and manipulated as everything else. No way the elites let a bunch of fat virgin dweebs sit around on their computer making money. They will put you back to work and bankrupt your "DCA" strategy.

I will. Iā€™m not trying to be mean. Soccer takes much skill. But when they fall down on the ground and roll around like little bitches in the grass like they were hurt to get a foul. It kind of makes the players look like pussies.

Can't deny some players do over exaggerate, you have a point there.
