exactly
It's the same with poker
All the "coaches" and "influencers" are clearly scammers
Everyone knows that any given hand of poker you either win or lose
The people seeing more behind that are clearly brainwashing shilling for their self interest

That is MKULTRA argument to force confusion, in poker you do need skill, some biological abilities (like good working memory, some math skills etc). Cryptocurrency is something like faith.

I thought poker was a magnet for people with superiority complexes, but oh boy, crypto is just on another level. Everyone fancies themself an expert and their pet coins are like their favorite sports team.

The comment thread on Doug's holdings tweet is just full of lol.

"OMG ur such a fish Dug cuz u dnt HODL $OMG u obv dunno wat ur talkin aboot"

Does anyone else think crypto is boring as ****?

People who don't got none.

But I have real money.

I get poker is pretty niche now but just annoying that all poker players are just crypto crypto crypto now

Crypto taking massive hits today. RIP video?

What's funny is the 25-50% drop in value corresponds to basically nothing that happened in the real world. It's just blowing in the wind.

It may very well regain those losses over the coming weeks, but can you imagine what the impact of a bill being drafted for ANY kind of regulation in the US would look like? Not even that it would pass. Hell, they wouldn't even have to be at a point where the bill is actually being drafted. Just having an influential politician taking a position on it, saying what every sane person watching this **** show already knows to be true... depending on the tone and tenor of their commentary it could be lights out within a couple of hours.

Doug, where's that Monday poker video?

was fun while it lasted. ponzi scheme after all!

RIP Bitconnect.

Can't wait for the roasting on YouTube

All you have to do is to kick in the door and the whole crypto house will come crashing down

Gotta just be honest Doug that vid was insanely difficult to get threw, to hear that POS Tai talk it's like everything he says just go and do the opposite and You will be better off . . .

I was somewhat surprised to see Dan Fleyshman hanging out with him I know he has been in the space for a long time, also the fact that he kinda knows that bitconnect was a scam but didn't really warn people adequately rather just focused on his own profits he was making "daily" was a bit disheartening to hear from him. . .

Doug what are your thoughts on cloud mining sites like below, As always keep up the good work Doug see You next time Peace . . .

What makes you think that Doug is alluding to poker when he makes reference to Black Friday in his crypto videos? The term Black Friday has its origins in the investment/speculation area and goes back to the September 1869 gold panic, although most people are more familiar with its use for the stock market crash of October 1929.

Doug's use of a possible Black Friday scenario when it comes to investing/speculating in the cryptocurrency market is a direct reference to these previous Black Fridays in the investment markets.

lol @ me if that's the case.

+1

Again, I am new to all of this but Doug ( and the rest of the sane world as far as I know ;P ) said that they were going to go down....and down they went!

LOL at Tai....guy is such a mark for himself. Just watching his filming style tilts me :P

What was with that clip Doug played where Tai was with all of those women and he says something like "....and we have the ping pong balls....." It is like a scene out of Emanuelle in Bangkok or something :P

Pretty much as it's backed by nothing. Even the US currency is at least backed by Nuclear bombs as a way of not paying debt.

can't wait for the day we can use nuclear bombs as a store of value

If Bitcoin falls under $5 I can buy few this time!

recorded a couple vids yest! should be up in the next day or two.

Doug can you please roast that little punk ***** cryptonick?

HE did already

waiting for the itys bitconnect vid and the current correction yeahhh

"The Value Of Bitcoin Is Volatile In Part Because Just A Few People Own A Vast Majority Of It

Although the recent fall in bitcoin value has been particularly dramatic, the price of the cryptocurrency has been known to vary widely from day to day, and even hour to hour. This volatility is a result of a consolidated market, where just a few people own a huge chunk of all Bitcoin.

Approximately 40 percent of bitcoin is held by about 1,000 users, and the top 100 bitcoin addresses — some of which may belong to the same person — control about one-sixth of all the issued currency, according to Bloomberg. One reason why bitcoin can fall by 20 percent in a day — which is practically unheard of for most equities, and certainly of most currencies — is that if any one of these huge investors sells, it can move the market. Bitcoin's extraordinary price fluctuation is possible because ownership of nominally decentralized technology is, in fact, quite concentrated." -https://digg.com/2018/bitcoin-slump-explanations
