He's more of a commentator comedian who interviews the good knowledgeable people

fat chance
it's still early
It's virtually guaranteed there will be another hype cycle even if crypto does wind down to not actually be widely adapted in the long run

Stuff like this has been and will keep happening, all you can do is hold pray for the long run. Or you know... Day trade.

Dougs gonna lose the 6k btc bet BTW unless a miracle happens in retrospect the 10k is a much smaller loss that having to state he was wrong and technical analysis is legit on Tone's channel

Doug, of course, will hold himself to the same level of accountability for promoting this fraud as he held other Youtubers promoting similar frauds.

I think that is a bit unfair.

He said he believed in Crypto and its long term value and gave plenty of disclaimers and risk warnings about its risks on his YouTube videos.

He has also regularly warned against investing in many of the coins and in certain ICOs, so for people who were already in Crypto or new to it he actually gave some great advice and insights, including how to store and transact your coins safely etc.

The only thing I would take issue with him about is that he has often said that a big attraction of Bitcoin is that it is not inflationary.

Well it is a bit inflationary as there are still more coins to be mined, albeit up to a finite amount, however, in my opinion because it is easy to copy/in effect copy and with the proliferation of new and competing Crypto currencies (plus many competing coins that already exist and have yet to flood more of their coins into the market), this makes Bitcoin and Crypto currencies in general potentially very inflationary, with no government(s) or regulatory bodies currently in place to regulate the increase in the Crypto money supply.

I realise that Bitcoin was early to market, has a stronger "brand" name with the public and some stronger existing and planned features than many of its competitors, but this does not fully mitigate all of the above.

I believe he merely knocked him out of the 300k SHRB.

And that the previous poster is just trolling, of course.

Doug will succeed in whatever he decides to focus upon. He can afford to take as long as he wants to decide whatever that is.

There is a lot of crypto butthurt itt.

I don’t recall Doug ever making any market calls on any particular coin. He is an entertainer, that is all he claims to be in crypto.

Didn’t he make a bet saying it would go over 10k by a certain time?

That is basically saying he personally thinks it will go up....maybe didnt directly say one should buy it though

Doug's crypto channel is great, not another one like it in the space and I wish he would keep up with it.
If anything he should be keeping up during this downtrend because if/when the market does start to make another run and then he starts producing again that will be pretty lame.

These "crypto traders" make me laugh. Pretending to know stuff about investing And now, all of a sudden, everyone is so quiet...

Poker players, please leave the trading to the experts. Do what you know best - play poker.

Doug's interest in Bitcoin shows he has temporarily lost his sharp judgment in this particular area.

Let's see, we have no real idea of how many Bitcoins are in existence, so we can't put a true valuation on each one. We don't know who is behind them. We don't know if the inventor is quietly adding new bitcoins each day, as there is no one able to check this.

It is as bloody stupid as a bank having unlimited ability to print its own banknotes, and no one having any idea how many are in circulation.

Investing in bitcoin is like investing in bit of rubbish paper being blown in the streets.


But I have some magic beans that will grow into a magical beanstalk that I aim to sell to gullible Doug, which I will assure hold tremendous future growth potential.


Prospective Bitcoin buyers would do well to read up on the South Sea Bubble.
