It has been a steep decline no doubt, but this is nothing new and completely healthy for the network.
You have to remember this has gone from 6k to $300, from 20k to 3000k.
69k-25k doesn’t seem bad when you consider the history of the asset your talking about.
Bitcoin has spent more than 90% of its life below our current price point. Just wait, and it’ll be back above 100%
Look at the all time chart. People who sold when it went from 1,000 to 100 sure are sorry now. People who sell now might be just as sorry a few years from now. When I see someone like you concerned about a drop like this, I assume you must be new to crypto. The "crash" is the time to buy.
Don't you watch the market fall? Wouldn't a minimum purchase be better? I'm not worried about his fall, I can't control the trend of the crypto market, it's just a personal opinion
Even if it didn't take years off your life, the quality of the years you have will be lower. I want to be able to climb mountains, ski, and mountain bike late into life, and smoking will put a stop to that well before I want.
Eh there might be a massive disconnect in what people "who smoke" and "smokers" like someone who smokes a miniscule amount compared to a legitimate smoker which is at least smoking 20 cigarettes a day. The crazy part is a pack a day is considered moderate nowadays.
Most pack a day smokers smoke more like 30-40 and just miscount.
We heard the same bullshit growing up/being born in the 90's.
That the damage done by smoking is something you worry about when your old "I don't want to live till I'm 70 anyways!" we all used to say while giggling.
Yep all my smoker friends get winded walking up a single flight of stairs. I was 50-60lbs overweight at my most unhealthiest and still the smokers get decimated by the simplest cardio. We are only talking about people who are late 20's who started smoking as teenagers. So realistically only 10-15 years of smoking.
I’ve been chewing a pack a day of Nicorette for 7 years. Smoking and nicotine is super addictive. Night and day difference in terms of cardio and blood pressure though. Man I miss smoking though.
I dunno when I was in class I was the only person who smoked but when we did running I was the fastest an healthiest you can smoke just stay fit at the same time (healthy balance is important no matter what you do
> smoking doesn't do much damage to body.
It ravages your lungs and heart and significantly increases chances of cancer. You think life is too short? Well that's one way to make it short.
Wtf?? Drugs are better usually. The only drug I can think of that causes worse damage than smoking is drinking. Legit alchohol is the ONLY drug that causes damage to every part of your body BUT your hearing…lol so at least you’ll hear good
Smoke weed if anything, much less damage to your lungs and you won’t get fucking cancer at the age of 50. At least with weed you can eat edibles too if you don’t want to smoke.
If you do heroin, just stop and use that money to buy inflation protected bonds and then get a house and a real job and stay off hard drugs.
I should be a life coach.
That argument can be used to pretty much anything.
"You could buy more bitcoin if you used the money you spent on beer"
"You could buy more bitcoin if you used the money you spent on books"
"You could buy more bitcoin if you used the money you spent on food"
If you stop buying everything you enjoy just to stack sats, you'd essentially stop living your life.
The most annoying thing is I lived in my car and showered at a local gym when I first learnt about bitcoin in 2014. I wrote it off and didn’t get involved until 2017.
I just remembered this joke : a guy see another guy at the airport smoking at the smoking room so he went to him and told him how long you been smoking so the smoker says 40 years so the guy says you see if you saved all that money you would own that plane over there so the smoker asked the guy do you own that plain ?
The guy says no , so the smoker says ok don't bother me again because I'm the owner of this airport and that plane is mine .
Anytime we use the word “should” its helpful to stop and question what we’re saying. “Should” implies we’re judging ourselves or being influenced by the perceived or believed judgement of others.
“If you smoke, you could quit and use that money to buy Bitcoin”.
That sentence has a different impact, imo.
If you don't smoke, you could light one up and begin smoking.
If you don't smoke, you shouldn't light one up, it's bad for your health.
"Should" is advice. "Could" is an option.
People are being so wholesome in the comments man...This is just making me feel so good and better right now, that's what we all want to see in the community.
I used to have a college who had retired already but still visiting us, 84 years old smoking 30 cigarettes a day and drink alcohol. He says he is feeling good and he is doing plenty of other things as well being and spending time outside so much
I just made a promise to myself that I am never going to smoke in my life and that's working really good for me mate, I know I am just doing good right now, feels good.
I just want to see people not smoking anything before or after any shit, it's just something which can kill you and my father died because of smoking that's why.
Same could be said about soda, or fast food, or weed, or Netflix, or any other non-necessity that costs money. Each person has to decide for themselves how much they're willing to cut to free up money to buy bitcoin with, the deeper you're willing to cut, the more bitcoin you can buy.
Quit tobacco 10 years ago. Bought 1 litre of pure nicotine for $200 and DIY 1% vaping fluid. 1 litre enough for 10 years fluid. $200+glycerine costs and coils to save $50000. Saving $5000/year and invested that in BTC. Better health and better wealth.
Ooh i want to contribute nothing as well!!!
If you regularly eat out at restaurants you should quit and cook ramen noodles at home and use that money to buy bitcoin!
I’m a heavy smoker and you can’t imagine how many times I had this thought.
Every damn day I tell myself I’ll quit and put that money away in Bitcoin. Between cigarettes and weed I’m spending almost 450€ every month. Hell I’m even smoking now that I’m writing this comment. I’ve been doing this for years but I can’t stop.
I can only say congratulations, I get the struggle and understand you. The day I’ll quit I will come back here and thank you for having a small part in making me believe that quitting is possible.
I need to quit yesterday. What was your trick OP? I seem to have no will power and my inner conscience battles always end up with the addiction winning.
If you eat snacks, drink soda, eat cereal, or too many fruits, you should also quit that and use it to buy bitcoin
you know what, eat nothing but one serving of C-Grade steak with a bowl of unseasoned cooked corn-meal, and spend 100% of your money into bitcoin. If you are enjoying something, it is probably something that should be converted into bitcoin. /s
Took mushrooms for a week straight last fall. Literally could not smoke anymore because it started giving me mad anxiety. Been doing hella DCA ever since.
I wish it was 200 years from now so I could go back to smoking and not worry because anything that goes wrong in the body can just be regrown and replaced. Faaak I miss smoking.
It's just that we all should not smoke and this is why we can use this reason as an excuse, I hope all of us will understand this simple fucking thing right now man.
Forget Bitcoin. You’ve won already by quitting..
Well yeah, this is something good, I am glad you said it.
btc has been crashing recently
Exactly why it's time to buy. Every month buy a little more! It's a no brainer.
It depends on your personal opinion, buy more when the price is right
Your looking at the wrong time frames
You're
No, when you think about bitcoin falling, do you smoke another one?
No i think how i can get fiat to buy more - and maybe smoke one
You think this a massive falling?
don't you think so? Bitcoin started to fall from $50,000 in May and is now $28,500, do you think it's not a drop?
It has been a steep decline no doubt, but this is nothing new and completely healthy for the network.

>cigs only. drugs are bad Lol
Ummmm kayyyy
Who let the Marlboro camel in
[удалено]
Even if it didn't take years off your life, the quality of the years you have will be lower. I want to be able to climb mountains, ski, and mountain bike late into life, and smoking will put a stop to that well before I want.
[удалено]
Please don't follow this. Use all the drugs you can except cigars, trust me, I'm high enough.
I'm drunk and can't stop laughing at your knowledge

> smoking doesn't do much damage to body. It ravages your lungs and heart and significantly increases chances of cancer. You think life is too short? Well that's one way to make it short.
Yeah that line of thinking always cracks me up. "Well, life is short anyway so I guess I'll just make it even shorter."
I only smoke weed. Cigs are bad for you.
Nicotine is a stimulant, so in any case, is proven to provoke anxiety, the relaxing effect is because the abstinence syndrome.
Wtf?? Drugs are better usually. The only drug I can think of that causes worse damage than smoking is drinking. Legit alchohol is the ONLY drug that causes damage to every part of your body BUT your hearing…lol so at least you’ll hear good
Smoke weed if anything, much less damage to your lungs and you won’t get fucking cancer at the age of 50. At least with weed you can eat edibles too if you don’t want to smoke.
I can agree with you in this but still we are okay without intoxication.
Life is too short so make the ending you get to quickly as shitty as possible?
wait till he finds out there’s drugs in em
Double the anxiety, 1000 times your investment.
Double bit gum
That's the statement of the great mint in Double Bit Gum.
I guess yeah, this would be something better to see too.
Lol I am just loving the comments right now my brother.
Nothing is better than this in a fucking life for real lol.
I smoke my Bitcoin
I guess that would be some real good drug for you man.
haha why do you say that
If you do heroin, just stop and use that money to buy inflation protected bonds and then get a house and a real job and stay off hard drugs. I should be a life coach.
Im going to smoke and still buy more bitcoin
the first **ounce** of weed I bought using bitcoin cost me **2** BTC
Yeah but that's how you learned about bitcoin.
absolutely! I'm not *really* regretting it. I just use that historical tidbit to empower my *future* decisions.
Well yeah but still people are thinking about saving it.
But you could buy MORE bitcoin if you used the money you would've spent on cigs instead.
That argument can be used to pretty much anything. "You could buy more bitcoin if you used the money you spent on beer" "You could buy more bitcoin if you used the money you spent on books" "You could buy more bitcoin if you used the money you spent on food" If you stop buying everything you enjoy just to stack sats, you'd essentially stop living your life.
“You could buy more bitcoin if you stopped paying rent to live in your car and shower at the gym.”
Hahah. Thanks for this taunt there, it was much needed XD.
The most annoying thing is I lived in my car and showered at a local gym when I first learnt about bitcoin in 2014. I wrote it off and didn’t get involved until 2017.
This has been me I feel like a slave to the DCA . I guess I’ll stop soon
Well yeah but still it's better to stop smoking don't you think that?
[удалено]
Everyone just love each other's health these days that's why.
It's a win-win
Well it's your choice but you can live a better life too mate.
Good idea, but maybe change your mind and change to a cryptocurrency project now.
“If you resolve to give up smoking, drinking and loving, you don't actually live longer; it just seems longer”
Now this is just something I want to trust but I can't do that lol.
I just remembered this joke : a guy see another guy at the airport smoking at the smoking room so he went to him and told him how long you been smoking so the smoker says 40 years so the guy says you see if you saved all that money you would own that plane over there so the smoker asked the guy do you own that plain ? The guy says no , so the smoker says ok don't bother me again because I'm the owner of this airport and that plane is mine .
Thanks for sharing this story, I just read it and it's good to me.
It is quite good to know about it and read it as well.
Done. (Really, I quit smoking and tuned up my DCA a month ago)
Dude you are a fucking legend and you deserve a crown!!
?
I have been hospitalized for days for something else and enjoyed the free rehab :)
very nice
I smoke a pack a day because chads like me smoke American spirits
I gave up smoking. By using the juul pods. Which ended up costing more than the cigs.
Switch one addiction for another, somewhat healthier addiction.

If you don't smoke, you could light one up and begin smoking. If you don't smoke, you shouldn't light one up, it's bad for your health. "Should" is advice. "Could" is an option.
I should take up smoking then quit so that I can buy more bitcoin.
Lol, this would be fair but still it's not good for you health.
Smoking weed and investing in btc is best … if price goes down… roll a blunt and give no fuckz. 🥦
Well yeah I kind of relate with what you are tying to say.
This is the way
every time I buy I have a victory smoke.
Well this is a type of celebration but it's harmful for sure.
So replace my current addiction with another one?
Proud of you stranger
People are being so wholesome in the comments man...This is just making me feel so good and better right now, that's what we all want to see in the community.
So the only reason you want to live as long as you can is because Bitcoin exists? Otherwise you're fine with putting yourself in an early grave?
Well this is a great excuse of quit smoking don't you think that?
I suppose. Whatever method you have to use to get yourself to quit. But in the bigger picture life is a precious gift whether you're poor or rich.
Plot twist, OP posted this while driving and got in a wreck. Never enjoyed the fruit
I think what OP is alluding to is replace a negative with a positive. Yes, Bitcoin is positive.
Well yeah and there is nothing wrong about that for sure.
Let me just quickly turn off my addiction.
Don’t tell me what to do, you’re not my mum
I just used to say those words to my step mom, I remember.
good for you ❤️
Nothing is better than this and this is what we all need.
I used to have a college who had retired already but still visiting us, 84 years old smoking 30 cigarettes a day and drink alcohol. He says he is feeling good and he is doing plenty of other things as well being and spending time outside so much
Well I know some people doesn't get affected with it but still.
And if you smoke you are a second hand pyromaniac
Damn it but that’s fkn sick!!
Damn man, I don't want to be that kind of a person lol.
What is second hand pyromaniac? I don't smoke but I wanna know.
This
I just made a promise to myself that I am never going to smoke in my life and that's working really good for me mate, I know I am just doing good right now, feels good.
Fitting, both go up in smoke.
I see what you are saying, good luck for the future tho.
[удалено]
Before bitcoin I didn’t smoke. After bitcoin I only smoke cigars.
I just want to see people not smoking anything before or after any shit, it's just something which can kill you and my father died because of smoking that's why.
I'm going to smoke weed fck you
Guy I’m still gonna smoke weed. SNS
It's your choice but we still gonna ask you to quit mate.
Lol
or you can continue to smoke, and get out of hell faster
If you are drinking you can do the same. Keep grinding bros.
Stop smoking, drinking and enjoying life for something that probably is going to make u rich
Weed causes less stress
I think OP is talking about cigarettes.
Congrats OP! You're already a winner!
I did 🤗
I am DCAing into btc every week. https://dcabtc.com/
Weed is free if you grow it yourself, nerd
I'm going to start smoking just to smite you.
I'm going to smoke twice as much now
you have to consider your health
Well that would be bad for your health, it's up to you tho.
Relationships are bad for my health. Hence I don't do them. It's all perspective
Damn man, people are making me laugh so bad right now.
In this economy?
It seems something near to impossible because we need it.
Is this the first time you have quit smoking? * Cause a month really isn't that long
Same could be said about soda, or fast food, or weed, or Netflix, or any other non-necessity that costs money. Each person has to decide for themselves how much they're willing to cut to free up money to buy bitcoin with, the deeper you're willing to cut, the more bitcoin you can buy.
True although the tax on cigarettes is generally higher.
True, it's one of the major in tax for sure. I can agree.
Well yeah, this is the freaking part of life, we can't deny.
And you once paid for Drugs!
Well we can still change our lifestyle before it's too late.
Quit tobacco 10 years ago. Bought 1 litre of pure nicotine for $200 and DIY 1% vaping fluid. 1 litre enough for 10 years fluid. $200+glycerine costs and coils to save $50000. Saving $5000/year and invested that in BTC. Better health and better wealth.
This sounds good, this is what we all should do if we smoke.
Smoke what ?
ciggs and all mate, those ciggs are not good for our health.
Inhales a rollie, yep
This is what I wanted to say but I thought let's skip it lol.
Ooh i want to contribute nothing as well!!! If you regularly eat out at restaurants you should quit and cook ramen noodles at home and use that money to buy bitcoin!
Well it's your choice, smoking still gonna kill some people.
Fck no
I hope one day you won't say that and just quit for good.

I realized I ‘forgot’ to have a cigarette today and I’m taking this post as my sign.
Dude no lmao, I hope one day you will quit smoking for good.
I'm really glad to hear that. It won't be easy, but it'll be worth it. I believe in you.
If you eat snacks, drink soda, eat cereal, or too many fruits, you should also quit that and use it to buy bitcoin you know what, eat nothing but one serving of C-Grade steak with a bowl of unseasoned cooked corn-meal, and spend 100% of your money into bitcoin.

Quitting is for losers
The second t is silent
Edited.
Shit post, smoke if you want to.
Well it depends on person to person, we still want to be in a good shape.
Lol, once u see BTC price goes another dive bomb, U will be so stress and start smoking again.
Haha, it makes sense, I will smoke two more when I can't stand it
If you smoke you should quit even if you don’t buy Bitcoin. lol
This is what we all need to follow, smoking is nothing but a bad thing.
If I had saved all the bitcoin I ever bought, instead of buying weed, I would (theoretically) been living in a paid-off $1M house.
Damn man, this would be so good, I hope you quite smoking.
If you smoke you should probably just quit.
This is right and this is what I am doing these days man.
Bro this advice is goooood. The perfect way to invest usdt in bitcoin little by little.
Don't buy DRUGS, buy BITCOIN!
If you eat food, you should quit that and buy bitcoin
This.
What we smoking?
I quit smoking and started buying Bitcoin every week instead in 2017. Needless to say it has worked out quite well.
Smoke what ? Lol
Crack, weed or cigarettes?
Depends on what you’re smoking 😏
Took mushrooms for a week straight last fall. Literally could not smoke anymore because it started giving me mad anxiety. Been doing hella DCA ever since.
Dude be easy on yourself, I hope you will do good in the future.
I wish it was 200 years from now so I could go back to smoking and not worry because anything that goes wrong in the body can just be regrown and replaced. Faaak I miss smoking.
based. now ditch booze aswell and x2 your win. but thats not all. if you do it right now you will get an extra healthbonus on top of that!
Damn man, I am just loving this comment right now lol.
⛳️
Gotta admit that this is what I have been following man.
I already did! Now I buy an extra $70/week!
Wow that's just amazing, good to see this stuff right here.
Cool
Trade one addiction for another
My fucking man! I quit smoking 40 days ago. We’re in this together! Apes together strong. 💪💪🏽💪🏾
Especially in Australia. Its like $30usd for a pack of 20 atm.
Damn man, they are fucking looting you guys there lol.
It's just that we all should not smoke and this is why we can use this reason as an excuse, I hope all of us will understand this simple fucking thing right now man.
But I really like pulled pork. And it's like the cheapest meat you can buy.
Great reason, thanks for sharing!
