If you have a fraud charge, you are accused of a crime. Because he settled, he hasn't been convicted of a crime.

Saylor wasn't found guilty of a crime. He paid a fine to the SEC of $350,000 and had to disgorge over 8 million dollars of ill-gotten gains. But he didn't have to acknowledge wrongdoing. He's clearly a life but legally speaking, not a convicted criminal.

That is what i said, so?

Bitcoin’s performance for the last 12 months vs. S&P 500, neither a hedge against inflation or the stock market:

Isn't it convenient that the 1 year graph fits your narrative! 

 

How about a longer timeframe(10 years) to get an unbiased reality?

His post was in regards to inflation hedging which he clearly stated.  You just made the perfect strawman and that has nothing to do with the post he made.  When did rampant inflation begin? The last year? Maybe this is why the time period was chosen- just sayin...

What a strange post. If you can't see what he is doing, fool you.

The Bitcoin 1 year increase appears out of line with current data.

When was the start date of the chart? Using recent data might be more unbiased. Just a thought.

I guess it was 10 years ago. 

Google btc v s&p 500.

 

Btc is a great long hedge against inflation. But obviously if you take a short time anything can happen, esp as there was a war in the last 6 months! 

 

I could easily choose a date to show btc has done much better than S&p

March 2020, btc was $3,500, now it is over $29,000.

I wish I could say what I really think about the following people but I would be banned. Disgusting. 

@mokwit  @John Drake @GrandPap   @chippendale

What is really hilarious is these posters are hanging out in the 'Cryptocurrency forum' now. They hate it but somehow can't get enough of it

Indeed, all of this crypto malarkey should be confined to the 'Crypto Malarkey Forum'.

 

Further, all the Wise (Formerly TransferWise ????) stuff should in all honesty be swept into a 'Wise for the Unwise Forum' as it's equally tedious.

well, as nobody commented, I will answer to myself: we are at number 3 now, number 2 was in June when BTC hit 17500 for a moment.
