RE: What the Fuck is this BitConnect 'Smart Card' Baboozery?

in #steemit7 years ago

Haven't heard of bitconnect before, but that video is pure marketing wank. The BS-meter is going off full red alert.

They better watch it, though, Disney/Lucasfilm might not like the Star Wars theme being used for a commercial venture like this.

Also, their presenters spoke in Thai briefly, so I have some suspicions on who this presentation is truly meant for and what type of people may be behind this venture.

Bitcoin itself is, however, going incredibly strong. Trading at $6087/ea as of today. Kicking myself in the butt every day for not buying way more back in 2010. Business school training can paradoxically prevent you from sometimes seeing the possibility of these kinds of opportunities.

Sort:  

I missed the boat on Bitcoin, swore I wouldn't miss out on the next big coin, then missed the boat on Ethereum as well. I have nobody to blame now but myself.

Not the only one who missed the boat. I first heard about Bitcoin when it was like $2. I sort of wrote it off and didn't really hear much about it till it was like $100. I bought a bit but should have loaded up. I then proceeded to get scammed out of about half my BTC. So yeah lots of woulda, coulda shoulda but it is all a learning experience. At least I didn't lose money.

After getting scammed I sort of stopped paying attention to crypto for awhile and missed Ethereum. So I swore to pay attention to crypto and at least be involved in some way going forward. That's how I ended up on Steemit.
