I wasn't even tempted. I knew I would start bad mouthing BlackRock and Saylor, and I didn't know if that would be counter productive
I suspect, amongst the truly well indoctrinated, professionally educated crowd, you were/would have been right. If they, well and truly, absorbed all of their college indoctrination, they would have been throwing rotten tomatoes and rotten eggs at you, real quick. Blackrock has been donating to colleges for too long not to have the fatal pull that they have accumulated and perhaps Saylor, being the silver-tonged devil that he is, may have spoken at their college when they were there.

You could have led the conversation towards long term profits?
I wonder if they had a superficial knowledge of bitcoin, or if they have actually taken time to read about it.
I feel many people are in it for the quick profit, not realizing how much they are hurting their future by selling so quickly.

This was without a doubt a quick profit bunch.

Unless someone can send and receive Bitcoin actual Bitcoin (at least once) they don't understand it at all imo.
Someone buying the ETF without having made a Bitcoin transaction has no fucking idea what they are buying imo.

The Wall Street guys make money by churning your portfolio! How did you think they made money, by buying low and holding or selling high and buying low? The brokers and people advising other people on how to invest make commissions on how much they buy and sell, not on how much money you make. It is a mook’s game if you are in it.
You always have to look around the table for the chump. If you can’t readily figure out who the chump is, it is

Goldman is a Jewish name. Sachs is a Jewish name.

Well it isn’t up to you to decide whether you saying something would be productive or backfire. Sometimes we need someone to plant ideas in our head even if we resist that new idea at that point in time - and you could be it haha.
But it must have a nice moment to witness. All these supposedly stupid working class people taking profits in Bitcoin, not resigned to their fate, believing in something other than the stocks narrative
