EOY thread (for moon boys and their sincere apologies)

[Alex1 58]

EOY is finally here. Hundreds of delusional bagholders aggressively promoted their nonsense ("$1 is almost here", "$589 is round the corner", etc.), calling it a "positive attitude". They did it for the whole year, shutting up and shaming everyone who disagrees.

My gut feeling tells me, that 2019 gonna be even worse for all of us - believers and non-believers, but for now I don't want to discuss any price predictions and reasons for the downtrend

What I want to see in this thread is at least one overexcited optimist admitting his mistakes. Is it really so hard to say: "yes, I was wrong"?

[G-Men 165]

awwwww...someone wants an apology.

[JBW 292]

I can start. I really and truly believed that xrp will be at least 2 euro by EOY. I did not shout it out here. I have not shamed anyone if they disagree with me. Yes I was wrong... so what  2019 is around the corner and I think it will be a great year for xrp price

[Vvittin 130]

So you want people to say you were right...an they were wrong? Well...despite prices the only question you should be asking is, is the xrp eco system better or worse than it was a year ago....I’ll even take that one step broader...is the crypto asset eco system better of or worse than a year ago? 

What’s equally as hard as saying your wrong....is...well....being modest about when your right...and remember your only right...at this moment....that may change, and if it does I won’t ask you to say I’m right or wrong..invest your money how you see fit...after all it’s your money.

You sound like someone who desperately needs a *******, should we crowdfund one for you?

[Caracappa 299]

I withheld myself from doing any prediction (beside quietly hoping ofcourse), but did believe 2018 would be a boring year for crypto after such a big bullrun without a fundamental value. I think it was Asheesh Birla who said in an end of 2017 interview that he expected a bad year for 2018, but mainly because of regulations kicking in. Sounded plausible so believed the same.

All I know is I still believe in Ripple the company, the goal they try to achieve, and that 2018 was a great year of 'buying when there is blood in te streets' of the possible utilized asset XRP in the future.

So I'm somewhat glad that a correction such as these throws out the 'get rich quick' guys and gives investors of fundamental assets a chance to build where others dump their investment.

Who's right will be determined in that future. I've got time to wait it out.

Most of the time I don't have a problem with admitting I was wrong - I hoped for 10 USD by June in January and also expected / whished for a christmas run to around 1 USD a couple of weeks ago. So what?
And for the record: I'd be more than happy to be proven an idiot for NOT believing in 3 figure predictions for the near future, at least I'd be a rich idiot

If 2019 rocks your socks off, will you proactively make a thread and apologize or do we have to drag it out of you? 

If so, I will right now apologize for having silent hopes of a good return in 2018 (who doesn't, bet you did have hopes), although somewhat knowing chances were slim after that bull.

[Julian_Williams 3,747]

I try not to make any public prediction about what price something will be on what date.  I have been surprised that we are as low as .34 because that was way below my lowest expectations.  I do not think people who believed XRP would moon during 2018 are delusional, they were wrong.  I do not see why people have to apologise every time they get a prediction wrong or preen themselves when a prediction turns out to be right.

I think XRP is the strongest stallion in the race and will one day become a super valuable DA.  I am not sure if that means it will be valued at 10, 100 or 1000 dollars, I do not rule out any of these possibilities.

I'm not defending moonboys, but I don't understand who do you want them to apologize to? To you? Were you misled by some random guy on the xrp chat and bought your xrp?

If you think that 2019 will be even worse that 2018, maybe you should sell now before the price goes down.

To be worse than last year XRP will have to lose another 90% of its value! Is Alex1 advising us to sell?  Will Alex1 apologise when it goes up to 1 dollar and all us muffins are sitting on the sidelines having sold on his/her predictions

There is nothing to apologize for. Everyone makes his own choices so whether you have made right or wrong decisions, it's up to you.

I don't know if this thread is advising us to sell or something else, I was just annoyed by its title.
