Bitcoin Passes $4,000 USD

https://youtu.be/ZTPfOIsWF5g

So F!$king what?

If you have a shitload of Bitcoin, what's the difference between $3,999 & $4,000?

If you don't have a shitload of Bitcoin why do you care?

Just another irrelevant metric for people to pee themselves over.

I'm going to go change my armor.

I care.
I _withdrew_  .019 bitcoin yesterday.
Today the value of what is left is higher than before I withdrew it.

So you took money out and continued making more. Next week when it drops back to $2800 you can buy it back plus a few satoshis to keep it company.

I'll be excited when you can buy a gallon of milk or a pound of butter without converting it.

Then it'll mean something.

In the meantime, I'm going to dig up my Beanie Baby collection out of the back yard, I think it's time to retire to that tropical island next to The Zuckerberg.

You seem to be a little bitter.
I suppose if you have Beanie Babies that would explain it.

It's typical day-trader hysteria.

At some point, market forces are going to take over.

$0.92

I agree with many others here that it is important. Not so much for the actual number as you say but for the implication of the inflow of money and broader acceptance of the long term existence of cryptocurrencies. Passing gold itself had great significance in terms of trust. But each new high will bring more attention. I am waiting for the price to inevitably drop below $3000 for the next buy but I think i would have a long wait for $2000.

Perhaps you were just writing to shake the audience up and see who had some tomatoes for you :)

When I looked at the New tab, the top 5 or 6 posts were the exact same topic.

I was also at 3399 posts so I decided it was a sign from above to make the post. ;-)
