Peak Bitcoin was in 2016 as Vlad pointed out.

Price shortly after rallied to 20k and then the it took 8 years going from 20k to 120k while USD money supply more than doubled.

We are plateauing for almost a decade even price wise. iRL adoption is still stuck at level of 2016.

Back then Microsoft, Steam, Expedia all accepted Bitcoin directly.

People are celebrating for the wrong causes. Wallstreet got in before our neighbours which is a bad thing.

I tend to agree, but that's the main reason I'm here.

The most interesting aspect of bitcoin is you can take it with you even in times of war. As long as you can memorize 12 words, you can make yoir wealth unconfiscatable.

Imagine if you were Japanese in an Internment camp during WWII. All your property was confiscated for no other reason other than your identity. If you made it to 1988, you got a $20k reperation, but $20k in 1988 versus 20k in 1945 is not the same ballpark.

Imagine if you could memorize 12 words with

$20k worth of bitcoin for 43 years. How much more spending power would you have? What if you were in an internment camp? It still sucks, but when you get out in 5 years you're bitcoin is now worth $200,000. You're not super rich, but you're better off.

That's not something you can buy in an ETF or bitcoin treasury company. It's too easy for the government to take that treasure away.
