It’s actually kind of unfortunate but I understand the thought around being positive in light of something bad.

I can’t imagine the El Salvador treasury enjoys their purchasing power not increasing nor anyone else with a significant portion of wealth in bitcoin.

The exchange rate of bitcoin for goods/services is the ultimate free market expression of the value of the censorship resistant, inflation resistant currency that is bitcoin. That exchange rate being lower is bad, not good.

No worries on my part and I think it was a positive step. My only point is we’re saying the grapes are sour when we ‘celebrate’ bitcoin price going down. Unless one isn’t heavily allocated of course.
