Bitcoin price "plunges" down to checks notes $54,517
Oh no my shiitakes!
Almost like it was always a grift
It's just another stock at this point, only not tied in any way to reality. Bc most of it is now held by financial institutions whenever there's a market selloff Bitcoin will plunge too as funds look for sources of liquidity.
These dorks ended up building the opposite thing of what they set out to create.
All this news about drops here and there are very heartwarming.
I was probably never gonna sell anyway.
If you never sell, you don't lose money /fivehead
I'm still delighted and amazed that they named their mascot "conny".
