Title: I can't handle these prices... How much was that again?? Post by: oOoOo on April 02, 2013, 01:16:27 AM Maybe it's just me, but I have difficulties adjusting to these recent price changes. In my mind a BTC is still somewhere around ~$9 USD, it has been there for so long, I guess it just kinda stuck. Now I suddenly see things like 9.7BTC being sold for 1000.- USD and I thought it must have been some kind of bug..?
So now we gotta calculate everything back to fiat again, just to get a somewhat accurate sense of what the value actually is? Anyone else feel this?? Title: Re: I can't handle these prices...

If you bet a bitcoin, you're still betting a bitcoin. A bitcoin is still a bitcoin. ;D Title: Re: I can't handle these prices... How much was that again??

A bitcoin is still a bitcoin. ;D Yeah, but how hard it is to get those bitcoins back has changed, as has what you can get for 1... Cpt. Obvious for the win. Title: Re: I can't handle these prices...

Title: Re: I can't handle these prices... How much was that again?? Post by: lebing on April 02, 2013, 06:48:43 AM This happened to me last month when I chose not to renew cypher's subscription. Because with all due respect, no newsletter is worth $300 a month! I also have to make some mental shits when I play blackjack/SD. I switched my bitzino currency display to cB, so that the numeric value is approx the same as a USD. Otherwise I end up tilting and betting way too much. -.- Or $500 a month for S3052 =o Title: Re: I can't handle these prices... How much was that again?? Post by: Amitabh S on April 02, 2013, 07:52:51 AM I gave a talk on bitcoin recently. When the talk was announced, it was mentioned 33 usd.. At the talk I had to make it 80, and now just 5 days later they realize its 100. Imagine whats going on their heads ;D ;D
