Bitcoin to the moon!? LITERALLY

[Fazlurkhan.kz]

We come across the phrase BITCOIN TO THE MOON really often. Some workers of the Genesis Mining Team took it seriously. They sent a paper wallet on a 3D model of a Bitcoin into space with the help of a weather balloon. This is about two year ago in september 2016, when the price of bitcoin was really not that high. They wanted to show somehow that bitcoin will reach greater heights, and decided why not SEND it to greater heights.
Do you think what they did was advisable? I can't say right or wrong because they owned them and they could do whatever with it but was it a wise move? Will it be counted as wastage of bitcoins?
Your thoughts?

I guess they took the sending it to greater heights very literal.  However, I wonder if at any point they thought they screwed up by sending their paper wallet as  Bitcoin approached 20k? (or maybe they had a copy of their paper wallet to be on the safe side).

maybe it is true that they sent a paper wallet of a bitcoin into space to express their hopes and enthusiasm that bitcoin will really fly to the moon ,although it's really unbelievable to waste that kind of things but their effort is not wasted at all because bitcoin value is setting an ATH in the following year.

My opinion about that it is that what they did is none of our business, it is their choice, just like what you have said, its their bitcoin, they can do whatever they wanted to do with it, let's not just meddle with their bitcoins. Even though after what they did, bitcoin will still going to the moon, it is not like they control the market, NO, maybe they have bitcoins, but there are more investors who hold more bitcoins than them, and it is bitcoin's nature to go to the moon as always.

wouldn't be that hard if you consider Elon Musk sent a freaking Tesla over Mars (and above).. somebody should have contacted him to put in the trunk of the car a paper wallet

Not exactly to the moon, it crossed the Armstrong limit in the space, It went around 30km above the Armstrong limit.
And yes bitcoins value will surely increase.

(or maybe they had a copy of their paper wallet to be on the safe side).

Might be!

Yeah, if we see from this opinion then that was wastage of resources!
Which somehow did good.

If the purse with bitcoins was tied to a regular ball, which are sold in a store filled with helium, then this ball will not fly into any space. He will run low over the earth in the atmosphere, until he falls to the ground. If the preparation for this event was more serious, then such a ball could rise to the high layers with a rarefied atmosphere of kilometers by twenty, however, it seems to me that it must fall to the Earth on a vseravno.
This event was rather symbolic.

A helium-filled balloon can float very high up into the atmosphere, however, it cannot float up into outer space. The air in Earth's atmosphere gets thinner the higher up you go.

The balloon can only rise up until the atmosphere surrounding it has the same weight as the helium in the balloon. This happens at about a height of 20 miles (32 kilometers) above Earth's surface.

The moon's orbit around Earth is elliptical. At the closest approach, the moon comes as close as 225,623 miles (363,104 kilometers) from the earth. So that Balloon will never reach the moon.
