1000 btc = 1000 btc. Nothing more, nothing less. All these posts attaching it to some exchange rate is ridiculous.
Why call someone with 1000btc rich?? If he exchanges today to fiat he may get ~US$400k. Not exactly rich, but it's ok. If he holds and exchange rate drops, then definitely not rich anymore.
At the moment it's another investment option alongside precious stones, precious metals, art, antiques, real estate, shares and so on. Just because someone throws fiat into bitcoin, doesn't mean they believe in bitcoin - they could just be diversifying.
Anyone who holds bitcoins = a bitcoiner. No matter the amount.
