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??

Everyone feels it.  It's the Doctor Who Effect.

A bitcoin mined in 2009 is a bitcoin.
If you bet a bitcoin, you're still betting a bitcoin.

Yeah, but how hard it is to get those bitcoins back has changed, as has what you can get for 1...

Last month I paid 1.4BTC for my hosting service. This month I will be paying closer to half a bitcoin.

That, I like. Smiley

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

Bro, do you even blockchain?
