Yeah, we hit about $1010 momentarily in June, touched $1000 on Nov3 and again briefly on Nov9, but in this last day we seem to have broken through.
It's been solidly over $1000 for quite a few hours now and when it touched $1013.64 tonight, that was the highest it's been in almost 3 years.
This shows the value of Bitcoin. We not only earned from Bitcoin increasing in value, we also earned from keeping our money elsewhere than fiat currency. As the loonie tanked, our bitcoins kept growing.
Woohoo indeed.
Cheers.

I just love that our loonie tanked while the bitcoin price went up. I started buying at the 300-400 range so it's going to have to be a 66% drop before I lose any money. I'm in for the long haul at this point (obviously).
Edit: just me being neurotic but I also like the fact that when someone says they'll pay some arbitrary amount of bitcoins I don't have to whip out a calculator anymore to figure out 843xY=Z CAD$ lol. It's $1000 a bitcoin give or take so
BTC0.01 is $10
BTC0.5 is 500. Easy peasy lemon squeezey
