Last chance to buy under $1000 forever?!
It could well have been, it's a real possibility. I hope so any way, I'd love $1,000 to be seen as a new floor.

Back above $1K, and not a single Average Joe around me knows anything more about Bitcoin/blockchain than they did in 2013, or even seems to care. This is amazing.
Now I know why they call them "late adopters". I don't blame the really old, the really young or the unborn. I blame the older, middle-aged folks who have money to invest, but are just too plain ignorant or scared to see the financial change tsunami that is coming. By the time they finally look up, Bitcoin will be well north of $10K.
I remember my grandmother still writing physical checks for everything, 7-8 years after the rest of society had moved on to using the debit card. She finally used one a few years before she died, and I remember the look on her face.... she was blown away at the speed and convenience. Priceless.
I remember me getting on dial-up on the PC in my bedroom, when my parents though I was in there "hacking" ala War Games style. They thought the internet was and always would be just a toy for nerds.
I remember carrying around a clunky Treo smartphone (which was actually smaller than your average smartphone today), when literally *everyone* had crappy flip phones and thought that smartphones were only for nerds. Especially the women, lol.

Somebody bought the dips? We were below $1000 twice in the last 12 hours! Curious if we will be able to continue moving up or if some guys will lose faith and start to dump.

Agreed, I'm surprised at how little people know about bitcoin even now. I never thought I was an early adopter but I'm beginning to think we are. I'm glad there is no hype and media attention around $1000 this time... we need to stop putting $1000 on a pedestal, it's long overdue... I want the hype to come when we hit the next milestone of $2000... and then people will be like oh shit, I knew about bitcoin when it was $900!

$1,000 seems to act as some kind of psychological sell alarm to people, I don't know why but it does. I'll probably start thinking like that at $10,000 but $1,000 is nothing.

However the main part of the stash you own shouldn't be sold! Bitcoin is way too precious. There could come a time where others would like to kill you just to own one single Bitcoin!

I suppose in the end you cant remove the human element.
Humans tend towards generalisation, in a way 1000$ is a generalisation.
You cant separate people from feelings.

If you own one bitcoin you are in the top 68% richest people in the world. If you have 100 bitcoins you are one of the top 8% richest people in the world. 600 bitcoins and you're a one percenter. http://www.globalrichlist.com/wealth

An early good morning Bitcoinland.
Slept most of yesterday and I see I missed some real fun. Burst through the $1000 barrier, soared up over $1030, crashed down to triple digits and bounced most of the way back up... currently $1028USD (Bitcoinaverage).
Whew. Hopefully that was our last dip back to triple digits.
Go Bitcoin go.
