The believers are being tested.
In years to come you will descend to the ground level of the mega cities to a small faded bar. In the neon gloom the barman will serve you your spirits for a satoshi as you recount your story. 'I was rich once you know. I had 100 bitcoins. Remember dollars? Well the price of bitcoin in Old Dollars kept changing. I held in 2011. I kept my coins in 2012. I even kept them in spring 2013. But that summer, that terrible mad summer, I sold them. All. See that block up there? 'Bulls Corner' they call it? So high it's in the cloud at times. There is a Penthouse on the 200th floor. Know how much it cost? 50 bitcoins. I was rich once you know.'
'Barman would you put another drink on tab? My Satoshis arrive tomorrow.'
The barman points to a sign on the wall: 'Prouhdon's Bar - btc only, no fiat, no credit'
