Electronics Honey Baklava Bullion Some guy a while ago bought a pizza for 10,000 BTC( Worth 5million+ now), even though it was worth about $40 then. Lawl.
They weren't worth anything at the time (early 2010.) That's the very first recorded Bitcoin purchase, and it basically set the initial price for a bitcoin at $0.002 each. Quite a steal in hindsight. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=137.0 |

A $5,280 gaming computer. Every single part paid for in BTC.
That's top dollar for a gaming rig. Every single part...You are saying the parts cost that much and you built it yourself? Sound like a wild time... |

Most people in the U.S. with "off the book" gains rarely do that. It'd be like paying sales tax on your yard sale profits. Now, if someone bought a yacht.... |

I commissioned a digital painting from a guy around the end of 2012, I believe, for BTC3. At the time, Bitcoin was around $30, I believe.
At today's rate, I paid $1,751.31 for that painting. And I don't regret it at all. It's fantastic to see how far BitCoin has come in just over a year.
I still have that painting on my computer. At some point I'd like to get it made into a framed poster for my office wall. It'd be a good story, I think, to bring up the success of BitCoin from when I was first introduced to it.

I traveled back in time and used my Bitcoin to buy slaves, then I traveled forward in time to the nightmare world of the future and forced those slaves to build me a time machine so I could travel back in time.

Just yesterday I got some domains, a year VPN subscription and some website hosting.
Its great to see some of the longer term websites accepting Bitcoin actually sticking around as quiet a few have fallen for one reason or another so it just shows the ones that are still around are run by developers with conviction and passion for what they do.
