This Bitcoin YTD is as of today, so the $116k not $123k.

I haven't found a clear path of getting out of this standoff, short of some large population reduction event, billionaires giving up their fortunes or developing nations offering cheaper labor.

I heard about a small management company that invested funds in Bitcoin.

I won't hold my breath because rich white billionaires don't go to jail in America, especially not when they are the president.

I don't understand bitcoin so haven't bought any. 

The few that do stick around, most get it=n, see how much work it is, and move on to Bitcoin, selling cruises or become travel agents.

The real real estate billionaires aren't doing that stuff, fyi. 

The peak of this movie is billions for programmers and $120K+ Bitcoin. 

For $35,000 in electricity cost to run the hardware, they were able to mine a bitcoin worth as of today over $110,000.

My advice about the folks that know nothing is for the 97-99% of folks on here; pay down consumer debt, buy your primary house full cash, invest in "passive" stuff like 60% etfs, 10% gold, 30% bitcoin and relax.
