21 BTCNo top, because fiat has no bottom
Updated Random article
In plain words
The idea: prices in dollars keep rising because more dollars keep being printed, while there will only ever be 21 million bitcoin. Knut Svanholm's cousin of the meme, “Everything divided by 21 million” (∞ ÷ 21M), says the same with math.
Origin story
The idea: prices in dollars keep rising because more dollars keep being printed, while there will only ever be 21 million bitcoin. Knut Svanholm's cousin of the meme, “Everything divided by 21 million” (∞ ÷ 21M), says the same with math. A catchy line, not a price forecast.
