Yes, just like it died in 2011.
January 2011 — January 2012
And in 2012.
September 2012 — September 2013
And in 2014.
September 2013 — September 2015
And now in 2017.
January 2017 — November 2018
It is somewhat funny though how every time bitcoin died, the scale on the Y-axis we use to measure it with goes up by a magnitude or two.
The Bitcoin Thanksgiving Dinner Pitch
The 1 liner
Bitcoin is a currency that is border-less, neutral, censorship resistant, open to all participants and is a trusted network despite having a lack of central governance.
The 1 minute
For the minute pitch, I’m going to use Murad’s pitch from his interview with Pomp (edited for clarity since this was a transcription from a podcast). Source
Bitcoin is the soundest, hardest currency that has ever been invented in the history of human civilization. Its disinflation is second to none. Its monetary policies are known years in advance and it’s becoming increasingly credible. It will also be a growing threat to the very currencies banks and nations control. I think getting in before most other central banks and most other sovereign wealth funds and most other rich people will, in the next decade, prove to be one of the smartest investment decisions in the course of human history.
***You then proceed to whip out the chart below and point to “We are here.”***
The anything longer than 1 minute pitch
The chutzpah on you to think they actually want to hear it.
I’m surprised they keep inviting you to Thanksgiving dinner.
If you really think they care, wait for Hanukkah or Christmas and get them a copy of The Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean Ammous.
