🪧"Sound money deserves a sound computer" On July 12, 2017 in Washington, during a testimony by Janet Yellen, then Secretary of the United States Treasury...a guy, known as "Bitcoin Sign Guy" (or "Bitcoin Guy"), wrote the story. Yellen was talking about inflation, interest rates and economic strategies. Behind her, Bitcoin Guy held up a sign that read "Buy Bitcoin". The gesture received great media coverage on the internet and beyond, when his identity (Christian Langalis) was discovered, the Bitcoin community gave him 7 $BTC. On July 12, 2017, 1 $BTC was worth about $2,500, in the following weeks a devastating Bull Market started that brought the price over $19,000 (December 2017). The sign with that writing was sold at auction for 16 $BTC (over 1.2M dollars). While central banks continue to print money inflating endlessly and the purchasing power of fiat money erodes day by day, Bitcoin remains the only truly incorruptible alternative.
