If you’re going to rip top Reddit content, at least update the passage of time. That was an obvious tell of repost bots.
10 years ago would have been 2014; at that point 25 Bitcoin would be a good chunk of cash:
The price of bitcoin opened the year at $770, according to the CoinDesk Price Index. By mid-December, it was trading in the mid-$300 range. This represents a drop of more than 50% from the start of the year.
It’d be interesting to know when this was actually from; it’s a great screenshot even without the exact details, though.
Blasphemy.
10 years ago will forever be 1995.
I will die on this hill.
Agreed.
Completely unrelated: pretty crazy that a starcraft tournament was held 3 years before it released, and the prize was something that wasn’t available until 14 years after the tourny.
Is it because the hill is steep and your ankles aren’t what they used to be?
Get off my lawn.
You’ll die from old age on that hill, kiddo.
More like 25 years ago. here a list of prize pools, the earliest is 2006 with well over 100’000 $.
Oh nice, great find!
It would be funny if there was a competition where the highest prize would not be the first place. Like everyone would try to be 3rd, by being good enough to to not be too bad but bad enough to not be 1st or 2nd
Game Changer on Dropout did that recently. Second best out of three players would earn the points.
Except ten years ago was three years ago which was thirteen years ago. In 2011 the price was around $0.30 to $.40 cents a bitcoin.
That must have been around 2010, maybe early 2011. Later in 2011, btc was already at over 10 dollars each, which would have made the last places worth more than second place.
I’m gonna need some proof for that one, chief.
Sure wish I would have placed 8th. That’s a $1671936.50 price as of right this second. It will have changed by the time I hit send.
