Dogecoin co-founder reacts to Bitcoin regaining $100,000
On Jan. 6, the world’s leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin jumped by 3.75%, recapturing the $100,000 level and reaching $102,500 as MicroStrategy company spearheaded by BTC evangelist Michael Saylor announced a mammoth purchase of 1,070 Bitcoins, paying $101 million for that crypto batch.Dogecoin creator Billy Markus, who is known on social media as Shibetoshi Nakamoto, reacted to that bullish news in his traditional jesting manner, using memes and highlighting Bitcoin’s price surge above the crucial $100,000 level. In the middle of December, BTC scored a historic peak above $108,000 and had been trading below $100,000 since then, regaining its losses partly now with yesterday’s price surge.
While Markus has several times revealed that he holds Bitcoin (0.006 BTC), he does not rely any hopes of becoming a millionaire with it. In his numerous tweets, he has many times expressed a skeptical attitude toward crypto as an investment tool, claiming that nobody really knows why Bitcoin goes up or down and hinting that quitting one’s daily job betting on crypto is not the best idea.
