Bitcoin is having a good year. On January 2, the cryptocurrency first reached a value of $ 1,000, on December 7, the price per coin had risen to nearly $ 17,000.
Rising prices (and the ensuing cryptocurrency frenzy) has led many people to invest in Bitcoin as well.
The hype surrounding the currency has also spurred users to set a clear benchmark for ownership of Bitcoin - with only 21 million Bitcoins ever in circulation: the exclusive "21 Million Club".
Members of this club own at least one Bitcoin. They are part of a special group that accounts for just 0.3 percent of the world's population (because some investors own hundreds or even thousands of bitcoins).
In a Reddit/Bitcoin, users share their stories of how they made it into the 21 million club, how they're going to get it in, or how much they regret not investing earlier than their budget would have allowed.
Some Reddit users complain about not getting in earlier. Now they are forced to buy only small fragments of a coin - for sums that would have given them a whole coin or more just a year ago.
Formally, this club does not exist. The membership is purely symbolic. But for those who have taken a small slice of the cake of the gigantic Bitcoin fortune, this demarcation is a reason to be proud.
