Having bought some BTC at lower prices, talking about BTC prices is something really exciting for me since it means money, but I think that mBTC rates is better, because I keep hearing more and more people saying or thinking that they can't afford BTC anymore now it's over $1000.

Talking about buying a few mBTC for ~$1 each sounds way more attractive than buying 0.001 BTC, which feels like buying something worthless.

So I think it's a good thing for BTC to continue to become more mainstream!

"I'm not going to buy any BTC because it's $1000."

Probably means: "The market price is above what I believe it should be."

Not: "$1000 is too much money for me to spend."

Don't underestimate the general public's misunderstanding of bitcoin...
