What about those who want to take profit in bitcoins?

---

At the nadir of the November 2018 bear mauling, I was so stonily ignoring the market that I didn’t even know how bad the crash was until someone in my personal life, who does not know that I have any Bitcoin,^* casually mentioned to me some headline news so that we could share some sneers at all those idiots with their Internet money.

* Privacy!

So, why would I pay attention now?  Sell!? Spend bitcoins to buy toilet paper!?  LOL.  I just checked the ticker, and the Bitcoin price has not changed at all!  1 BTC is still worth 1 BTC.  I can check fifty times per day, or per hour, or per minute—it still says, 1 BTC!

• Bear market:  Shrug.  Sigh.  OK, I will try to eat less for awhile—because spending hurts.
• Bull market:  Shrug.  Smile.  OK, prices are lower now!  Wow, my expenses are getting so much cheaper...
