Topic: Bitcoin parity: what is a bitcoin worth? - page 3. (Read 10325 times)
Bitcoin is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. The same as everything else.
I would trade one bitcoin for:
Why? Cause I can always buy more at a similar price. I want to buy everything in btc!
- A box of See's chocolates.
- A 24 pack of beer.
- A pair of cheap shoes.
- Dinner at a midrange chain restaurant.
- A game of mini golf for 2.
- A round of paintball for 2.
- A tour of some tourist destination for 2.
- 3 or 4 1940's-60's silver quarters.
- 3 or 4 dozen eggs.
- 3 or 4 months of web hosting.
- ~4 gallons of gas.
- 2 hours of my labour.

At this moment 1 BTC = 14€ = 2 junk silver italian coins like this (weight: 11.00 grams, purity: 835‰ = 9.19 grams of pure silver each. They are very nice):
For 1 BTC I would buy 11 litres of petrol.
I am from saudi arabia. Thats by today's prices a shameful exchange that you are quite losing!
It would be fun to see an historical chart with Bitcoin vs real things rather than just other money.
A while ago somebody posted a thread with graphs of BTC vs XAU prices. I suppose there is some metric they use for inflation, a sort of basket of commodities that you could chart?

Today I went to the barber shop and got a haircut for me and my son for about the same price as one bitcoin.

Yesterday I took my family of five out to dinner at Taco Bell, we spent about the same mount as it costs to get one bitcoin now.
just under three units of "tree fiddy"
Today 1 bitcoin can be traded for a slip of paper that says $10 on it.
Hey look, the bitcoin and the green paper can trade freely again!

I would pay one bitcoin for a nice steak dinner.
Eh.. I would pay that much for a pizza. It's so much better than steak anyways
You must not have had a good steak before.
I guess it depends on the size of the steak and the size of the pizza?
Whereas befoe you could get a nice steak dinner for a bitcoin, now you could only get a mediocre steak dinner. You might be able to squeeze two Little Ceasar's Hot'n'Ready pizzas out of a bitcoin if you are lucky.

It would be nice to have silver parity. But now it looks more like from 10 to 1$

I know it is not exactly 1 bitcoin, but I thought I would point out that at the site http://bitcoin-hosting.com/?page_id=4 you can get 1 year of webhosting for 1.5 bitcoin. So I guess going with the theme of the thread, you can get 8 months of webhosting for 1 bitcoin.
This site is setting their price in bitcoin, and it is a great deal.

For a true side by side comparison, why not compare the electricity costs to generate each?
You can plant the plant outside, then it requires no electricity. It is hard to do that with bitcoins. (Although, there is an "environmentally conscious mining" thread talking about that too.)
True, but a lot is still grown indoors using electrical power so I think it could be an interesting comparison anyway.
Don't forget fertilizer cost, recurring equipment cost (bulbs, etc). I think mining is more profitable overall...especially due to risk. Very similar in power usage and initial equipment cost though.
An ounce of gold.
I'll pay you a bitcoin for an ounce of gold.
