I would like to ask if in your country BTC has reached the old ATH or even the new ATH at the current price if using your local currency?
Yes, here in Nigeria and using our local currency which is the naira, bitcoin has far gone above the previous all time high of 2021, and this also means that, we now have a new all time high of bitcoin in our local currency.
During the 2021 bull run when bitcoin made the all time high of $69,000, naira to a dollar was around #350 to #400, and back them bitcoin at $69,000 was around 20 million naira to 30 million naira, but today and right now as I type this comment, bitcoin is $66,700 and the worth in our local currency (naira) right now is 105 million naira, and this is because currently, naira to a dollar is currently around #1600 , this is x4 to x6 increase from the 2021 value of between #300 and #400 naira per dollar, this is to say that, in a space of 2 to 3 years, our local currency have lost x4 to x6 of its value against the US dollar and other fiat currencies like the British pounds and euro.
This is very disappointing and heart breaking to say the least, there is a lot of hunger and hardship in Nigeria this day, everything have more than tripled their prices from 2021 till today, this has indeed proven that saving money in fiat is one of the worst decisions anybody can make, most especially for those of us living in countries like Nigeria.
With how high the price of bitcoin is right now, a lot of the world has that right now, from Russia to China to India, which would be like half of the world right there anyway, or close to it. So Nigeria having it is not a news, because it is like that for many nations, soon enough I am sure it will be like that for every single nation. I think the trick here is that what have we gained from it? Because, if the purchasing power is the same then it doesn't mean you made a profit.
If you had 100 amount in your fiat that can buy X and now you have 150 which can still buy X, that means you didn't get any richer. So, the question here should be have you gotten any richer? If you have, then that's good, if you haven't then it doesn't mean anything.
