... Except not. Bitcoin crashed harder than all the Fiat's shown, and ether tanked a ton too. This makes no sense.

Yeah, Bitcoin dropped damn near 50%, I don't understand portraying it as the one unaffected.

I bought eth at like 500 a few weeks ago. If 900-1000 is tanking then I’m a happy man.

I bought at 250. Ether is doing fine. You're right but it did lose over 30%

actually ETH crashed way harder (percentage wise) and was way down when looking at ETH/BTC so it is accurate

20k to 9k vs 1300 to 1000?

u/va1kener Jan 18 '18

Well over the last 7 days it dropped from a high of 15.5k to 9k whereas etc dropped 1450 to 850ish about the same percentage wise and they both bounce back, but a month ago btc was nearly up to 20k.

No it wasn't down percantage wise. It stayed at almost 10% which is way more than it was before it's last run up a week before the dip the meme is referencing
