Now, with Bitcoin staggering over the $107,000 line like a cowboy after too many cheap whiskeys, people sit and argue about crossroads and fateful moments.

Metaplanet, a daring Japanese company (because why not?), declared an audacious quest to amass a staggering $5.4 billion worth of Bitcoin by the end of 2027. Already, in a single day, they snatched up $517 million, like ravenous wolves at the market. The hunger is real, dear reader. 🍣

Someone took to the bank’s online help desk and asked, straight out, “Say now, can I buy one of them newfangled cryptocurrencies with my Barclaycard?” To which the bank gave a reply colder than a January pond: “Nope, not a chance. Go fish.”
