Bitcoin RIP: Cryptocurrency ‘Dies’ 200th Time, Just As Price Hits $11k

Bitcoin is paradoxically becoming more valuable the more it dies, with over 200 ‘obituaries’ now public.

The bizarre status quo comes from information portal 99Bitcoins, which also tracks press articles declaring Bitcoin will shortly disappear.

On Dec. 1, as Bitcoin prices hovered at just over $10,000, the site’s ‘Bitcoin obituary stats’ formally recorded the 200th Bitcoin death.
