The "Buy Bitcoin" slogan behind Yellen sold for a sky-high price of 16 Bitcoin

Sina Financial News 3 bundles of sticky notes may cost only $8.99 on Amazon, but a sticky note with the phrase "Buy Bitcoin" sold for a whopping $1.027 million at an auction because in 2017, when then-Fed Chair Janet Yellen's congressional testimony was televised, an intern waved the hastily made sign in front of the camera. The slogan quickly became a rallying cry for a small but fast-growing community of encryption developers and investors, and is now also a sign of Crypto Assets' recovery. Since then, the price of Bitcoin has soared from around $2,300 to a record high of nearly $74,000 in March this year. According to Scare City, the auction website that conducted the auction, an anonymous buyer bought the slogan for 16 Bitcoin.
