Dell received 85 #bitcoin (~$50k USD) for servers in 2014.
Today, those 85 bitcoin are worth ~$5.5 MILLION.
A purchase that cost 85 bitcoin in 2014 costs less than ONE bitcoin 10 years later.
With Bitcoin, your money buys MORE over time.
With fiat, your money buys less.
Don't overthink it.
Dell blog post from a decade ago announcing the company would accept #Bitcoin, even offering 10% off a new Alienware system purchase when checking out with bitcoin.
Does this discount make Dell the first "Bitcoin Preferred" company?
The real question is... did they hodl?
