It seems crazy to us because to us that is a lot of BTC that you could do a lot of things with, however for the purchaser they're simply making a statement - whether that's buying the Bitcoin sign or owning the first sat from the latest halving. So to answer your question, yes I would if I was rich.

However I am not, so my next option is to either start mining and pray I get some great miners fees or make a similar sign myself.

Does owning the first sat after the halving has any significance and would bring me any profit? If the answer is no, then no. I don’t know how rich these people are but they must be since they are so comfortable wasting money around they probably don’t have anything to do with their money anymore.

But maybe I am talking like this because I do not know what it feels like to be rich so every penny to me is valuable and shouldn’t be wasted.

This one is screaming out loud " Only for the rich" and my dear fellow friends, let's believe them.

Maybe this person, I mean the buyer has 100s of Bitcoin who knows? I don't want to believe that someone who has nothing will be willing to throw all their money on this, those people who play around with something like this are always very rich.

Who am I to say that they wasted their money? It is only the spender who can know why they spend so much money on something that may never be worth anything someday.

Either ways they should be fine, if they cab spend 33BTC plus on something like this then they must have more than 300s BTC or more? Just a guess, or maybe they are acting out on a info they got from somewhere, whatever the reason might be, this is for the super rich, we move.

With my own present stage, to hell with any epic sat.

i don't and i won't, because why would i spend a lot of money just to buy unimportant things like that? it's better for me to reinvest my money in bitcoin and hold it for a longer time, compared to having to spend money on things that actually have no benefit.

Even if I belong the super rich, I'd never spend my money buying that epic moment. It might be a piece of history that's also auctioned in other auction houses or what we see on the pawn stars. But, I'd pass on that thing. There's also a probable significance about the runes protocol at this moment but with this start, I guess that we'll start to see some of these auctioned mined block for every halving that we'll get and they'd put that into auction and up for sale. And gone will be the days that we'll just see the halving pass on as if nothing happened. The next halving on 2028 is likely to be a race for who's going to mine the 1,050,000th block.

Insanity indeed! Elites truly reside in some other world where they are willing to cough up millions for crap like this. Personally, I wouldn't think twice about wasting money on such pointless endeavours.

Donating to charities would be a million percent more meaningful in comparison. Bizarre records!

Would I pay 33.3 BTC for that? Nope, simply because I'm not even close to having 33.3 BTC lmao. Am I surprised? Am I against it? Not really. People pay for dumb shit every day from overpriced handbags to unnecessarily expensive NFTs, but to each their own. Free markets innit?

Money laundering might be one way to explain why the person would have done it. Or it can be that someone told them that it was a rate collectible and they would have to spend so much money to get that. The person paid that 33.3BTC in FIAT money and then the person who is misguiding them converted it to BTC to for that the EPIC sat and went their way.

Bizarre indeed, but there seems to be more than what meets the eye. We dont know the other side of the story.

This is purely nonsense. I don't really see a good reason why somebody would buy 1 Satoshi with 33.3 BTC, around $2.1 million for now, much bigger in the near future. I doubt even the greater fool theory would apply here. Would a greater fool buy this same Satoshi in the future with a bigger amount? I don't think so. This particular Satoshi might even be forgotten someday. And there will be 33 halvings all in all. But then there's money laundering that un_rank talks about and all of this suddenly makes sense.
