Oh hellyeah. Bitcoin's back, baby.

Well, skyrocketed past $7,000, anyway.

Yes, friends, it's time to join the hordes of true believers on Twitter and Reddit in celebration. And while you're at it, you definitely want to ignore the fact that last December, bitcoin briefly hit $19,000, which means that the current price is less than half of that. But you're not going to let a little thing like context get in the way of your fun, right?

Right. Let's start things off with r/Bitcoin, which celebrated the destruction of the so-called "7k wall."

Meanwhile, presidential candidate John "I'll eat my own dick on TV if Bitcoin doesn't hit $1,000,000 by 2020" McAfee has been surprisingly quiet about this rally, but we should expect celebratory comments from him any time now.

Of course, those meddlesome nocoiners are trying to rain all over this cryptocurrency parade.
