The Thesis

As Bitcoin's price rises,
the goalposts keep moving.

When this archive began in 2023, most of the milestone posts were about reaching 1 BTC. Since then, 0.1 BTC has become the second most-celebrated goal in the dataset and is closing in on the whole coin, and 0.01 BTC posts have started to appear. As the price climbs, more people set their goals in fractions of a coin.

This isn't discouragement. It's hyperbitcoinization in real time. More people are entering the Bitcoin ecosystem at every price level, setting goals appropriate to their means, and celebrating when they reach them. The goalposts moved. People are still scoring.

It isn't a straight line. Big whole-coin posts keep arriving alongside the small ones, and the typical milestone rises and falls from year to year. The numbers below come straight from the data, noise and all. Whether the long-run trend bends down is exactly what this project is watching.

GoalPost BTC documents this from the ground level: not price charts or on-chain data, but human moments. Real people, real goals, real celebrations.
