This is not a bad thing...
Lets say that Coinbase screws up and loses everyone's bitcoin(no paper bitcoin, real bitcoin). They just gave everyone that holds bitcoin an increase in relative value. They reduced the supply.

But not everyone wants an increase in relative value now. Not everyone has reached their stacking goals. Wanting a pump now is a high time preference.
I have a high time preference for fiat (I want fiat now, so I can buy more bitcoin while it's cheap), but a low time preference for bitcoin's value going up.

Agree. I was hoping it would fall back to 20k. All my money for Bitcoin went to pay taxes, couldn't make it this local low and Swan Bitcoin is upgrading their platform so I couldn't even stack a little :(

Agreed. This is just adoption. Bitcoins are being used in more versatile ways.
