A major piece of news has emerged from the tech world today: the new iPhone 17 has officially been launched. This news has prompted us to reflect on the changes in the value of tech products and Digital Money.



Looking back at history, we find a set of astonishing data: In 2010, purchasing an iPhone 4 required 2842 bitcoins. Today, you only need 0.007 bitcoins to acquire the latest iPhone 17. This incredible comparison not only showcases the surge in bitcoin's value but also reflects the level of popularity of technological products.

Looking at the price relationship between the iPhone series and Bitcoin, we can clearly see a downward trend:

In 2011, the price of the iPhone 4s was equivalent to 162 Bitcoins.
In 2012, the iPhone 5 dropped to 52 bitcoins;
In 2013, the iPhone 5s further dropped to 5.04 bitcoins;
In 2014, the iPhone 6 only required 1.65 bitcoins;
In 2015, the iPhone 6s saw a slight increase, requiring 2.76 bitcoins.
In 2016, the iPhone 7 dropped to 1.07 Bitcoin;
2017 was a turning point, the iPhone 8 and iPhone X only required 0.19 and 0.13 bitcoins respectively;
From 2018 to 2024, the Bitcoin price of the iPhone series fluctuated continuously between 0.15 and 0.014.

This set of data not only reflects the sharp rise in Bitcoin's value but also showcases the relative value changes of technology products. It reveals an interesting phenomenon in the era of the digital economy: the value relationship between traditional technology products and emerging digital assets is constantly being reshaped.

It is worth mentioning that the new iPhone 17 has launched an orange version, which coincidentally corresponds with the color of the Bitcoin logo, and this coincidence seems to hint at some connection between the technology and the world of cryptocurrencies.

This phenomenon has prompted us to think about the future: as Digital Money continues to develop and technological products keep innovating, how will their value relationship evolve? This is not only an insight for investors but also a forecast of the development trends in the entire technology and finance industries.
