The exact origin of this clip is unclear, but its wording places it squarely in the crypto-meme era, when bitcoin price jokes flooded short-form video. The phrase riffs on street-market haggling — 'how many for a thousand?' — while 'bars' nods to rap slang for a clever lyric, giving the line a double meaning that meme pages love. It circulates mainly as a reaction sound: a quick audio punchline for flexes, price reveals and money jokes, quoted more often than credited.
