CNN —
Would you like a $2,000 gold bar at Costco with your $4.99 rotisserie chicken?

Yes, Costco sells more than just toilet paper, office supplies and food items, and the company is quite effective at it. A 24-karat 1 oz. Gold Bar PAMP Suisse Lady Fortuna Veriscan was listed as sold out on Costco’s site this week and bars usually sell out hours after being posted on Costco’s website, according to chief financial officer Richard Galanti.

The cryptocurrency market is a whirlwind of excitement and uncertainty, fueled by a fear of missing out (FOMO) and speculation about its future trajectory. Amid this frenzy, one of the most seasoned voices in investment, Warren Buffett, has consistently made clear his stance on the matter: he wants nothing to do with cryptocurrency.
Speaking at Berkshire Hathaway Inc.'s annual shareholder meeting in 2018, Buffett described Bitcoin as "probably rat poison squared," a sentiment reported by CNBC's Becky Quick. Despite the growing acceptance of Bitcoin in the traditional finance sector, Buffett's stance remains unchanged, emphasizing his belief that Bitcoin is not a viable investment.
