From Redditor Apprehensive_Shoe_86, a brilliant summation of why the Keisers of the world have fled to non-taxation areas to dump their BTC for real estate and lambos: “IF I PUT $100 IN BITCOIN IN 2010 I’D HAVE $2.8B NOW.” No. If you bought $100 of Bitcoin in 2010 and watched it go to: $1k → $100k → $1.7M and did nothing Then watched $1.7M go to $170k and still did nothing Then watched $170k go to $110M and still did nothing Then watched $110M wither to $18M and still did nothing Then watched $18M surge to $390M and still did nothing Then watched $390M deteriorate to $85M Then watched $85M climb to $1.6B and still did nothing Then watched $1.6B shrink to $390M and still did nothing Then watched $390M surge to $2.8B and then for some reason finally decided to do something… Then yes, $100 in 2010 would be worth $2.8B today. image
For the record: The whole point of Wealth - THE WHOLE POINT - is to progressively separate yourself from all the other human beings who make you uncomfortable. Even Bitcoin OG’s will do the same. It’s the whole scorpion on the frog parable. Bill Gate’s was “new money” once. Stay humble is not just a brand(TM).
There will only ever be 21,000,000 - My Bitcoin. image
