Bitcoin (BTC), the world’s largest cryptocurrency has been trying to reach the coveted $100,000 mark for a while now. But it seems like several hurdles stand before the king coin. More recently, after surging all the way to a high of $99,655.50 Bitcoin dipped to a low of $91,094. This came as a shock to the market. But it is worth highlighting how much the asset has grown over the past decade.

Bitcoin’s Current Scenario
After surging by more than 2% over the past 24 hours, BTC was trading at $95,242.61, during press time. The asset has grown by over 33% throughout the last month. This further put a staggering 98% of Bitcoin investors at a profit. A dainty 1% of the king coin holders were not making any money at its current price.
This drop was related to increased selling activity. The majority of the selling “is coming from 2024 buyers who bought above 56k,” Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz recently said. “Normal profit-taking.“
Despite its struggle to reach the $100,000 mark, Bitcoin has witnessed major growth over the years. Since the time of its origin, BTC has surged by 154037090.70%. About seven years ago, the king coin hit $10,000 for the first time. Looking back in time, how much would a $100 investment in the BTC be worth today?
