If an investor poured $100 into Bitcoin back when it was trading at around 10 cents in 2010, they would have a total of 1,000 BTC. At its current price, a total of 1,000 Bitcoins would be worth around $63,025,480. This is the case if the asset was purchased and held over the last decade.
It should be noted that Bitcoin has been touted as one of the best-performing assets of the last decade. BTC has surged by 129838054.45% since 2010. At the asset’s current price level, a staggering 88% of its holders were at a profit. Only 7% of BTC holders were not making money at its present price level. If the asset continues to surge, BTC will put almost all its holders at a profit.
