COTD: $BTC VS. SAVINGS 📊

One of my larger financial regrets (other than throwing out my collection of first edition Pokemon cards)?

Back in early 2018, when I first got into Bitcoin, I had enough savings to buy one whole $BTC…

I considered it briefly, but talked myself out of it as I’d spent the previous month watching it fall from ~$19.5k to ~$7k.

Instead, I bought $500 worth and let the other $6,500 sit in a savings account collecting a measly 2% per year.

So today I’m creating the chart that I wish I had at that time, and putting it out there for anyone that might need it.

This chart compares the percentage returns of a $1,000 dollar investment in $BTC against the average savings account (returning 2% per year) over a 1-5 year period. 👇

Now, I know, I know – while this looks impressive, it’s kind of a given.

Bitcoin outperforms savings accounts, water is wet, and the sky is blue…

But while these results may feel obvious to you – they’re not to everyone. Bitcoin’s volatility has a nasty habit of spooking new investors.

(Take it from the coulda-been whole-coiner.)

Point of this article being – the next time you’ve got a friend or family member talking themselves out of a Bitcoin entry, send ‘em this chart and remind them…

You don’t have to be smart to win in Bitcoin – you just have to be patient.

It may not be a smooth ride up, but time favors Bitcoin above just about any other asset out there.

‘BTC IS DEAD’ = TIME TO BUY ⏰

Ok, that first article is cool and all…

But how do you decide when to buy?

Here’s a left-of-field approach that has (so far) shown insane success over the years:

Every time a big media outlet or pundit pronounces Bitcoin as dead → you buy $100 worth of $BTC.

Sounds weird, but lemme lay out the numbers real quick…

Over the last 15 years, Bitcoin has ‘died’ 440 times:

If you’d bought $100 worth of Bitcoin each time, you would have invested a total of $44,000 over the 15 year period – or an average of $2,933 per year.

...today, that $44k investment would be worth – wait for it – $120,085,574.

Now – are we seriously telling you to track the news headlines and buy every time $BTC is pronounced dead?

No.

A much simpler way to match that ~3k per year average investment would be to set up an automated monthly purchase of $250.

Is it going to net the same returns as the previous 15 years? Doubt it.

But at least you won’t be sidelined with a bank account drip feeding you 2% a year!
