An investment 12 months ago would definitely return 2.7 times ones investment
If we compare this with what we can earn with fixed deposit in banks over year, we can clearly see an advantage of holding crypto/bitcoin over fiat.
That's why i am putting whatever cash i have into bitcoin for long term holding, why to help your local banks to make profit with your hard earned money.
As I remember around this time last, the price even touched the $400 level at some point, and if I only held what I bought at those levels, I would have made a lot of profits, tons of it. But then I sold too early, and never really had additional funds to buy some significant amount when the price stayed at the mid $600 range.
