Sure, if we really wanted to go through the calculations, we can also see how much that BTC was worth each year and to see how his income was likely going up too.. even though there would have been some years that his income would have gone down from the previous year, yet his ongoing cashing out 10% per year also resulted in an increased income from the bitcoin each year while his BTC was going up in value faster than he would have had been able to spend it.. so long as he restricted his withdrawals to 10% per year..

Part of the reason that I frequently suggest that guys get to an overaccumulation status prior to starting to withdraw (sell) from their bitcoin stash is that once the more than enough status is reached then it is likely that we can come up with sustainable withdrawal formulas that are able to sustain us perpetually on the amount of BTC that we have accumulated.. we just have to figure out how to moderate it within reasonable parameters.

Of course, it is not guaranteed to pay off either, but we can still attempt to create reasonable parameters, too.


We cannot know the exact range of numbers, yet there should be inspiration for normal people to continue to try their best to continue to ongoingly, persistently, consistently and perhaps aggressively to accumulate bitcoin in order to potentially have more options down the road, and even though the results are not guaranteed, bitcoin's investment thesis still remains strong for the coming 10-20 years or whenever you might be starting to come close to reaching your accumulation (or maybe overaccumulation) goals (that you will likely need to reassess from time to time along the way too)... one of the less advantaged things for folks in their early accumulation is that the BTC's price rising might bring confirmations, but it also ends up costing more per BTC (sat), yet there is no way to really get overly preoccupied beyond just continuing to stack your sats as well you are able to do.


Sure, a person can set his cashout parameters, and it remains a good idea to spend from less valuable sources prior to spending bitcoin, so I was mostly trying to give a kind of flatline idea that was general and not individually particularized.  Another thing that I have found is that it may be better to withdraw the BTC based on a dollar value that is associated with the 200-WMA rather than drawing out a flat BTC amount, yet either system could still end up working for someone who might have had already assessed that he has reached a status of overaccumulation of BTC based on his own circumstances.


Personally, I believe that the BTC holders who have engaged in incremental practices of selling their BTC rather than selling large portions at once have tended to fair better.. especially if they tried to figure out systems in which they were selling small portions of their BTC rather than large portions, and sure even 10% seems a bit much (large), yet I have been tending to show that BTC has been outperforming traditional asset classes in order that larger percentage withdrawals have been sustainable in BTC as compared with traditional investments usually needing to restrict withdrawals to ONLY 4 % or less.. The idea is that the asset needs to outperform the withdrawal rate in order to justify the withdrawal rate that is chosen... otherwise the withdrawal rate is not sustainable.


Since we cannot turn back the clock, we just have to try to figure out our BTC accumulation plan from the present, and if we feel that we don't have enough BTC, we have to continue to accumulate it... and sure your calculations might start to change once you start to reaching a status of having enough BTC or you have the fortune of getting to a status of having more than enough BTC.
