When I am writing the post, Bitcoin is trading at $108K. If we go back 15 years, Bitcoin had been trading at $0.01 on July 4. If you compare the price difference, then it's more than 1B%. That means from the 4th of July till today, the Bitcoin price has risen more than 100%. Who had dreamed the price would go this high in 2010? This was really unimaginable—a 1,078,000,000% increase in 15 years back. This is a reminder of what the price of Bitcoin would be after the next 15 years. Especially a reminder for those who still don't believe in Bitcoin power.
No, this is not a reminder of what the price of Bitcoin will be in the next 15 years because you should have a look at Bitcoin's market cap at first. In 2010, how many people knew Bitcoin? Only a few people and the marketcap of the coin was nothing. But 15 years later, millions of people (or billions) know Bitcoin and it's market cap is 2.27 trillion US dollars. There is no way for Bitcoin to grow from 100K to that levels in the next 15 years because the market cap is already saturated. Gold's market cup is 22.4 trillion US dollars. If Bitcoin reaches Gold's market cap in the next 15 years, it will cost one million dollar per coin, which means 1000% rise but I doubt that will happen in the next 15 years, but who knows?
Whoever intends to hold longer, it would inspire them how the Bitcoin price has been growing from the beginning till today. Sometimes I regret why I hadn't bought a lot of Bitcoin during that time, even though I had a lot of money to buy. Maybe some people will regret in the future why they didn't buy Bitcoin today. I found Bitcoin when it was trading below $3K.
What was the price your first purchased Bitcoin?
Let's share your experience. For me, I can't exactly remember, but it was between $2700 and $2800.
Holding is still a good option because Bitcoin has a bright future and it has a space for development. It's an amazing stable and secure currency with a steady growth.
I bought my first Bitcoins around 20K USD.
