Bitcoin is still a great investment but newbies won’t get rich off it any more. They can still build part of a retirement plan with it though. I see $1,000,000 per coin before 2050.


It's hard for me to imagine someone starting to invest in BTC today and planning to do so for the next 20-25 years, hoping that one day the price will reach $1 million. I think a very small percentage of people are ready for something like that, but even they should know that in 25 years the purchasing power of that money will not be anywhere near what it could buy today.

When I look back only 10 years and see what the purchasing power of EUR 100k was and when I compare it with today, I see that many things have become more expensive by over 100%, and on average at least 30%.
