You are correct that $10k into bitcoin, would have had resulted in at least a million dollars under a variety of scenarios..

We likely would not expect buying BTC at the bottom of the market, yet we could figure the range to be of BTC prices 10 years ago (in 2015) to have had been  between about $225 to $450 per BTC, so best case would have been around 44.44 BTC, and worse case would have had been 22.22 BTC... and so any of those cases would have resulted in at least $1 million valuation of the bitcoin as long as the person had sufficiently and adequately protected such BTC.

Even if a person would have had invested the $10k over two years from January 1, 2015 until December 31, 20016 (that would have had been $100 per week), and would have had resulted in right around 30 BTC.

Definitely, it is true that the difference between having $10k in a regular bank account or investing $10K in Bitcoin in 2011 is quite staggering and it really speaks to the differences cryptocurrency as a store of value can manifest.
It is only Bitcoin that is a store of value, all other cryptocurrencies are just shit coin invented with the intention of milking naive and greedy investor of their hard earned money, so it would be better you are specific when talking about Bitcoin, so that newbies will not start thinking that all this alt and shit coin that are all over the place in the market are reliable, not knowing that they are gambling with their money blindly thinking they are doing the right thing.

Better still is the (DCA) technique whereby you end up investing on a regular basis over a period of say two years instead of circumventing the funds at once.
Accumulating Bitcoin in the space of just two years is too small to achieve a very big stash of Bitcoin, unless your discretionary income is also huge. If someone like a low or average income earner wan to accumulate Bitcoin that can be able to change his financial status forever, he has to accumulate for the minimum of 10 years, then after that period of time he can now decide how long to hold, so  accumulating Bitcoin in the space two years is too small for and average or low coiner earner to accumulate a reasonable stash of Bitcoin that can have a major impact on his finance.
