But yes, I have outperformed buy and hold with bitcoin by orders of magnitude :-) and this led to a very sizable absolute gain. This is now re-invested into other areas.
So you've experienced a +1,000,000x return but you're not rich?
You should be on the Forbes list
indeed... "by orders of magnitude" = at least 100x better than B&H
so let's say OP just bought 100$ worth of BTC in 2010, that's about 1000BTC at ~0.1$ each
100 * 1000 BTC * 1200 $/BTC = 120 million $ ... yeah that's not rich at all... just moderately wealthy

correction. not orders of magnitudes, but 1.5-2x better than B&H. And also recognize that there were hacks and losses due to MtGox and bitcoinica going down.
