How many Bitcoins do you need to retire with $100,000 a year?

David Pataglia, a cryptocurrency analyst, recently shared a detailed analysis on X. He presented a model that estimates the amount of Bitcoin required to retire with $100,000 annually by considering two key factors.

First, an annual inflation rate of 7% is taken into account, which adjusts for the rising cost of living and the diminishing value of money over time. Second, the model uses a Bitcoin price model based on regression power in the fifth decile. This provides a conservative estimate of the future value of Bitcoin.

The data shows that the amount of BTC required for retirement is affected by the year in which retirement begins and the individual's age. The earlier the retirement date, the more BTC is needed.

For example, a 35-year-old planning to retire in 2030 will need about 4.41 BTC ($460,000 at current prices).

"This means that the price of Bitcoin in 2030 will be high enough for 4 BTC to allow you, when invested or gradually spent, to save $100,000 annually," said Pataglia...
