Investing one thousand dollars in Bitcoin in 2015 is worth today 385 thousand $ , while investing it in Amazon is worth 14.5 thousand.

Have you ever imagined that a simple investment decision could change your entire life? This is exactly what would have happened if you had invested one thousand dollars in the cryptocurrency Bitcoin instead of Amazon stocks in 2015.

At that time, the price of Bitcoin was around 315 dollars, which means that the one thousand dollars would have bought you 3.17 Bitcoin. Meanwhile, the price of Amazon stock was around 309 dollars, so you would have only received 3.24 shares.

Now, in 2025, if you had invested in Bitcoin, that one thousand dollars would have turned into 385 thousand dollars, which is an increase equal to 385 times the original capital. While investing one thousand dollars in Amazon did not exceed 14.5 thousand dollars, which is only about 14.5 times.

Even in terms of market value, Bitcoin has outperformed. Its market value has now reached 2.442 trillion dollars, surpassing Amazon which is valued at 2.388 trillion dollars.
