If I invest $50 in Bitcoin today at $118,665/BTC, and Bitcoin grows the same percentage as it did from 2010 until now, how much would that $50 become?

Historical growth %

From $0.003 → $118,665:

0.003 = 39,555,000

That’s +3,955,500,000% growth.

Apply the same growth to $50 today.

If BTC repeats that same growth:

Future value = 50 \times 39,555,000

= 1,977,750,000

So, the $50 today would also become ~$1.978 billion.

Reality check

This is mathematically correct but in reality, such growth is extremely unlikely now because:

Early $BTC rose from almost zero value (high risk, unknown tech).

Today BTC is a mature $2+ trillion market, so repeating that growth would require a market cap larger than the entire global economy many times over. But nothing is impossible.
