If you had invested $100 in Ethereum (ETH) at the beginning of 2017, here are the approximate estimates for the results of this investment until September 2, 2025:
📌 Price of Ethereum at the beginning of 2017
On January 1, 2017, the price of ETH was around $8.
🧮 Amount of Ethereum purchased
With an investment of $100 at a price of $8, you would have acquired approximately 12.5 ETH.
💰 Its value today (September 2, 2025)
Today, the price of ETH ranges between approximately $4,350 – $4,400.
For example, using $4,372 for the current price:
The value of 12.5 ETH = 12.5 × $4,372 ≈ $54,650.
📊 Summary of approximate profit

🧭 Notes
This calculation does not take into account fees, taxes, or price differences between platforms.
The worst-case scenario that occurred (such as the "flash crash" in June 2017) was momentary and did not affect the long-term buy-and-hold strategy.
Comparison to 2017: the price rose from ~ $7 to ~ $723–820 during the year, reflecting massive growth even before reaching the current profit levels.
✅ Conclusion
If you had invested $100 at the beginning of 2017 and held it until today, you would now have around $54,000 — a net profit of approximately $54,000.
