Cryptographics | Hundreds of Times the Media Declared Bitcoin Dead, Yet It Surged 115 Million Percent
#bitcoin (BTC) has once again become the center of attention after data showed that this crypto asset has been declared "dead" 446 times by mainstream media and financial analysts throughout its history.
However, the reality was completely different, as Bitcoin continued to grow, reaching hundreds of millions of percent since its inception.
Crypto analyst Lark Davis highlighted this irony in a post on X, stating that if someone had invested $100 every time Bitcoin was reported as "dead," their investment would now exceed $115 million.
According to the shared price development chart, Bitcoin has continued to rise over time despite ongoing public skepticism. From 2012 to 2025, the chart shows significant and sustained price surges, even reaching six-figure numbers in recent years.
The latest data as of November 2, 2025, indicates that claims of Bitcoin's "death" were not only wrong but also serve as a reminder that volatility is not the end of the journey for this digital asset. In fact, what was once considered high-risk has now become one of the most profitable investments of the past decade.
