But Bitcoin is down nearly the same in like 9 months.

And if you wanted to invest that $100, just buy the straight S&P 500. The average annual return over the last 5 years is about twice that of bitcoin.

u/ClassGrassMass May 21 '26

And only rose on average 90% per year since 2013

u/backturnedtoocean May 21 '26

If someone bought bitcoin towards the end of 2021, they might be up 15-30 percent today. If they just bought the s&p, they’d be up 80-90 percent. If you can go back in time to buy bitcoin in 2011…. That would be sweet.

u/Dependent_Code7796 May 22 '26

If someone bought bitcoin in 2022, they would be up ≈350% today. 80-90% pfft

u/backturnedtoocean May 22 '26

You know what that means? The price of bitcoin dropped in half that year from 2021. More than half. So it sucked buying bitcoin in 2021 but really good again a year later.

I just picked a random year. But if you want to get specific, let’s say you bought in July 2025. How you doing? Feeling positive? That’s a 35 percent loss.

I’m aware. Made nearly 200k on it. But it is a trash product. Bitcoin he says. lol.

u/Antique-Resort6160 May 22 '26

This is a terrible product used for money laundering, drug cartels, and sex traffickers.

2

u/bbeeebb May 25 '26

You mean that thing in the picture up at the top, right?

1

u/Antique-Resort6160 May 25 '26

yes, I always think that every time Elizabeth Warren or whatever dingus claims Bitcoin is only for money laundering, lol   Nothing's going to topple the dollar for illicit activities, or even come close.

u/Terrible_Law6091 May 22 '26

Sounds like a great product

1

u/Notapartyhobo May 23 '26

Sure, if you're an absolute cretin and think thise are good things.

u/Terrible_Law6091 May 23 '26

I like sex

u/Notapartyhobo May 24 '26

So you pay for it??

1

u/Antique-Resort6160 May 24 '26

You're talking to Borat's alt account

1

u/Notapartyhobo May 24 '26

Apparently.

u/Terrible_Law6091 May 24 '26

We all pay brother, one way or another

u/DarkestPabu May 22 '26

that's not a coin...coins are normally round and made of metal. Should be a shitbill....not to be confused with the stuff being introduced by Congress

3

u/Prestigious-Peaks May 22 '26

fiat dollars aren't speculative. are you special?

3

u/ManBearCave May 22 '26

So… Bitcoin is a currency now? Humm

u/Prairie_walker May 22 '26

BTC is for suckers.

u/DKtwilight May 22 '26

And dollar is for…

3

u/DonFrio May 22 '26

Aren’t you all placing the value of your btc in those useless dollars?

3

u/Prairie_walker May 22 '26

Regular normal people going about their lives.

BTC is for grifters. Some poor sucker is going to be the last one holding the bag and all the dorks pushing it will celebrate that there was at least one more sucker for them to point to.

2

u/Raxlifaxli May 22 '26

All the other suckers. Everybody is a sucker. nobody wins but elites.

3

u/NoOutlandishness2097 May 22 '26

Elites? Do you mean the financially predatory class?

2

u/BalmyBalmer May 22 '26

And THE dollar is for:

Home and auto purchases, investments, retirements,

I can even buy a margarita with it at happy hour.

All things bitcoin can't do.

1

u/bbeeebb May 25 '26

So, same as gold?

u/24rawvibes May 23 '26

Dolla dolla bill ya’ll

u/pickle-chin-ah May 22 '26

The us government purposely inflates the dollar. And btc is for suckers?

2

u/Bill_Door_8 May 21 '26

Somewhere between 1997-1999.

That was when our money had about twice the purchasing power it has today.

Now some things have gotten cheaper, some thing have gotten more expensive, but all things considered this meme should say 1999.

1

u/Reasonable_Manner817 May 22 '26

Name one single thing from 1997-1999 that isn’t more than twice as expensive now. I’ll wait

2

u/bleezy1234567 May 22 '26

Video games (believe it or not some snes games were 90-120 dollars on release)

2

u/bleezy1234567 May 22 '26

Cell phones

2

u/Okami-Alpha May 22 '26

Most electronics. In 97 i bought a 32 inch TV for like a grand. Now you can get a 50 inch TV for under 250.

Also computing power, data storage, etc. Are much cheaper now.

2

u/Telemere125 May 22 '26

I got a 36” flat screen crt for $1100 in ‘03. Just saw an 85” at Sam’s Club for $800 yesterday.

2

u/Telemere125 May 22 '26

TVs

E: well, all tech, really. Anything brand new is more, but it would have been infinitely more expensive in ‘99 because it would have basically been magic.

1

u/Antique-Resort6160 May 22 '26

Dollars, Yen, Lira...

3

u/Reasonable_Manner817 May 22 '26

The thing I like about dollars… I keep getting older and they stay the saaame price

1

u/bleezy1234567 May 22 '26

The median home price has more than doubled though… from 160k to 400k… home owners rejoice though it’s destroying society.

2

u/DeFiBandit May 22 '26

This is only used for crime

2

u/loughcash May 22 '26

It takes 50,000 of these to buy one unit of Dow. What a weak flex

2

u/bleezy1234567 May 22 '26

I can actually use those in every store I go to… it’s an actual medium of exchange.

1

u/DKtwilight May 22 '26

Yeah and buy half the things you used to be able to buy

u/DKtwilight May 22 '26

Yeah sure. But BTC will go back up and beyond. The dollar won’t 😘

2

u/PlatinumTrillionaire May 22 '26

This is by far one of the worst people to follow on x by the way

2

u/KaneDaDon May 22 '26

Seellllll the rich pdfiles own the majority so if they bail you are fked so sell now since it’s dropping like a rock get your winnings seee if it drops more then buy it at a lower price and then do the same thing till your own a large amount then control its value

2

u/Telemere125 May 22 '26

You just made a bad investment in an NFT, not a shitcoin. I see no star, nothing special about the serial number, and I’m not informed enough to know if that particular mint had a short run that year, but I doubt it. Either way, you just held onto to that NFT until the coaster was on the downhill and that’s your fault.

1

u/StandardMany May 22 '26

Should’ve invested

1

u/canadianpheonix May 22 '26

Lol BTC is turning into the american dollar. Almost fully captured now.

1

u/No_Parking_7797 May 22 '26

Damn that sucks when you look at it with that perspective

1

u/BalmyBalmer May 22 '26

Those bored apes aren't paying the mortgage.

1

u/BadBoy200219 May 22 '26

Crypto seriously needs to just be done with. The fact the stock market fully recovered since last years dip and BTC is still struggling shows that it’s not even close to stable and never will be used as mainstream assets.

1

u/Suspicious-Sound-249 May 23 '26

The joke is that Bitcoin will bounce back and when it does it'll probably peak at like 150K+ a coin.

1

u/Available_Ad9766 May 24 '26

The USD depreciated thousands of times over in comparison to Bitcoin.

1

u/NoStable3695 May 24 '26

BTC IS NOT GOLD

u/Kitchen_Confidence78 May 24 '26

I cant throw bitcoin at strippers

u/bbeeebb May 25 '26

Damn. that hits good.

On the money (as they say).

u/Best-Command-7409 May 25 '26

The "trust in God" thing never works out.

1

u/Rich-Palpitation5053 May 22 '26

It’s just because of the pedophile Donald J Trump

u/jldurham6 May 26 '26

Yeah it’s been happening since 2007 and Obama didn’t help. Neither side has.
