Today is day 365 of my $5/day experiment
Hi everyone,
I see posts all the time of people saying ‘Is it worth buying BTC if I can only spent X amount a day/week/month. I decided to put it to the test and set up automatic purchases through Strike app of $5/day. I tracked it all separately from my original portfolio. My goal is to make it to 1000 days. Here is my current data for 365 days!
Day 365
Total Stack: 0.07569918
Average Price: $24,108.58
Current Price: $34,158.20
Total Spent: $1,825.00
Current Value: $2,585.75
Net Change: +41.68%
Highest Purchase Price to Date: $34,999.30
Lowest Purchase Price to Date: $16,115.52
All of my purchases include the 0.5-1.0% spread that I have to pay. I have turned what is most people’s daily Starbucks into a small portfolio of 7.5 million sats or ~$2,500 at current value. So to answer everyone’s question. YES. It is absolutely worth it to buy Bitcoin even if you can only contribute minute amounts.

151200, the amount of BTC that will be mined till the next halving.
Just an interesting thought :
With 180 days left, till the 4th halving on 24 April 2024, there's only 162106 BTC left to be mined, till said date.
The fifth Bitcoin halving is expected to happen around 2028 when 1,050,000 blocks are mined, i.e., 98.4375% of the whole BTCs.
After the 5th halving, the rate of new Bitcoin creation will be significantly slower.
This would potentially increase the perception of Bitcoin as "digital gold" due to its scarcity, which will attract more long-term investors.
Bitcoin will have been in existence for almost 20 years. As it matures, it will become more integrated into the global financial system, leading to increased stability.
I think the future looks bright.
Stack Sats, Stay Strong, Secure Your Future with BTC.
To the moon, one Satoshi at a time ! 🚀🌕
Edit : 162106 BTC to be mined till halving.

Every pizza you buy is the most expensive pizza in history, regardless of the money you use
We've all heard about the two pizzas that were bought with 10k bitcoin, and how they were the most expensive pizzas ever purchased. The conclusion one seems to reasonably reach is that this guy lost millions in a poor decision, and that you should therefore never spend your bitcoin. Therefore, some argue, bitcoin would never really become a medium of exchange since no reasonable person would subject themselves to such lost opportunity cost.
But every purchase you make that doesn't buy bitcoin has cost you just as much. Back in 2010 the two pizzas you bought with US dollars cost you just as much as that man, because you bought pizzas instead of buying bitcoin and storing it long term. We may jokingly chastise that transaction, but everyone has made a similarly impactful financial decision, they just don't realize it. Today, everything you buy that isn't bitcoin is costing the future you as much money as anyone spending bitcoin today.
The reality is that everyone needs to spend money, be it to survive or to enjoy life. Whether you spend in US dollars or bitcoin is inconsequential.
So have peace of mind: go and buy bitcoin. Go and spend bitcoin. And replace the spent bitcoin next time you can. It's all the same.
Just don't store long term money in fiat and you'll be fine.

Running a Bitcoin Node is so easy.
I have seen again and again posts spreading FUD "but government can shut it down", "what secures Bitcoin network being available" etc.
The bitcoin network is based on Nodes that have a copy of the blockchain and verifying transactions.
It is super easy to setup and run a Bitcoin Node on your PC. Go to Bitcoin dot Org and download the software.
For Windows it comes with an installer also. Installed in minutes. Here we are, you have your own Node and you are securing the Bitcoin network yourself.
You don't need to run in permanently. Just let it run in the background whenever you want.
Yes, it consumes CPU power and more relevant for the one or other it communicates a lot with the other Nodes in the internet. If you have a unlimited internet connection you do not have any problems are extra costs. You can also limit the network usage within the settings.
As long as a few people running Nodes Bitcoin can not be shut down.
If you want to help your Bitcoin being independent, run your own Node.

What makes you so confident that Bitcoin will grow and persist in the long term?
There are external influences that can be influenced by people and weaken the system. The biggest threat, in my opinion, lies in the general financial system and its powers.
Bitcoin and blockchain, through their decentralization, take power away from organizations and institutions. Since financial powers have significant influence, a possible scenario could be that Bitcoin is no longer recognized as a form of payment. Or, as we're seeing now with BlackRock, Bitcoin may not be accepted as an asset (yet), which could lead to a decrease or absence of value appreciation.
I look forward to your assessment.

People hate what they do not understand...
People hate what they do not understand! Remember this. Bitcoin time and time again has proven itself not only useful but saving to people. Take the example of countries like El Salvador, with there current currency they had it was terrible, since introducing Bitcoin they have gotten better.
Bankers, investors (Stock Market) and old farts (Not all but the ones that chose to keep there minds closed) have all blocked the mind from learning about Bitcoin. If you even mention Bitcoin I guarantee you will either get laugh/mocked or get raged at, whether it be online or in person. Trust your own judgments, do your own research, be the person that takes charge of what they do, STOP FOLLOWING THE CROWD!
Everything has risk in life, I could be wrong as well, Bitcoin could go to zero for all we know (I highly doubt it though), but you know what life is about leveled risk as well, whether you get up in the morning and take a shower, you risk slipping in the shower and cracking your neck, when you cross the street you risk getting hit by a car, even simply eating your food you risk choking. Advancement and risk go hand in hand, that is the point I am trying to make here.
When Bitcoin becomes mainstream I guarantee you that those same people that made fun of you or raged will be the same ones to say "Well you just got lucky".
Remember, companies like Amazon and Google started out small and today they are huge. Do your own research, read the Bitcoin standard, understand Bitcoin and its uses and open the mind. Don't follow the crowd always, because that same crowd could potentially be headed off a cliff...
