2025: Bitcoin's Golden Year

Welcome to Financial Performer

Bitcoin just dethroned Gold as the hardest money in existence. Now it’s headed to $850,000. Here’s why:
​
Happy new year friend! 2025 is shaping up to be an explosive year for Bitcoin. How do I know? Simple. Bitcoin booms every 4 years, like clockwork. It's true. Mind-blowing rallies kick off for Bitcoin right after something called "the halving" - when Bitcoin's new supply gets cut in half.

So where are we now? My friend- we're exactly 4 years since the last boom... fresh off another halving, and ready for the next colossal move…

That’s why I started Financial Performer. Because I don’t want you to miss the opportunity that’s happening right in front of your eyes. I want you to understand, the BEST PERFORMING ASSET IN HISTORY, is about to go on another tear. Let me show you.

Dial it back to 2013, Bitcoin was a baby and had just had its first ever ‘halving.’ What happened next? The price rocketed up an astounding 12,000% in just a few months! Then, exactly four years later after the next halving, Bitcoin surged again. This time 4000% in mere months. Then again, four years later in 2021, it soared another 1000%!
​
Don’t believe me. Have a look for yourself! Each of the green lines is a Bitcoin halving and every single time the returns are massive. What do you think happens next!?

​
The Four Year Magic Trick

I can already hear you saying ‘Sounds amazing Rory, but what the heck is a halving!?’ If you read FP edition 4, 'What The Heck is Bitcoin Mining?' you’ll recall that miners around the world use supercharged computers to mine new bitcoins. It takes a lot of work and a ton of energy and so they are rewarded with new bitcoins. For the last four years the reward was 6 BTC, or $600k at today’s prices. Not bad right?! But after its most recent halving in April, BTC’s reward was drastically reduced to just 3 BTC or 300k in dollar terms. This makes Bitcoin that much harder to come by, and that much more valuable.

The magic behind these price explosions? Two words:
​
Supply and demand.
​
Imagine for a moment if oil drilling was the same as BTC mining. Companies spending a bunch of money on advanced tech to drill deep into the ground and pump out oil. Now imagine, by some strange feat of nature, we knew that on a certain date, every four years, all the oil wells in the world would suddenly produce only half the oil! What do you think would happen to the price of oil? It would skyrocket! That my friend is exactly what happens to BTC every halving.

​
The Golden Flippening

​

These are 1 kilo gold bars. You've probably seen them in movies, stacked in vaults or being taken from said vaults by bad dudes wearing funny masks. Each one is worth about $100,000, or roughly the same as a Bitcoin. There’s just one tiny difference. Supply. There are 200 million of these bars in the world, but there are only 21 million Bitcoin. That’s 10 times more gold bars than Bitcoins. In other words, Bitcoin is 10 times rarer than a gold bar!
​
"But Bitcoin is too big now," they say. "It can't go much higher."

They were saying the same thing when Bitcoin was $100, $1,000, $10,000... and they’re wrong again because they don’t understand what makes Bitcoin truly revolutionary - its programmed scarcity.

​
Hard Money Gets Harder

Every time Bitcoin halves, it does something that makes the thieving, depraved central bankers weep: it cuts its own inflation rate in half. No politics, no emergency meetings, no committees deciding how much they’ll steal from you this year - just pure, programmed scarcity baked straight into the code.

This drastic cut to inflation makes the value of Bitcoin soar. Conversely, the ever increasing inflation of the dollars we use everyday, absolutely destroys their value. We’ve all felt the pinch of this pernicious policy. Our hard earned money doesn't go as far as it should. The criminal government happily tells us inflation is ‘only' 4%. But those who follow Financial Performer know, that simply means they’re ‘only stealing’ 4% of our life savings in any given year. Truth be told, it’s worse than that, because while they are robbing you they are also lying to you! Real inflation is closer to 10-15%! Those savings you worked so hard to build are being stolen by criminals right in front of your eyes.

Governments destroying the money supply is nothing new. It’s exactly why humans have historically turned to gold. It can't be inflated. You can’t conjure it up with a keyboard stroke. Mother nature makes it hard to get, keeping its inflation rate locked at just 1.3% a year. That's what made it the hardest money around, until recently…take a look below.

Once you see it, you can’t unsee it. The numbers don’t lie - the 'magic internet money' everyone dismissed? It's now harder than the metal we've prized since the building of the pyramids. Gold, humanity's hardest money for five thousand years, has for the first time in history been dethroned by something even harder- Bitcoin.

The question is not whether Bitcoin will keep growing - but how much it will grow. When the hardest money in history meets increasing global demand, the math gets mind-bending…

​
The $850,000 Question

The value of all the gold in the world is $18 trillion.
The value of all the BTC in the world is $1.9 trillion.
​
If Bitcoin, harder and rarer than gold itself were simply to match gold’s global value?

It would be worth about $850,000 a coin

Still think Bitcoin's too big to grow?

Bitcoin is known as the ‘honey badger’ of money for a reason. Like the honey badger, it doesn’t care about anyone’s opinion. It doesn't care about depraved bankers, criminal politicians or ham fisted regulations. Bitcoin just keeps doing what it’s always been doing, what it was designed to do from the start: be the hardest money humans have ever seen.

Still think Bitcoin's too big to grow?

Honey badger doesn't care. 2025 is here…

​
The Bottom Line

• $850,000 BTC would match gold’s market cap
• Every 4 years the bitcoin reward is cut in half - 'the halving'
• Previous halvings led to 12,000%, 4000%, and 1000% gains
• 2025 marks Bitcoin’s next 4 year boom cycle
• Bitcoin's rate of inflation is now lower than gold’s
• One bitcoin is ten times rarer than a 1kg gold bar
