Bitcoin 100k?
BTC 100K: Just the Beginning?
Nobody panic, but Bitcoin is almost six figures.
Remember when your friend told you Bitcoin was "too expensive" at $1,000? At $10,000? At $50,000? Well, Bitcoin is a whole lot more expensive at almost $100,000 and here's why that's actually still cheap...
A Million Dollar Home vs A Million Dollar Bitcoin
Your neighbors don't bat an eye at a million-dollar home. Your grandparents sure do though! They never imagined a house would cost so much when they were buying their first homes. But mention Bitcoin hitting a million and everyone thinks you're crazy. Why? Because they think it can’t go higher, and because they don't understand scarcity. Bitcoin is extremely rare. How rare is it? How about more rare than gold!
Let’s talk some numbers:
- World Gold Supply: 5.7 billion ounces
- Housing: 2.3 billion worldwide
- Bitcoin: Just 21 million. Ever. And about 4 million of those? Lost forever
That makes Bitcoin:
- 270 times rarer than gold!
- 100x rarer than a house
- and getting scarcer by the day
When you put it in perspective you start to understand just how scarce this thing is, and just how valuable it might be. But scarcity is only half the story. While bitcoin gets more valuable, your dollars? They’re doing something entirely different…
Money Printer Goes BRRR: A Story About Your Savings
Imagine this: You've worked hard for 20 or 30 years and ‘managed to save just a little bit of money’ as Tracy Chapman said in her 1988 song ‘Fast Car.’ You’ve got $100,000 and you’re ready to enjoy the fruits of your labor. But then overnight, Jerome Powell over at the Federal Reserve, drunk on power casually decides to print a couple TRILLION new dollars out of thin air. Instantly there are 40% more dollars in existence than when you went to bed. Your $100,000? Now it only get’s about $60,000 in worth of goods. The government has just erased 10-12 years of your life away and stolen your life savings.
Look at the chart below. That's your savings! That’s your dollars value in absolute freefall.
Every year, your savings buy less and less and that’s not an accident - that's by design.
But Bitcoin? Bitcoin tells a different story. Look at the cost of a house below when measured in Bitcoin instead of dollars.
Do you see it? In 2016, it cost 664 Bitcoin for an average American home. Today? Just 6.6 Bitcoin. The cost of a house went down when measured in bitcoin! And not by a little, by a lot. 99% to be exact. A house today, when measured in Bitcoin is 99% cheaper than just 8 years ago. Take a look again if you need to. Wild stuff isn’t it!
Here’s another example, the price of an iPhone, but measured in Bitcoin:
How is this possible you ask? There’s a term for it, it’s called deflation and it’s the exact opposite of what’s happening to your dollars. Instead of watching prices rise year after year, squeezing you out of a basic living, Bitcoiners are watching prices DROP! Think about that. While inflation steals your savings making everything more expensive, Bitcoin does the opposite. Your money gets stronger, not weaker. Prices go down, not up.
At first it seems impossible, because we’ve been lied to. We’ve been told that we must accept a lower standard of living, that we must accept the theft of our savings and time because, ‘that’s just the way it is.’ Maybe it’s time we opt out of this corrupt system designed to impoverish us and start demanding a better one.
A Race of Nations
Now imagine what happens to the price of something more scarce than gold or houses when governments begin a race to get their hands on some. Trump has promised a United States strategic Bitcoin stockpile and has been in meetings with crypto industry leaders already since his election. Think about that- the worlds largest economy is about to start hoarding Bitcoin. What do you think other nations will do? Stand by and watch?
“But Rory” people ask me, “Isn’t $100,000 too high?”
But when you understand:
- Only about 17 million coins for the whole world
- Entire nations are about to start competing for them
- Wall street is already buying billions of dollars worth every day
The real question becomes… Is $100,000 too low?
Bottom Line
- Bitcoin is flirting with 6 figures
- Your dollars are being printed to death
- NATIONS are about to start hoarding
- Most people still don’t get it
- You are still early- Bitcoin has about as many users as the internet did in 1999
The internet in 1999... In '99, skeptics said the internet was a fad, a bubble, too expensive to invest in. Sound familiar? Now we can't imagine a life without it. Bitcoin isn't just money - it's monetary revolution delivered through technology. And just like the internet in '99, we're still so early.
This is not a get rich quick scheme. It's a "how not to get poorer" scheme. It's about preserving your hard-earned savings in an asset that holds its value and can't be printed into oblivion. It's about rejecting the corrupt system designed to make you poor and dependent on the government.
The revolution isn't coming. It's here.
The question is: Which side do you want to be on?
Don't wait for the next all-time high.
