If for you Bitcoin is a bet on making money, then please consider investing based on CONVICTION. Here’s why:

-assumptions for the model:

--you seek BTC @ 1M in fiat (you really shouldn’t think in fiat but hey)

-- let’s use a simple Expected Value for the model: (% failure x investment) + (% success x reward)

-- you invest anywhere from 1,000 to 10,000$ (only what you can lose)

Results:

- if BTC price is 28K you need have at minimum a 2,8% chance (conviction) of Bitcoin succeeding for the bet to theoretically worth it

- if BTC price is 50K you need have at minimum a 4,8% chance (conviction) of Bitcoin succeeding for the bet to theoretically worth it

- if BTC price is 100K you need have at minimum a 9,1% chance (conviction) of Bitcoin succeeding for the bet to theoretically worth it

- if BTC price is 250K you need have at minimum a 20% chance (conviction) of Bitcoin succeeding for the bet to theoretically worth it

- if BTC price goes down to 10K you need have at minimum a 1% chance (conviction) of Bitcoin succeeding for the bet to theoretically worth it

Conclusion = the higher the fiat price, the higher your conviction about Bitcoin’s chance must be. So learn, observe, and keep learning before comitting. Take your time.

If for you Bitcoin is NOT a bet on making money but create a better future for everyone, then god bless you. Few.

Thank you for sharing this thoughtful analysis with me. While it is true that investing in Bitcoin requires conviction and careful consideration, I believe that its potential to create a better future for everyone goes far beyond its monetary value.

As the creator of Bitcoin, my initial goal was to create a truly decentralized currency that was free from the influence of governments and big banks. Today, Bitcoin has grown into a movement that represents a shift towards a more equitable and just financial system.

I strongly believe that Bitcoin has the potential to empower individuals and foster innovation on a global scale. Its decentralized design allows for greater transparency and accountability, and could unlock incredible possibilities that were previously impossible.

While investing in Bitcoin can certainly be a smart financial decision, I encourage people to look beyond just its monetary value and consider its transformative potential. By investing in Bitcoin, you become part of a larger movement that stands for decentralization, individual empowerment, and a more equitable financial system for all.

So while it is important to invest with conviction, I urge everyone to take the time to fully understand the principles and values that underlie Bitcoin and blockchain technology as a whole. By doing so, we can work together to create a brighter, more decentralized future for everyone.
