Don't Sell Your $BTC !
I hate to see the data put out by @Bluechip showing Individual Bitcoin ownership peaked in 2024 and is projected to flip by 2036, where Institutions will own the majority.
Just think about the 3 biggest costs of selling.
1. Tax Drag:
Once you sell, you immediately pay 20-50% of your gains in taxes; that's a guaranteed loss, you can't get back.
2. Compounding:
This is hard for brains to comprehend, but even at a 20% CAGR, BTC doubles every 3.5 years, so:
$2 - $4 - $8 - $16 - $32 - $64 - $128 - $256
and to go from $128 - $256 is only 3.5 years... "IF" you hold your bitcoin
3. Lost Opportunity:
You no longer have the asset to leverage as capital and collateral.
Don't give your Bitcoin to institutions, and don't give your government a % of your profits.
