If you invested $1,000 in Treasury bonds 15 years ago, it would be worth rougly $1,300 today.
Meanwhile, just $5 in $BTC from around the same period could be worth more than $80,000 today.
The asset that looked almost absurd back then ended up creating a return gap that traditional safe assets couldn’t come close to matching.
Of course, the trade-off was “risk”.
Bitcoin could have gone to zero, while Treasuries were designed to preserve capital and generate relatively predictable returns.
But 15 years later, it’s hard to ignore the difference in outcome isn’t it?
