Bitcoin just celebrated a strange anniversary.
450 times declared dead, and still breathing — actually sprinting.
Since 2010, the website Bitcoin Is Dead has counted every obituary written by critics, experts, and media. Each time $BTC was “finished”, “obsolete”, “doomed”. 450 times. ⚰️
And here’s the punchline I love: if you had invested just $100 in $BTC after each of those death notices, your portfolio today would be worth $91.8 million.
That number messes with your head a bit. Because it’s not about being early. It’s about being stubborn. About buying when headlines scream fear and certainty. Every obituary was written with confidence. Every one of them was wrong.
Bitcoin doesn’t die quietly. It dies loudly, in public, again and again — and then comes back stronger. Like some Mediterranean mythological beast, sunburned and smiling. Un truc de fou.
So next time you read “Bitcoin is dead”, maybe don’t argue. Just nod, sip your coffee, and remember: history has receipts. ☕️🧡
