Dollar vs Bitcoin, one decade later.

Dollar vs Bitcoin, one decade later.
Same starting point, two choices — and wildly different endings.
If in 2015 you kept your savings in dollars, you’d now have $731 — inflation quietly ate 26.9%.
If you moved them into $BTC? Around $414,500 today. That’s +41,350%.
This is why I always smile when people say “Bitcoin is too volatile.” Sure, zoom in and it’s chaos. Zoom out, and the math is almost rude in its clarity.
The dollar leaks value slowly, politely, year after year. Bitcoin bleeds sometimes, violently — but over time, it compounds conviction. One is designed to melt. The other to resist.
This isn’t about being smart. It’s about understanding incentives and time. Fiat punishes patience. Bitcoin rewards it. Tout simplement.
Math doesn’t care about opinions — and Bitcoin’s math has been flawless so far.
