How rich could I be if I use DCA strategy to invest in Bitcoin continuously until it reaches its 21million limit? Knowing how much it has gotten to now at 19.15million.
Will those who earn from campaigns, offer services online or conduct business with cryptocurrency be so rich, seeing that they have been in the game long and have accessed or have access in the form of holdings or savings or have its coins as payment in one form or another?
In terms of pure market mechanics, I think we can look at old collectibles to determine what the natural price trend for deflationary assets like bitcoin should be. Most baseball cards printed in 2023 likely won't be worth much. But over time the limited edition minted items will become increasingly scarce, leading to consistent price hikes. Bitcoin's price trend should follow a similar pattern.
But of course, bitcoin's value is also determined by speculation and trading from hedge funds and other assorted high liquidity investors who buy and sell in large volume. Then we have regulators and lawmakers who are creating laws relating to stablecoins and crypto in general.
All of these factors, and assorted other variables combine to determine what the eventual price will be. It can be impossible to know what the outcome will be, without a time machine. Even if people can guess the correct outcome, they probably could not describe the series of steps which led to it.
