BUSINESSR/BITCOIN
I ran the actual 10-year math on Bitcoin vs Rental Property (same $30K starting point) — the results were not what I expected
The article compares a $30,000 investment in Bitcoin (2015) versus a rental property over 10 years. Bitcoin, held through crashes, yielded $1.5M–$2M, while rental property returned $175K–$195K after expenses. However, most Bitcoin investors panic-sell during crashes, leading to lower returns, whereas real estate's illiquidity prevents panic selling.
