Holding Bitcoin is profitable 99.92% of all days.
Bitcoiners have maintained a profitable portfolio for 99.92% of the days, with just six days of investing in Bitcoin (BTC) since its inception 14 years ago, on January 3, 2009.
Bitcoin recently hit an all-time high of $73,600 in mid-March, confirming that BTC holders at all price points are appreciating their investments.
Since then, Bitcoin has continued to hover in the $68,000-$70,000 range, according to data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView.
Due to price fluctuations caused by market volatility, only a handful of Bitcoin traders are not profitable. According to crypto financial services firm Blockchain.com, bitcoin purchased between March 9-13 and March 25-29 was a loss.
In other words, 0.16% or six days of the last 3,732 trading days were not profitable investments.
By extension, the price chart reinforces the strategic value of holding Bitcoin during bear markets. CoinMarketCap estimates that 86.28% of Bitcoin wallets hold up to $1,000, 13.03% hold between $1,000 and $10,000, and 0.69% hold $100,000 in Bitcoin.
Additionally, Bitcoin's consistent returns from bear markets and price maintenance help the mining community thrive, contribute to the hash rate, and inadvertently increase the security of the Bitcoin network.
