Last week, results of the best and worst-performing assets of the last decade released by Bank of American Merrill Lynch (BAML) were shared with the public, calling Bitcoin the “best performing asset of the last decade.”
According to the results, an investor who would have paid $1 USD for a Bitcoin in 2010 would now have a $90,026 USD investment today (see below). This is a large difference compared to an investment in U.S. equities that would have turned $1 USD in 2010 to $3.46 USD today.
Growth of Bitcoin in the Last 10 years
_________
The worst rated investment on Bank of America’s list is Myanmar Kyat. The currency has lost significant value leaving the equivalent of $1 USD a decade ago at a current value of $0.004 USD today.
*For context, in many cases, Bitcoin is not limited to one country, or one group of investors, and therefore has allowed many to participate globally.
