Well... 100,000btc is currently worth over $3 million USD. So that's a good amount. There's also the "Vladimir Club" the premise of which is that 2,100btc (which is 1/10,000th of all btc to be issued) is a good amount to shoot for.
And yes - there's a few people here who have (or HAD) over 100,000btc from the early days. How many are still holding is VERY interesting indeed

Bitcoin could fail and collapse, or it could reach sustained mainstream use in everyday transactions.
Given the former, there isn't any amount of bitcoins you could hold on to that would make you "the new wealthy elite".
Given the later, it's conceivable that 1 BTC could be worth $100,000 someday. In that case, 30 BTC would be worth $3 million!

Moar. My plan is to keep buying what I can afford until I no longer need to. Then I will quit my day job. Bitcoin cannot fail unless either the laws of mathematics or human nature change.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

I'd say you need to own 1,000 BTC right now to have a shot at becoming "rich" in the next 10 years. I define "rich" as being wealthy enough to live on your investment income rather than working.
To actually become one of the wealthy elite, meaning that you're so wealthy that you can get away with questionable stuff because people are afraid of you, you'd need to be a true early adopter holding 100K BTC or more.

Bitcoin is already massive. Now check the time-line.......
2013-2025: About 100k BTC
2026-2050: About 1k BTC
2050~ : 1 single unit of BTC.
Give or take......

It seems quite massive to me already, WordPress and Reddit aren't any small stuff.

I can't imagine holding on to a very large amount of bitcoins currently. As others have stated, the bitcoin market could collapse at any moment and their is no FDIC for BC  |

If they become more mainstream, I can only assume that they have more intrinsic value due to the fact that they are accept more widely. However, we have their value crash before, so I would be very careful, if I were you.

with block rewards becoming smaller with the more mining being done i dont see how the price can crash.. unless BC somehow gets compromised and cannot be fixed.

I think the answer depends on how massive it actually gets. But if the megabulls are right, you could have about 2-3K per coin so if you had about 300-500 coins you'd be pretty much set

Bitcoin cannot fail unless either the laws of mathematics or human nature change.
Or until someone finds a weakness in one of the cryptographic primitives (or builds a working quantum computer). |
