We can't really say how much , can we ? If you have have 10k coin and each BTC worth 1$ it wouldn't be much for retiring of course . but if you own that amount and each BTC costs 500$ oer something , that would be more then enough . So it all depends on the price . ~ Madness its assumed price would be high.. my goal to get 1000 in cold storage 100 BTC would be enough then I guess if the price is like 2000$ . Now if you want a private jet and boat then this is another story ~ Madness 100 btc with a price of $2000 each. What will happen if the price of goods also increased due to inflation? Wouldn't that be a problem if you solely relied on bitcoins as your retirement fund? well said think no one consider this a problem

100 btc with a price of $2000 each. What will happen if the price of goods also increased due to inflation? Wouldn't that be a problem if you solely relied on bitcoins as your retirement fund? well said think no one consider this a problem Let's guess that the average age on here is mid 30s. If you're lucky you might consider retiring in 20-25 years. If we also guess that BTC is a success, by 2036 over 99.6% of coins have been mined and we're well and truly into its deflationary phase. It'll get stronger and stronger against dollars or whatever your local currency is.

Lets say I want to buy bitcoins today and store them for 20 years to use a my retirement fund. Live comfortably, but don't need to buy a yacht or anything. How many do you think I would need to buy?
It depends what you mean by live confortably and where; it depends on how the world will be in 20 years. Try 4 BTC, some gold and a third investment not to put all your eggs in the same basket.

Depends what kind of lifestyle do you want when you get retired And depends of the price of BTC usually with one 1M dollars you can retire, with a decent lifestyle, i find 100 btc of a price of 10k each, a perfect solution

As much, as possible Nobody knows how much BTC will cost for 20 years Don't rely only on btc as a retirement fund because as to what you just said, nobody knows how much btc will cost in the next 20 years. Maybe it will lose its value, so instead of focusing your retirement fund on btc, why not try to diversify your investments?

Wouldn't that be a problem if you solely relied on bitcoins as your retirement fund? Inflation is bound to happen no matter how tight or how well the economy is doing. But having bitcoin around with the price increase, it will surely offset any effect of inflation, that is... the rise in the price of bitcoin is more than the increase caused by inflation. I think diversification is still the best option here, whether it is precious metal, property but definitely bitcoin qualifies as one in the investment portfolio.

Approximately quarter of a million dollars at current prices? Where I stay, I can consider retiring on that now.

it will depend on how much money you think is enough for retirement and the price of bitcoin after 20 years it can be only 10 bitcoins if you think 1Million usd is enough and price hit 100000$ after 20 years

Naw, bitcoin should be past or near 10K by 2025 if things go accordingly.

As Voorhees stated, bitcoin prediction is pretty much binary. In 20 years 1 bitcoin is either worth $0 or a very high number ($100,000?). My position in bitcoin is a bet on bitcoin becoming mainstream (>$100,000/BTC).

i think $10k at some point is quite a fair prediction. can't see it being worth $100k 0,01btc which is now worth $2,50 will then be worth $1000

Too many folks are stuck in the present when it comes to perspective. I remember reading in 2010 a guy was trying to obtain some coins on the Bitcoin OTC market. No one was willing to deal with him so someone gave him 2000 coins out of pity. Only five years ago they were effectively worthless. If 10 million decided they needed 2 coins in their life that would be impossible to fulfill. There's still a humongous amount of upside if it really goes places.
