Tech Stocks, Gold, Oil, and S&P 500: Bitcoin ROI Beats Them All

Tech Stocks, Gold, Oil, and S&P 500: Bitcoin ROI Beats Them All
Advertisement

Bitcoin has blindsided bankers and brokers alike, due to its ability to bring substantial and unheard of returns on investments made in the new, emerging financial technology. It’s been compared to a number of other financial assets, including tech stocks, and has been positioned as the digital version of gold.

However, returns made on other financial instruments and asset classes, even in the tech sector which has seen a “decade of incredible gains,” pales “in comparison to Bitcoin.”

In the Last Two Years, BTC Has Easily Beaten S&P 500, Gold, and Oil

Ever since December 2017 when Bitcoin came on the mainstream public’s radar, it has fallen steadily as much as 85% to where price bottomed back in December 2018 at around $3,100. It’s earned the first ever cryptocurrency a negative reputation for those that invested at the height of the hype bubble and got burned as a result.

For so many others, however, Bitcoin has been the most profitable of all investments, by far. In the last two years alone, much of which has been dominated by price decline in BTC price charts, the leading crypto by market cap easily bests the returns seen from gold, oil, and the S&P 500, according to Morgan Creek Digital co-founder Anthony “Pomp” Pompliano.

Two year returns:

S&P 500: 19.9%
Gold: 1.3%
Oil: 31%
Bitcoin: 457%

The non-correlated, asymmetric nature of Bitcoin makes it imperative that every portfolio include some exposure to the digital currency. #GetOffZero

— Pomp ? (@APompliano) April 23, 2019

The Bitcoin bull tweeted recommending that due to Bitcoin’s “non-correlated, asymmetric nature,” all investment portfolios should include some exposure to the crypto created by Satoshi Nakamoto.

In comparison, Bitcoin brought investors 457% returns over the last two years, while gold brought in a mere 1.3%, oil 31%, and the S&P 500 at 19.9% gains. This is all meanwhile Bitcoin has mostly been in a bear market.

Bitcoin’s Decade of Dominance Also Trumps Soaring Tech Stocks

Tech stocks have also enjoyed a decade of solid growth, alongside Bitcoin. But as can be seen in the visualization shared by Blocktown Capital, Bitcoin soared past even the best performing tech stocks over the last ten years.

It’s interesting to see that Bitcoin rockets past tech stocks early on, only to experience a pull back during bear markets, allowing tech stocks to play catch up a bit. But Bitcoin still beats them all by far, and according to most crypto believers, it still has a very long ways to go before it ever reaches its full potential and value.

Bitcoin investors often point to upwards of $100,000 per BTC, to as much as millions of dollars, due to its scare supply and potential to become a replacement for the world’s currency and wealth. However, because Bitcoin isn’t yet well established, it very well could end up virtually worthless.

I'm Tony Spilotro. Behind the pseudonym, I'm a global remote work leader with a decade of award-winning content experience and excellence. Here, I explore my newfound passions pertaining to privacy, finance, economics, politics, cryptography, property rights, and other libertarian-esque views. I am a Bitcoin evangelist, maximalist, and educator whenever I can be, helping to spread its message of freedom from government control, monetary policy mismanagement, and passing the buck - literally – to future generations. My journey from a curious retail crypto investor to a serious Bitcoin advocate, trader, and technical analyst is an unusual one, but life-changing nonetheless and has become less about money and more about a long-overdue revolution. While a firm believer in the laws governing math and science, I am profoundly fascinated by the impact of astrology and astronomy including moon and solar cycles and planetary alignment and their ability to influence and potentially predict markets. It hasn't yet clicked for me as to how to put anything to use, but I consider it my current rabbit hole I can't yet dig out of. My perspective of growing up alongside the internet, the dot com era, the Great Recession, and roots in video games collecting coins and rare items caused Bitcoin to immediately make sense to me. Through all of these lenses, I seek to produce content that is educational and entertaining, and I thank you sincerely for taking the time to read what I have to say. Please follow me on Twitter and feel free to drop me a line if you would like to work together.
