As we know, bitcoin is the star investment of decade. With bitcoin, the worlds perception money has changed.
CNN backed its claim with numbers provided by Bank of America Securities, which showed a tiny $1 investment in Bitcoin at the start of 2010 would be worth more than $90,000 today (or, considering its latest price dives, until quite recently).
Still, regardless of its recent performance, Bitcoin dominated more traditional investments. Even though the US stock market is the strongest in the world, $1 in American stocks at the start of the decade would now reportedly be valued at just $3.46.
One dollar invested in a 30-year US treasury bond over the same time period would now be worth $2.08.
Gold, however, was reportedly the top commodity of the 2010s (aside from Bitcoin, of course). A $1 gold investment in 2010 is said to be worth just $1.34, while the same in oil would equate to 74 cents.
