A new Bitcoin retirement model draws attention to Twitter and one thing is surprisingly clear: you may need much less BTC to retire than most people think so.
Published by the user X SMISTON with, the analysis examines the amount of bitcoin that someone would need to retire according to their country, its current age and the year of target retirement, using real economic data, inflation trends and a BTC conservative price model.
We know you are curious. Let’s dive.
A different way of looking at retirement
The graphics cover 96 countries and 5 to 75 years, with years of retirement ranging from 2025 to 2055. Instead of using fiduciary currency, the model assumes that you will be withdrawn using only bitcoin and expend regularly up to the age of 100.
It also facilitates annual inflation of 7% and uses a support line for the power law to estimate the long -term Bitcoin value. It is a technical way of saying that the BTC price used here is realistic and not based on media threshing.
If you retire in 2025, you will need more BTC
The sooner you retire, the more you need Bitcoin. For those who plan to retire this year, the study suggests that most people from developed countries will need 1 and 10 BTC. Countries like the United States, Switzerland and Luxembourg are at the top of the list for the highest retirement cost in terms of BTC.
But this image changes quickly when you move the chronology forward.
The more you wait, the less you need BTC
By 2035, most countries need less than 1 BTC for retirement. In many countries at lower cost, the number drops less than 0.5 BTC.
And by 2045 or 2055, the required amount fell even more. Here are some examples of the report for 2045 retirees:
- El Salvador: 0.023 to 0.13 BTC
- Portugal: 0.07 to 0.39 BTC
- Swiss: 0.26 to 1.5 BTC
This means that even a small BTC holding today, in one room, could go very far in the future, especially if Bitcoin continues to gain value and adoption.
Your path to freedom through crypto
This analysis is not financial advice, but it offers a practical way to think of Bitcoin.
If Bitcoin continues on its current path, a room may be sufficient.
For anyone is rushing or placing in the long term, it is a reminder: the true power of Bitcoin may not be in its price today, but in what it could allow you tomorrow.
