Bought $BTC at the beginning of the year, held without selling, and by the end of the year, already lost 8%.

Today, BTC price is over $87,000,
Early January 2025 is $95,000,
If you didn't sell at 126,000 and took profits,
Holding for a year, you lost more than 8% compared to just buying Bitcoin,
Tinkering for a year, still losing money 😅
This one-year cycle, the results are not so satisfying.

PANews has compiled the returns of various assets in 2025,
Investing in BTC yields -6%,
Investing in gold yields 66.83%,
Investing in A-shares yields 20.23%,
This data is based on the first trading day of 2025 and current data,
Personal gains or losses depend on individual operation skills,
Those who profit or lose are not within the scope of discussion.
Looking at the data,
Playing in the crypto circle this year,
Making money is quite difficult, losing money is the average 😂.

From 2015 to 2025 data,
BTC's annual return among all investments is either the best or the worst,
According to the four-year cycle of Bitcoin,
2021 and 2017 were bull markets,
The first year of a bull turning bear results in huge losses, the second and third years improve,
Just this year, 2025, the bull market arrived a bit earlier, with a high point in early October,
And it declined quickly as well,
By the end of 2025, it has already lost 8 points,
Referring to historical data,
Investing in BTC next year might result in even greater losses, so everyone should be mentally prepared.
Of course, history is just a reference,
Overinterpreting and over-referencing can be like trying to cut the sword on a boat,
It's still necessary to analyze specific issues case by case.

As gold prices continue to rise this year,
The current market value of gold has surpassed $31.424 trillion,
There was a period when,
The market value difference between BTC and gold was only 12 times,
Now the gap has widened further,
Gold's market value is 18 times that of BTC,
Bitcoin's market cap ranks 8th on the global asset list,
Currently at $1.7 trillion,
Also below silver's $4 trillion market cap.

Market cap data fluctuates every year,
Will Bitcoin become digital gold? Only time will tell,
We are participating in an infinite game,
There is no end, only the enjoyment of the process,
If you need to cash out to improve life, do so,
If you need to admit that your investment was not ideal, admit your mistake,
Keep improving in the next year.
