Buying $100 worth of Bitcoin each month

If you had bought $100 worth of Bitcoin every month since July 1, 2013 — the day the first transaction on BtcTurk took place — how much would you have save today?

Cryptocurrency market followers are sometimes hesitant to “buy and save” or “trade frequently”. But if you used Bitcoin as a method of saving, what would you have accumulated so far?

⚠️ Important Notice: This article is not intended as investment advice. It consists of calculations made using daily opening prices and 0.01 per cent commission rate in order to show the current possible value of the savings in case of regular accumulation on BtcTurk since July 1, 2013, when the first transaction on the platform was made. Unfortunately BtcTurk does not provide USD pairs. The $USD prices are taken from Coinmarketcap.

On July 1, 2013, you start saving by buying approximately 1.02451031 (1) Bitcoin for $100 at the daily opening price. Although the amount of Bitcoin you purchase for $100 over the following years will vary depending on the Bitcoin exchange rate, the amount of Bitcoin to accumulate in your account will increase. Just like emptying your loose change into a piggy bank and not taking anything out of it.
