Bitcoin’s stature as digital gold has now started to gain rapid steam. As per CoinMarketCap BTC stats, the asset is up 77% in the last year, showcasing its resurgence via increased interest and demand. This demand has been driven by a majority of factors, including the rapid institutionalization of the assets, as well as the US officially backing the digital asset domain.
At present, Bitcoin is more than just a way to invest. BTC has now become a lifestyle savior, an element that is capable of delivering massive profits if one dares to pursue the path of crypto holistically.
Per new research by Bitcoin researcher Sminston With, Bitcoin has the potential to transform lives by helping investors to retire early. In a new infographic shared by With on X, the researchers outlined the average BTC needed for each country’s citizens to retire early by 2035. For countries like Malaysia, Brazil, El Salvador, and Belarus, nearly 0.1 BTC is enough to sail through retirement.
Moreover, in countries like Egypt, Pakistan, Sudan, India, and Bangalore, less than 0.1 to around 0.01 BTC is more than enough to lead a comfortable life.
However, for leading economies like the USA, Russia, Switzerland, the USA, and Mexico, one would need 1-8 BTC to lead a luxurious yet steady lifestyle.
The amount of Bitcoin needed to retire depends on the country you live in.
