Week 29 is here, and this one is special.
For months, I've been putting just $2.50 per week into Bitcoin.
Last week I was incredibly close to my first major BTC milestone.
Today, it finally happened:
No big purchase. No attempt to predict the market.
Just consistency.
My strategy remains unchanged:
80% VUG | 10% HIVE | 10% BTC
| Asset | Price | Buy | Added |
|---|---|---|---|
| VUG | $87.24 | $20 | 0.22925 |
| HIVE | $0.04271 | $2.50 | 58.53 |
| BTC | $79,619 | $2.50 | 0.00003140 |
Weekly investment: $25
Total invested: $725
After today's purchases, my holdings are:
| Asset | Holdings | Value |
|---|---|---|
| VUG | 6.93413 | $604.92 |
| HIVE | 1,243.75 | $53.12 |
| BTC | 0.00101599 | $80.89 |
| TOTAL | ā | $738.93 |
Total invested: $725.00
Current value: $738.93
Profit: +$13.93
Return: +1.92% š
This is the milestone I've been waiting for.
Current Bitcoin holdings:
0.00101599 BTC
That may not sound like much.
But remember how we got here:
$2.50 at a time.
Bitcoin is now also worth approximately $80.89, compared with the $72.50 I've contributed to it.
That's approximately:
š„ +$8.39
š„ +11.57%
And this is exactly what I wanted this experiment to demonstrate.
Small amounts can become meaningful when given enough time.
Bitcoin isn't our only milestone.
Look at VUG:
6.93413 / 7 shares
We're only about 0.066 shares away from owning 7.
And HIVE?
1,243.75 / 1,250 HIVE
Only about:
6.25 HIVE
away from our next target.
So Week 30 could potentially bring us two more milestones at the same time:
šÆ 7 VUG shares
šÆ 1,250 HIVE
After finally reaching 0.001 BTC this week, that would make Week 30 another very special update.
I'm going to make this table smaller from now on and focus on recent weeks instead of repeating the entire history every time.
| Week | Invested | Portfolio |
|---|---|---|
| 25 | $625 | $600.90 |
| 26 | $650 | $647.80 |
| 27 | $675 | $678.93 |
| 28 | $700 | $698.71 |
| 29 | $725 | $738.93 |
This is becoming interesting.
Just two weeks ago, the portfolio was almost exactly at break-even.
Today we're about $14 above the money invested.
But short-term profit isn't what excites me most.
The accumulation does.
Bitcoin made the biggest move this week.
Last week:
BTC: $64,567
Today:
BTC: $79,619
That's a significant increase, and because I've been accumulating Bitcoin throughout the previous lower-price weeks, the BTC position has finally moved into profit.
Meanwhile, VUG continues doing exactly what I wanted it to do:
Providing the portfolio with a strong core.
HIVE remains the most difficult position, but its small 10% allocation limits its impact on the overall portfolio.
This is becoming one of the most interesting lessons from this experiment:
Asset selection matters, but allocation matters just as much.
With 0.001 BTC officially achieved, it's time to move the goalposts.
Current: 6.93413 shares
šÆ Next target: 7 shares
99.1% complete
Current: 1,243.75 HIVE
šÆ Next target: 1,250 HIVE
99.5% complete
Current: 0.00101599 BTC ā
š 0.001 BTC achieved
šÆ New target: 0.0015 BTC
And after that?
0.002 BTC.
One step at a time.
"Big milestones don't always require big investments. Sometimes they just require enough small ones."
Twenty-nine weeks.
$725 invested.
Today the portfolio is worth approximately:
$738.93
But more importantly, I now own:
š¢ 6.93413 VUG shares
š“ 1,243.75 HIVE
š 0.00101599 BTC
The first Bitcoin milestone is officially complete. š
And two more milestones are already waiting for us.
Week 30 could be a big one.
See you next week. š
