How to Calculate your BTC Profit including inflation

So I was telling someone about my experiences in the crypto-verse and how I got started. 

For me, and I guess that is the case for many it started with Bitcoin. I bought about 1000 euros of it in 2020, the problem ...well it´s not really a problem...so the issue is that I kept adding BTC to that wallet whenever I made a nice bit of profit here and there.

By doing so I polluted the ability to track how my initial investment was doing. Now the discussion I had made me curious about what my 1000 euro´s of Bitcoin would have been worth today.

And if possible even including the inflation adjustment..... And peeps we are living in amazing times, because more often than not I am surprised that what I require already exists.

The Bitcoin Price Return Calculator

Just put in the amount and the dates and select with or without inflation correction. It will show that my $1100 dollars invested in BTC in 2020 would be worth $1940 today.

And I am not gonna spoil that good feeling by checking the inflation....Darn I am too curious and if you are too have a good look to see what the impact of the inflation would be ;)

So nothing fancy today just wanted to share this super easy tool with y´all  https://dqydj.com/bitcoin-return-calculator/

Now I have seen some discussions that CPI does not equal the real inflation, causing this calculator to possibly overstate your real return. Now for me that is so minimal that I am very happy with the outcome of the calculator. But if you want an even more detailed calculation:

You can correct these values on the real inflation rate (RIF)%:

Annualized Return New = Annualized Return Old - RIF

Ending Value New = Ending Value Old * (1-RIF/100)^(t/365)

where t=ending date-starting date.

Now that for me has no add value at all, but I wanted to give full disclosure. What I am mainly interested in is to have a bit of an idea of the inflationary impact on my investment. Because this impact can be quite high, over $150 dollars in 15 months.

Still, with or without the inflation correction, the return on investment (ROI) has been huge over those 15 months. But then comes the what if into play.... What if I bought my Bitcoin straight away when my friend first told me about crypto.

The first time I was suggested to buy some BTC was 5 months prior to when I actually bought Bitcoin... but looking at the outcome almost made weep:

Only 5 months difference in time, but almost 3000 dollars difference in ROI. Darn, I was too late to the party, as always. Still, I am in profit and enjoyed my time in the crypto-verse a lot. But it proves my theory, no hindsight is the best vision in the crypto space.
