iPhone vs. Investment

📱 The iPhone — a gadget that loses half its value within a year and becomes outdated fast.
₿ Bitcoin — an asset that has historically shown growth over the long term.

Every new iPhone is a symbol of choice: spend now or invest for the future.

Don’t Miss the Moment

Many people start small: they buy cryptocurrency with the same amount they would spend on a new phone and watch the results over 1–2 years.

This offers practical experience:
  • How trading works,
  • What liquidity and volatility mean,
  • How an asset’s price changes over time.

Apple releases a new iPhone every year.
In the same span of time, Bitcoin has evolved from an “enthusiast's experiment” to a legitimate financial asset.

The question remains: What will offer more value over the years — a new smartphone or digital assets?

Why Bitcoin Surpasses the iPhone in Value

Every September, Apple reveals a new iPhone, and the crypto community once again does the math: how many bitcoins could you buy instead of the latest smartphone?

In 2011, the iPhone 4S cost around $650. At that time, that amount would have bought you 162 BTC. Today, that’s worth over $18 million.

iPhone in Bitcoins: A Look from 2011 to 2025

iPhone 5 — 52.7 BTC
iPhone 6 — 1.6 BTC
iPhone X — 0.14 BTC
iPhone 13 — 0.05 BTC
iPhone 15 — 0.042 BTC
iPhone 17 (2025) — just 0.007 BTC

The Conclusion is Clear: The longer Bitcoin has been around, the cheaper a new iPhone is in BTC.

Why Does This Happen?

  1. Limited Supply: There will only ever be 21 million BTC, and scarcity increases its value.
  2. Growing Demand: Institutional investors and funds are adding Bitcoin to their portfolios.
  3. Macroeconomics: Inflation and low interest rates make digital assets more attractive.
  4. Cyclicality: Each rise and fall of BTC brings it to new levels.
