Bitcoin market cap now is about $400 billion. In 2020 it was probably about one third to half that? So there's about $250 billion new wealth created since 2020 in Bitcoin alone. Sort of. I think plenty of Bitcoins are lost, some say perhaps 20%. I don't really know the percentage lost. But it's big. Anyways, Bitcoin's price performance hasn't been that amazing (like it's earlier history) since summer 2017. It was about $3,000 then. Since then it has ranged up to $17k, back to $4k, up to $65k, back to $16k, and now it seems like it's making another up move, but lets see. If history is any indication, seems like Bitcoin should make a run up to about $150,000 within the next 18 months. But, I do wonder who are the buyer with this kind of cash to spend chasing the dream.....
