$BTC Outperforms S&P 500 by 88% Since 2020


$BTC has delivered returns vastly exceeding the S&P 500 index since 2020, with the traditional stock benchmark down 88% when measured in $BTC denomination despite reaching record highs in dollar terms.


The S&P 500 surged 106% in USD value since 2020, yet collapsed significantly against $BTC, according to Opening Bell Daily co-founder Phil Rosen. The stark contrast emerges as both assets simultaneously break new records in their respective markets.


Warren Buffett has frequently championed the S&P 500 as optimal for average investors, reportedly supporting a 90/10 strategy with 90% allocated to the index and 10% in short-term U.S. Treasury bonds. The billionaire hedge fund manager has long touted the benchmark's consistent performance.


Since 1957, the #SPX index delivered annual inflation-adjusted returns of around 6.68%, typically exceeding average U.S. inflation rates. The index tracks 500 leading companies listed on American stock exchanges and currently sits at $6,715.79, up 14.43% year-to-date.
