$30 to $1M: How this Bitcoin investor turned spare change into seven figures

What started as a simple daily habit has officially grown into a million-dollar Bitcoin portfolio, after several years of quiet, consistent accumulation.

According to data recently shared on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), an anonymous investor who purchased $30 worth of Bitcoin ( BTC ) every single day for the past 7 years, 10 months, and 12 days has recently joined the BTC millionaires’ club.

The individual has spent a total of around $86,370 since their mission commenced in 2017, and that steady stream of small buys is now worth over a million dollars today.

No risky leverage, no market timing, just an almost eight-year streak of daily purchases through various industry phases, including the 2017 bull run and crash, the 2018 bear market, the 2020-2021 bull run, the 2022 downturn, and the 2024/2025 ETF-fueled rally, among others.

The milestone marks a 1,057% return on investment through dollar-cost averaging (DCA), a long-term strategy where fixed amounts are invested at regular intervals regardless of market conditions. 

Crypto Twitter celebrated the feat, praising the investor’s consistency and patience. Some even dubbed the anonymous new millionaire “ a whole legend”, adding that they deserve the profits for their level of conviction. 

The milestone comes as Bitcoin continues to flirt with higher price levels, recently peaking over $110,000 before settling to trade at its current $107,000 level. Growing institutional adoption and other bullish market factors are fueling optimism for even higher prices ahead, suggesting that more gains could still be in store for the new millionaire investor.
