How much would $100 in Bitcoin be worth today?

It depends on when you invested. $100 in Bitcoin in January 2015 would be worth tens of thousands of dollars today. Use the calculator above to check any specific date.

Where does the historical price data come from?

We use CoinGecko's comprehensive historical price database, which tracks prices for thousands of cryptocurrencies back to their launch dates. Results are cached permanently for instant lookups.

Can I use this for tax calculations?

This tool shows approximate historical prices for educational purposes. For tax calculations, use our Crypto Tax Calculator or consult a tax professional with your actual purchase records.

Should I invest based on past returns?

Past performance does not indicate future results. Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile. Consider using dollar-cost averaging to reduce timing risk, and never invest more than you can afford to lose.
