Coins Bought = Investment ÷ Buy Price
Gross Profit = (Sell Price − Buy Price) × Coins
Fees = Investment × Fee% + Sell Value × Fee%
Net Profit = Gross Profit − Fees
ROI = Net Profit ÷ Investment × 100%
Example: $1,000 invested at $30,000/BTC → 0.0333 BTC. Sold at $65,000 → sell value $2,167. Gross profit $1,167. Fees (0.5% in + 0.5% out) ≈ $16. Net profit ≈ $1,151. ROI ≈ 115%.
| Scenario | Buy Price | Sell Price | $1,000 Invested | ROI |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2020 → 2021 bull run | $9,000 | $64,000 | +$6,111 | +611% |
| 2021 ATH → 2022 bear | $69,000 | $16,000 | −$768 | −77% |
| 2022 bear → 2024 ATH | $16,000 | $73,000 | +$3,563 | +356% |
| $30K → $65K (typical cycle) | $30,000 | $65,000 | +$1,151 | +115% |
| 5% swing trade (short-term) | $60,000 | $63,000 | +$40 | +4% |

Open Full Calculator →Bitcoin profit = (Sell Price × Coins Held) − (Buy Price × Coins Held) − Trading Fees. If you bought 0.1 BTC at $30,000 ($3,000 total) and sold at $65,000 ($6,500 total), gross profit is $3,500. After 0.5% fees both ways (~$48), your net profit is roughly $3,452.
Bitcoin has historically averaged 100–200% annual returns over 4-year halving cycles, though with extreme volatility. Any trade returning over 20% per year beats most traditional assets. However, Bitcoin can also drop 70–80% in bear markets — always weigh ROI against your maximum drawdown risk.
Yes. In the United States, Bitcoin held under 1 year is taxed as ordinary income (up to 37%). Held over 1 year qualifies for long-term capital gains (0%, 15%, or 20% depending on income bracket). Our calculator estimates your tax — always consult a CPA for your specific situation.
Fees directly reduce profit. At 0.5% per trade, a $10,000 position costs $100 in round-trip fees — BTC must move 1%+ just to break even. Most exchanges charge 0.1%–0.5%. Binance (0.1%), Coinbase Pro (0.4%), and Kraken (0.26% maker) are common benchmarks.
BTC was ~$7,000–$9,000 in early 2020. By the 2024 ATH of $73,000, a $1,000 investment would have grown to roughly $8,000–$10,000 — an 8–10x return before fees and taxes. Use our DCA calculator to model periodic buying over the same period.
