What are cryptocurrencies?
These are a form of digital currency which are secured by cryptography. Cryptography currencies became cryptocurrencies. Using cryptography, the study of secure communications, makes cryptocurrencies nearly impossible to counterfeit and inherently more secure than non-digital currencies.
At this time the calculator supports two types of cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin and Ethereum. These two cryptocurrencies can be viewed as the blue chips of cryptocurrencies. They are well known, have a lot of support, and have brighter long term horizon than other cryptocurrencies. To learn more, check out our Introduction to Cryptocurrencies Guide.
What is the reduced historical monthly average growth rate?
Projecting growth rates is very complex especially given the short amount of historical data available, deflationary properties of certain cryptocurrencies, and the extreme pricing volatility that comes with this sector. The current growth rates for Bitcoin and Ethereum based on the last five years of historical data are 1466% and 2472% respectively as of August 2021. These growth rate are unsustainable at the current pace. This calculator use 1.25% of the last five years of historical averages. That's very conservative with a reduction of 98.75% of the current growth rate!
For Bitcoin this calculator uses a growth rate of 18.325% (5 year historical average - 1466% * 1.25%). For Ethereum this calculator uses a growth rate of 30.9% (5 year historical average - 2472% * 1.25%).
