    Most Australians think they’ve missed the boat on Bitcoin, that the price is too high and the numbers are out of reach. In this episode, Matt breaks down the real maths behind long‑term compounding, inflation‑adjusted targets, and SMSF structures to show how surprisingly small the starting number can be for a strong retirement outcome.

    What the episode covers

    ◼️ How much Bitcoin a 30, 40 and 50‑year‑old would need today to target $2M (inflation‑adjusted) by age 60

    ◼️ How long‑term CAGR, inflation and SMSF tax efficiency change retirement projections

    ◼️ The impact of consistent DCA and why compounding can outperform traditional super over time
