What $1,000 in BNB in 2020 became

Steady then surging. BNB spent much of the year around $15 before joining the late-year rally, ending near $37 ahead of a massive run.

If you had put $1,000 into BNB at the start of 2020 — buying around $14 per BNB on January 01, 2020 — you would have acquired roughly 72.8948 BNB. At today's price of $606, that position is worth about $44,182, a return of +4318% (44x your money).

Lump sum vs dollar-cost averaging

The figure above assumes a single lump-sum buy at the start of 2020. If you had instead spread that same $1,000 into equal weekly purchases from 2020 until today, it would be worth about $6,302. Lump sum usually wins when you happen to buy near a market low, while dollar-cost averaging lowers your risk of buying right before a crash. There's no single right answer — it depends on the entry point and your risk tolerance.
