πŸš€ Weekly Investment Simulation – Week 29. $25/week to reach Financial Freedom – Update 24 August 2026

Week 29 is here, and this one is special.

For months, I've been putting just $2.50 per week into Bitcoin.

Last week I was incredibly close to my first major BTC milestone.

Today, it finally happened:

β‚Ώ 0.001 BTC ACHIEVED! πŸ†

No big purchase. No attempt to predict the market.

Just consistency.

My strategy remains unchanged:

80% VUG | 10% HIVE | 10% BTC


πŸ’° Week 29

Asset Price Buy Added
VUG $87.24 $20 0.22925
HIVE $0.04271 $2.50 58.53
BTC $79,619 $2.50 0.00003140

Weekly investment: $25 Total invested: $725


πŸ“Š My Portfolio

After today's purchases, my holdings are:

Asset Holdings Value
VUG 6.93413 $604.92
HIVE 1,243.75 $53.12
BTC 0.00101599 $80.89
TOTAL β€” $738.93

Total invested: $725.00

Current value: $738.93

Profit: +$13.93

Return: +1.92% πŸ“ˆ


πŸ† 0.001 BTC!

This is the milestone I've been waiting for.

Current Bitcoin holdings:

0.00101599 BTC

That may not sound like much.

But remember how we got here:

$2.50 at a time.

Bitcoin is now also worth approximately $80.89, compared with the $72.50 I've contributed to it.

That's approximately:

πŸ”₯ +$8.39

πŸ”₯ +11.57%

And this is exactly what I wanted this experiment to demonstrate.

Small amounts can become meaningful when given enough time.


πŸ‘€ Something Else Is About to Happen...

Bitcoin isn't our only milestone.

Look at VUG:

6.93413 / 7 shares

We're only about 0.066 shares away from owning 7.

And HIVE?

1,243.75 / 1,250 HIVE

Only about:

6.25 HIVE

away from our next target.

So Week 30 could potentially bring us two more milestones at the same time:

🎯 7 VUG shares

🎯 1,250 HIVE

After finally reaching 0.001 BTC this week, that would make Week 30 another very special update.


πŸ“ˆ Recent Progress

I'm going to make this table smaller from now on and focus on recent weeks instead of repeating the entire history every time.

Week Invested Portfolio
25 $625 $600.90
26 $650 $647.80
27 $675 $678.93
28 $700 $698.71
29 $725 $738.93

This is becoming interesting.

Just two weeks ago, the portfolio was almost exactly at break-even.

Today we're about $14 above the money invested.

But short-term profit isn't what excites me most.

The accumulation does.


πŸ“‰ Market Insight – Week 29

Bitcoin made the biggest move this week.

Last week:

BTC: $64,567

Today:

BTC: $79,619

That's a significant increase, and because I've been accumulating Bitcoin throughout the previous lower-price weeks, the BTC position has finally moved into profit.

Meanwhile, VUG continues doing exactly what I wanted it to do:

Providing the portfolio with a strong core.

HIVE remains the most difficult position, but its small 10% allocation limits its impact on the overall portfolio.

This is becoming one of the most interesting lessons from this experiment:

Asset selection matters, but allocation matters just as much.


🎯 New Targets

With 0.001 BTC officially achieved, it's time to move the goalposts.

🟒 VUG

Current: 6.93413 shares

🎯 Next target: 7 shares

99.1% complete

πŸ”΄ HIVE

Current: 1,243.75 HIVE

🎯 Next target: 1,250 HIVE

99.5% complete

🟠 BTC

Current: 0.00101599 BTC βœ…

πŸ† 0.001 BTC achieved

🎯 New target: 0.0015 BTC

And after that?

0.002 BTC.

One step at a time.


πŸ’¬ Final Thoughts

"Big milestones don't always require big investments. Sometimes they just require enough small ones."

Twenty-nine weeks.

$725 invested.

Today the portfolio is worth approximately:

$738.93

But more importantly, I now own:

🟒 6.93413 VUG shares

πŸ”΄ 1,243.75 HIVE

🟠 0.00101599 BTC

The first Bitcoin milestone is officially complete. πŸ†

And two more milestones are already waiting for us.

Week 30 could be a big one.

See you next week. πŸš€
