Average US Worker Now Requires Over One Year of Wages to Purchase One BTC

Data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics indicates that the average US private sector employee now needs over 12 months of full-time work to afford one BTC. While the cost remains high, it has decreased from the peak in July 2025, when it required 1.6 years of labor. The analysis tracks the wage-based cost of BTC since 2009, showing a steady increase in the time required for the average worker to accumulate a single coin.
