This comparison uses a bundled monthly historical snapshot through 2026-09-30, retrieved on 2026-10-03. It is not a live feed. Bitcoin uses BTC-USD, MSCI World uses the URTH ETF and S&P 500 uses the SPY ETF. All values use unadjusted USD closing prices; distributions are excluded.
Every series begins at an index value of 100. Percentage changes describe prices, not total investment returns. Drawdown is measured between monthly observations, which can miss larger losses within a month. The data loads with this site and requires no external connection or activation.
