The creators of Niffler.co – a simulated cryptocurrency exchange for new and experienced crypto traders have developed a unique calculator that allows you to easily calculate how quickly you can accumulate one Bitcoin if you quit smoking today.
According to the calculator, a smoker from the United States who smokes 1 pack of cigarettes per day would be able to buy Bitcoin with the money saved over 1 year, 4 months, 25 days after giving up the bad habit. This calculation is based on the current BTC market price of $3597.00 (at the time of writing this article). The calculator does not attempt to predict future Bitcoin price or account for the volatility of the asset. Please note that calculator allows you to enter your personal cigarette consumption (packs per day) to give a more accurate estimation based on individual smoking habits.
The country with the fastest possible route to acquiring one Bitcoin based on their cost of a pack of cigarettes is Australia – it only takes 5 months, 28 days based on the current market situation. Interestingly enough, at the bottom of the list sits Venezuela, where quitting smoking would take you almost a decade to convert into one Bitcoin.
The calculator has gone viral on Twitter with the hashtag #quitsmokingforbtc and has received a lot of positive reactions from the crypto community. The creators of the interactive infographic stated, that the goal is to attract more people to learn about Bitcoin and maybe play a role in helping reverse the downtrend in the crypto space that started in early 2018.
Regardless of whether or not you use the calculator to acquire Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, it never hurts to quit smoking. But if you do smoke and decided to quit and use this calculator as your starting point, you are not only one step closer to financial freedom, but light years ahead to a healthier lifestyle.
