On the other hand, if we wanted to test his 3900% yearly return, we might assume that monkey returns are equal in distribution to Bitcoin's price and then test the hypothesis that he's a monkey via something like a paired t-test. The problem here is that we only have one data point so p-value is undefined, and due to high variance it would probably take about n=10 points to get something significant. The upside of this approach is that you can get a confidence interval for how much better he is than a monkey, instead of just a yes/no answer.
In any case, since the author has at least 365 data points, he probably has an extremely good idea of both a) whether he's a monkey, and b) how much better he is than a monkey.
