Glyph origin
Phono-semantic compound (形聲, OC *tʰaːd, *daːd) : semantic 辶 + phonetic 羍 (OC *tʰaːd).
Note that inner component is not 幸 – these are not related, and there is an extra stroke in 達 (two horizontal strokes at the bottom, not one).
Etymology
From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *dat (“live; alive”). Cognate with Tibetan སྡོད (sdod, “to stay; to sit; to live”) and Proto-Lolo-Burmese *dat (“alive”).

達 |
だち > たち Grade: 4 |
goon |
From Old Japanese. Appears in the Man'yōshū, completed some time after 759 CE.[4] The tachi reading is analyzed by some references[5] as kun'yomi or a native-Japanese reading. Alternatively, this has been understood as a shift from the goon reading of dachi.
Beyond Japanese, apparently related to Middle Korean ᄃᆞᆶ〮 (tólh, pluralizing particle) > Korean 들 (-deul, pluralizing particle), perhaps reflecting Old Korean */tatVk/ (Vovin 2010, p. 120), and thus not actually of Chinese origin. However, probably phonologically reinforced by the Sino-Japanese reading of Middle Chinese 達 (MC tʰɑt̚, dɑt̚).
