    1. Most people start with a mix, but the more you learn about Bitcoin, the more your ‘allocation’ tends to go toward 100%. It’s the only asset with absolute scarcity. Just make sure you have an emergency fund in cash so you never have to sell your BTC

    2. I used to have several cryptocurrencies, but I exchanged them all for Bitcoin. It’s the only asset that can truly outperform it. I mine Ravecoin and Digobyte and exchange them for Bitcoin.

      I’m not so much diversified, as I am an ADHD Autistic who treats money like he does hobbies.

      Hey, look at this cool new shiny thing over here…

      I wouldn’t have nearly as much Bitcoin as I do if I had only invested in Bitcoin, so no I still keep a diversified portfolio to take advantage of multiple markets

      My end goal is to accumulate as much Bitcoin as possible, which is the goal of many here, and the better way to achieve that is buying stocks and stock options as well that can produce larger returns on shorter time horizons. Then I take those profits and rotate them into Bitcoin for the long haul. I also take advantage of tax advantaged retirement accounts (with FBTC and IBIT included within those accounts) and matching still too, which is just easy money

    5. I can’t tell you how diversified you should be, but I can tell you that I am fairly consolidated myself. I don’t own a single share of S&P, Nasdaq, or any major index. I just don’t like the idea of being in only one asset, “just in case”, so I put my money in several baskets but my portfolio is pretty focused oh high-conviction plays that I understand and keep track of.

      I wouldn’t have as much BTC as I do now if I diversified. I lost my job a year ago and still currently live of the standard.

    7. I personally diversify-mostly crypto, some stocks and ETFs. Helps reduce risk if one market tanks.

      Sure. 25-30% btc. Depends on ur capital though. If you have less, you might be interested in purely crypto. Regardless regular income helps. If you dca into one solid asset like btc, that’s also a form of time diversification.

      Bear in mind that some people saying ‘I’m 100% in on bitcoin’ will be talking about a few hundred quid. 

    10. Buying and stocking up on the best currency ever created by mankind

      OR

      Remaining subject to a global scam that steals my work hours and the value I generated via inflation?

      I know my pick.

      Diversify. Anyone telling you not to is either too young or blinded by their returns to give legitimate advice. Diversification adds another layer of security to your investments, guaranteeing you don’t lose everything if a hit happens. Maybe Bitcoin will always trend up, but what if your ability to sell it changes, or it drops when you need money for a huge medical procedure. Diversification prevents that from harming you.

      Now as to how diversified? I don’t really know. It would likely largely depend on your cashflow / income and its liquidity. I just know anyone who says 100% is full of BS.

    12. 50% FRNs (TFLO) 33% The S&P500 (VOO) 15% gold 2% bitcoin (ibit) would be what I’d do if I was starting fresh and didn’t want to generate anything but beta by just buying what investors watch.

      What I’m probably at is more like… 25% TLT 25% bitcoin 25% gold 25% equities -25% real estate
