I’ve been converted to a bitcoin advocate

At the end of 2024 I was very against bitcoin and anything that had to do with bitcoin because I was one of those NPC’s who just though “fake money no value terrible investment” but starting at the beggining of this year I started to do more research here and through other reddits and I’ve been fully converted. Bitcoin is a great investment and I hope that Bitcoin can completely decouple from stocks to be more of a safe haven when the dollar falls (kinda like how gold moves) and there is chaos and uncertainty in the markets. I have a little bit of actual bitcoin now but 20% of my portfolio now (will probably increase it to 30%) is IBIT because I truly believe bitcoin will continue to out perform and outpace most stocks and ETFs. But I have you all to thank here for knocking some sense into me and making me curious to do the deep dive and full research on why Bitcoin is a great long term investment. Now whenever I get the chance I preach to people they should have some kind of Bitcoin exposure in their portfolio whether it be through and ETF like IBIT or just holding Bitcoin directly or in a cold wallet. I’m still learning more and more but I now believe Bitcoin could be the future and more and more will start to adapt to it. submitted by /u/AmbitiousSkirt2 [link] [comments]
