If you have more than a million in investments, have you purchased BITCOIN in any form? if so how much?

[Anonymous]

It's little strange to have a portfolio where a chunk of it is the financial equivalent of a fantasy football team.

Index funds would automatically own MSTR and such.

Ewww, gross.

Vanguard owns 10% of Microstrategy MSTR!

What happen when MSTR screws up and loses their wallets?

I won some Bitcoin in a contest or charity thing a few years ago. I don't know how much I have exactly, but the app tells me it is currently worth $583.42, so I can't imagine the amount I have is very much. I have no interest in buying more or doing anything with this bit I have.

You probably want to study up on BIP39 and multisig wallets so as to not sound so much like bumpkin here.

MSTR buys BTC on margin loans so it's extremely volatile.

In our 50s. $9M total NW, $8M invested. None in crypto.

Right. Saying the tech buzzwords protects the grifters from mistakes in handling their magic Internet money.

That sounds like a scam.

I’m over 50. I have no interest in buying it directly. First of all it is the Wild West with fraud and poor regulation. Second it has no intrinsic worth. It is only useful to sell to the next speculator.

After it jumps the people who talk about wanting to buy are showing their financial ignorance.

In my 40s, and no bitcoin. I'm prohibited from investing in it. I'm only allowed to hold index funds in a blind trust.

Sometimes I feel like I'm missing out on the greatest investment instrument of the 21st century but mostly I'm relieved. It seems pretty stressful to invest in Bitcoin, and I don't have time to watch the markets like that

Late 40s. Just over $1mil invested. No crypto.

No interest in it. I'm not wealthy enough to invest in something that volatile.

And let's be real. Those making the most noise about crypto aren't the people who share my philosophy or lifestyle.

Late 50s, $3mil. A small part of this is COIN and MSTR which give indirect exposure to crypto.

Currently up about 8x and have $100k total in crypto long in BTC, ADA, ETH, LTC and DOT.

I voted Harris and I think Trump is horrible for the US overall but is undeniably good for crypto so I'll take what I can get.

Not investing advice but I believe that crypto overall will peak in 2025 and likely pull back some in 2026/27 so my plan is to take profits and get back in on the dip.

Personally, I think buying in now seems like too much of a FOMO driven buy and thus not a good idea. Wait until there's blood on the floor and get in on a discount.
