When I think about the appropriate allocation to Bitcoin, I have conflicting thoughts.

It feels like I am the only student in the class who has been given the answer key to an important test. If I know the solutions to the problems, why wouldn’t I answer 100% of the questions correctly. However, it feels wrong/risky/unfair/too easy.

Anyone else wrestling with this?

To me it’s a measure (ratio) of how much one requires (at their current stage) of fiat revenue vs expenses.

Solutions like Strike and Spritz Finance reduce the barriers to going 100% BTC.

Yet some people’s lives and businesses can’t make the 100% leap yet so it has to be done in micro steps.

Factors that affect me from going 100% BTC are:

A. Family…wife isn’t 100% on board with BTC yet.

B. Clients in our businesses aren’t ready to pay in BTC yet

C. Due to our lawful structure, Strike won’t accept us as a customer

D. Our local church doesn’t regularly accept “crypto” as a method of tithing

So these factors together create a few more roadblocks for us to go 100% BTC.

Our solution? We micro-step. As our BTC balance grows we will be able to rely on fiat less and less (as our Bitcoin will cover the difference) and thus increase the amount stored in BTC each period.

I’m not looking to completely abandon fiat, banks. My question/struggle is with allocation of investable assets, savings.

If there is no second best, why diversify? That’s what Saylor is telling me on one shoulder.

All of trad-fi is on my other shoulder shouting FUD.

I’m not a “all or nothing” guy. But I am a “put it on a FEW strong horses”.

So I strategically diversify.

That being said, in 2024 my trade portfolio (a hobby for me) would have been way better off sitting in BTC.

So I’m beginning to see even in my own portfolio how the “there’s no second best” mantra is true.

In short: wisdom demands prudence
