I agree that you study the amount that you want to study. However the amount of conviction you have in bitcoin is directly correlated with the amount of time spent learning it and adjacent topics (finance, history, politics). The more you study Bitcoin the more you realize its importance and its value.
A lay person only studying enough to use it and not studying more is the difference between them putting 1% of their money in Bitcoin and 100% of their money in Bitcoin.
That being said, fixating on the price is stupid.
