Yes Bitcoin is a learning curve and you can put in $10 before you understand much about it.

But would you go all in on Bitcoin if you only understood the basics.

Risk is not what you think risk is. Risk is an inability to judge naivety.

Those who don't understand Bitcoin, believe Bitcoin is risky.

Those who study Bitcoin know Bitcoin has nearly zero risk.

Nobody but Saylor and perhaps a few board members understand $MSTR because, despite it being a public company, only a small part of it is made public.

In my company Densitron, we always knew what the company was and what it was doing and shareholders never did. They can't, they have never spent even a single day inside the company.

Nobody outside the boardroom of a private or public company understands any company.

So I'll ask again, and I'm trying to make you think rather than just give me a stock answer, beyond $10, or a few hundred, or a few thousand, depending on your wealth and personal risk (naivety) level, would you go all in on something you don't understand?

Then the next question, would you put any money in if you knew you didn't understand.

I believe, if you're answering yes to any question above, then this is risk and this is naivety and this means there is little difference between investing in a public company or $HAWK, or Enron or credit default swaps.

However, if the world worked on that model, there would be no investment industry, nothing would get produced and no human technological evolution would happen.

Therefore risk, naivety, is part of the normal investing world.

Bitcoin is different, for me at least.

On I definitely wouldn't go all in without knowing what I was getting into. But that's the you asked. You asked if I would suggest investing in Bitcoin before they understood it. And my answer remains. Yes, I would recommend it. But I'd also teach them and make myself available to answer their questions similar to what I described in my prior response. I wouldn't tell them to sell all their investments and put it all in Bitcoin within the next 24 hours. I'd give them the basics, and help them make their first purchase. And I'd talk about DCA investing, and show them how to make additional purchases when they're ready. And I'd help them learn all about it for as long as they wanted my help.

That's perfect and I would do the same.

But $MSTR you're never going to know anything beyond the basics because it's a closed system.

Yeah, I would never invest in that, or recommend it to others. I don't really understand how they operate, and I'd never recommend something that I didn't fully understand myself. It's one thing to experiment with your own money, but quite another to recommend it to someone else.

Agreed 💯
