Even before diving headfirst down the rabbit hole, it only took 4 pieces of information to convince me that I needed to own some bitcoin and hold it in my own wallet. It isn't rocket science:

1) The total supply of bitcoin—21M.

2) The total number of millionaires in the world—currently ~60M.

3) The logical assumption that people who are already wealthy will eventually want to own anything that has performed like this (chart 👇) against the dollar.

4) A very basic understanding of the effects of supply & demand on the price of anything.
