Yes.

Anyone who says otherwise hasn’t done the research. Tbh, wouldn’t take investment advice from people who haven’t done the research on crypto. They are just noise. Not very difficult to see where things are heading if you just put in the work. HODL

Honestly it is easy to see why gen Z is so jaded. The market just keeps going up. The fed just keeps printing money of thin air. Prices of everything is rising yet their outdated methodology (and likely bs) inflation metrics all show no problem.

Yet you can see bitcoin and eth and every single transaction on chain. Incredible fundamentals on many coins.

I’ve never sold retirement or stocks for bitcoin but I’ve certainly dumped plenty of money into crypto. And by far it’s been one of the best investments (short and long term ).

Considered it - it was a very short thought lol. Seems like unnecessary risk

Yes I’ve noticed the spread - huge. Agree that it makes trading less attractive.

But if I just want to hold my cash here with the 9% while it is available, seems logical? No spread on their USDC.

Def not, but I have started adding crypto to my investments as it’s something that is not going away and should be a part of every diversified portfolio

This is the wise response in this thread

Yes, I sold all my stocks for crypto.

I agree

Been dollar cost averaging my way into BTC and ETH for the past year or so, obviously it’s paid off. I have >50% of my total investments in crypto and I plan on keeping it this way. At this point, I don’t think any arguments saying crypto is useless carry much weight because that’s not what matters. You have more and more large companies purchasing BTC for their treasuries. You have famous people starting to take pay in BTC. At the end of the day, things like this are based in their story, not the fundamentals.

I've been buying as well last couple months. And will continue to buy and hold. The hope is in 2-3 years it will explode like bitcoin and we can all celebrate. But need to have patience and not look at it everyday.

Not selling equities but will start investing more into ethereum 💪🏻

“It’s gone straight up for 5 years and therefore will keep going up” is not a long-term investment plan and has lost a lot of fortunes historically. Increasing adoption of crypto has been priced into major currencies for a long time.

If you have a strong investment thesis for a particular currency and still think it’s attractive at present valuation, go ahead and allocate some of your portfolio to it. But I’m not endorsing a 50% allocation to anything—if you choose to do that and lose your shirt, 🤷‍♂️

Today... yes! It’s looking grim for stocks right now.

Yep, that’s why it’s best to trade stocks with high volume low float. And I agree it’s hard as all get up.

Hi All,

I have a situation in front of me. I got an offer from small company or we could say startup company Uzio (pdt based) and my manager in current company didn't revert back with any retaining offer. It's been a month and 27 days left in np.
My dilemma is that my current team including reporting manager are very rude and not supportive. I don't want to work in this project. But if I join in that startup company, there's a risk as everyone is talking about recession, firing. Suggestions?

It’s sometimes tough figuring out retirement plans as a creative freelancer where financial conversations within my community are limited. I’m 35 and wish I had done everything sooner — backdoor Roth IRA, HSA, 401k etc. Better late than never I guess :)
