No trading, simple dollar cost averaging. Yes, short term it is volatile. Zoom out and look at the yearly chart of BTC and have your own thinking where the world is heading with insane helicopter money the next years.

Careful with altcoins though, they are NOT decentralized and can change the narrative and code via hard forks and I therefore do not really trust them long term (best example ETH and Vitalik Buterin who did several hard forks over the years)

Hey all! I’m 30 years old. About to close on a house with a 5.75% fixed 30 yr mortgage. If you were me and your goal was to maximize your net worth by retirement, would you put a few thousand dollars extra into paying down the house faster or invest that extra money in the market? The 5.75% doesn’t feel that low but also not crazy high so I’m torn. Thoughts? 🙏
