Bitcoin is the fastest growing asset class of the last couple of years and has attracted lots of attention, first from retail investors and more recently with the influx of institutional funds. As a Bitcoin discussion forum there are lots of people here who are very enthusiastic about Bitcoin and the potential it has. Following Bitcoin discussions on social media as well, there is a lot of hype around it, influencer accounts are springing up everywhere advising people to, keep stacking and keep holding as we launch to the moon.

The possible problem:
Amidst all the hype and fomo, is it possible we may have abandoned risk management in our acquisition of Bitcoin? We've had reports about individuals literally selling everything to buy Bitcoin and tweets about using loans to purchase as well.
I understand that crypto Twitter is not the best place to get investment advise, but it could be a reflection of general sentiment. People who have identified Bitcoin as the innovation of the future could fear not holding enough and possibly acquire more than they can afford to lose.

Is this really a problem:
Some would argue that Bitcoin has established itself over the years and always recovered value lost, backing it up with the price, as we are at an all time high range and everyone who has ever bought Bitcoin at any price is certainly in profit (except you bought at the quick spike above $23.5k) and if you have lost, it is because you didn't hodl long enough.
There are some who have the idea that it's actually a risk not to hold Bitcoin, as whatever alternative asset you're holding would not give you as much security and ROI.

Follow up:
• What percentage would you consider safe to invest in BTC? (This is regardless of how much you actually hold).
• With your idea of the Bitcoin network would you consider it shrewd for one to aggressively purchase it and possiby risk more than they can afford to lose?
• Which of these assets would you rather have majority of your funds in: Bitcoin, Gold or Fiat?

*The poll above is to have a broad idea of how deep btt users have their feet in the pool as this is the largest Bitcoin discussion forum..
