Not more than 20%, I don't want to take a long-term risk whether bitcoin will be accepted by the market or not, March proved when there was an economic crash the downturn was so great, and now this makes me put more money into safer instruments, portfolios I have already made, including bitcoin, get that portion  Smiley. the increase or profit in altcoin is also large, in my opinion, the capital does not need to be too large. we can develop if we can see the market
I think you should have more than 20% to invest in bitcoin, and not use too big money to invest in an altcoin. And you can hold your bitcoin for a long time, and do not need to panic if you see the price is down because that is your advantage to buy more bitcoin than before. The altcoin can give you a profit but I do not think that the altcoin will be good for a long term investment because it follows bitcoin price moves. The money you want to use will be good if you know how much you can afford to invest in crypto.

If I didn't have the necessities of life to be honest I would like to invest all of my assets in bitcoin but yes, that's not possible. That way, I'll only invest when I have money to spend and also, every bubble is bound to burst because if it's not a bubble then of course that won't make it burst or crash. This year could be a good trend for bitcoin or the cryptocurrency market as a whole, with bitcoin still struggling to get back above 40k so this could be a good time if I'm willing to take the risk.

My answer to your question would be this, I always put half of my earnings per week in Bitcoin. Let's say I earn $100 per week, then I would put the $50 on it and I'll save the rest of my fiat in my pocket to buy some food and my other daily needs. My parents always tell me that I should put it in the bank, but I always says no and explain to them why ai prefer it to invest in Bitcoin.

After the recent bull run that doubles the ATH we had in 2017, my parents also wants to learn how this stuff works. I already told them the basics and it seems that they are really interested.

Good for you showing your parents the results of your investment, bringing  them in and have interest on their own. It's really nice to see that

those people whom you love are also showing support and interest after seeing results, They will learn from how you work with your

investment, and it will be much lesser risk for them since they have you to guide them while learning much deeper knowledge about this

market.

I am pretty sure he doesn't mean "will there be few more bitcoins" as in, will it stop at 21 million or will it be more. I think it means "will there be things that are as big as bitcoin?" which is the important question here.

I doubt that it will be as big as bitcoin if you ask me, sure there are tons of stuff but none of them are as good as bitcoin and there will be nothing as good as bitcoin neither, I just think it is obvious that we are in a bitcoin world and all other cryptos would have to just wait for it to go up. Not saying that other cryptos will go down or anything, they will go up too, I just think that they will not go up to levels of bitcoin. Even ethereum needs what? Times five of what it is today to reach bitcoin? And that is the second biggest one, others need even more WHILE bitcoin not moving upside a single cent, I doubt that will happen.

The Bitcoin protocol has to be changed with a majority "vote" for there to be more bitcoins and that will never happen. (The moment when the Supply is increased, people who owns bitcoins now will take a massive knock with the price going down as a result of that decision... so no miner/full node will "vote" for that.

Bitcoin is not a "Bubble" .....so you have to do a bit more research about this currency/commodity to understand this technology. (Supply & Demand)  Wink

I don't think that it is a bubble. One of the reasons is that unlike the other pumps that happened, this year seems to have that cemented support since there is a lot of adoption that happened. The fact that there are companies that already investing in this crypto currency, means that there will be a higher chance of adoption of it in the future.

Assuming that it's a bubble, then it has to burst soon.
Not necessarily--bubbles can go on for years, you know.  Just look at the internet stock bubble circa 1995-2000, and that's just one of many that went on for a long time.

But what's the question here: whether we're in a bubble or how much our total asset portfolio should be in bitcoin?  If it's the latter, I'd say around 5%, but only if you can afford to take that amount of risk in the first place.  It's not as though bitcoin is an historically stable investment.  If you're a young person with a good (and stable) job, you could probably invest more than 5% and not have it sting if bitcoin crashes--but you've got to have the stomach for it either way, because owning bitcoin is like riding a roller coaster.

I don't keep anywhere near 5% of my measly investment money in bitcoin, even though I'm a fan of it.  I'm a bit older and can't afford to lose what I've got.
You're wise in deciding that it shouldn't go more than 5% with the factor of your age. I've seen the same thought of how much they would invest depending on their status, age, and take on bitcoin. I wasn't able to witness the internet stock bubble during those years because I was still young by that time, it's a great share of history to know about it. Thanks.

As per coinmarketcap.com, the total bitcoins mined is 18,603,550 which leads to a remaining unmined bitcoins of 2.3M. Considering that bitcoin is a limited supply cryptocurrency, that's already a very few amount while it's starting to become known worldwide. But due to halving, it is slowing down which is assumed the last bitcoin will be mined by 2140.
You also have to consider the lost coins because there seems to be a lot floating around the void never to be seen again.
Yup, those lost coins forever make bitcoin rarer.

Assuming that it's a bubble, then it has to burst soon. But with its adoption rate that we see based from the news and the scenario that we had right now, I doubt it that it's a bubble.
Not all bubbles burst really fast, considering the waves in the bitcoin market back then with all the sharp turns and curves, I think that in a way it is a bubble.
Yup, that's what I've just learned earlier with what I've quoted above. I thought of it as not a bubble since the "assumed bubble on 2017" has burst and since a year ago, we've been down. With all the news of adoption, fundamentals, and acceptance of the society on it, that sums up to the natural growth of it.

I'll answer the title of the thread, 95% of my savings are in Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin.
After paying my bills and living expenses, everything else goes into Bitcoin.

I have other assets which are staying as they are but for FIAT I put as much
as I can into Bitcoin and have been doing that for a few years.

By few more bitcoins being available in the future, you meant that more bitcoins are going to be mined in the future, right? Yeah, that is true but it is not like there is going to be infinite supply. And don't forget, the amount of coins that can be mined are also halved every four years, so the supply is also declined as time passes.
If "you" think this is a bubble, then don't invest. If I were you thinking it is a bubble, i would never invest anything that i wouldn't be able to afford. But, if I were planning for long term investment, then I would invest significant amount since I know in the long run the price will increase. Many medium to large scale companies are also doing this!

BTC supply is very limited and its supply is lesser than what we see right now. Many bitcoin lost in their early stages when many devs just mine it to test what it is. They didn't think its price will be that much higher so they just left those bitcoin. Also, many investors lost their bitcoin along with the device they kept that into. So we can see shortages of bitcoin due to its high demands.

Guess your topic title came up as a result of you thinking of this words above. Well you can be rest assured that, there won't be more than 21million bitcoins circulating in the market. Instead there'll be lost of some of the total supply as a result of the careless nature of humans and others will be held off exchanges by holders in the form of institutional investors and retail investors. The above scenario will result to the scarcity of bitcoin in the market which will contribute effectivity to the soar in price of the assest.

You don't have to be scared but that doesn't mean you should go investing an aspect of your assets that you won't be comfortable losing. The market is very volatile therefore don't go above your limit. Sure the market can crash down anything that's a possibility your optimistic shouldn't cloud. Anything is possible, although bitcoin can't be hacked but we have different theory going around which might just cause harm if they were to be possible but only time will tell.

With each passing day, the market is starting to stabilize, and BTC is also gradually dropping in value, which is to be expected. It seems to me that Bitcoin will drop to about $ 20K. I do not recommend investing in cryptocurrency now, as the market is expected to fall gradually.

I see a different perspective here. With each passing years, Btc has been constantly gaining value and of course popularity. What makes you think Bitcoin is stabilizing?
If Btc is about to drop down to $20k, It should've happened already during a huge drop from $40k down to $32k. But Btc somehow showed it's strength, institutional and retail investors are still accumulating even with the price this high.

Why do you think these big companies and big names in financial industry are stacking more Bitcoins today? Is it because Bitcoin will gradually dropping it's value?

It is depending on the funds I have because I don't have any job and any skills in trading which I want to learn. I only invest by actually buying and holding it for such time that it will rise in terms of value. My asset depends on the movement of the value of bitcoin itself and also depending on the length of the timeline that I bought it. If I bought it for a long time and sold it at a price right now, it is a high profit for me. I am planning to buy again, I am just waiting for the time that the price falls a little bit.

Hm.40% of my salary is for bitcoin investment, another 20% is for altcoins. I can live perfectly with the remain 40% cause I do not need much thing in my daily life. I will invest them in the future.

There are currently more than 2.3 million bitcoin left to be mine and those bitcoins will run out at 2140. So we have more than a hundred years

and there will be a possibility that the bubble will burst?
People assume bitcoin is a big bubble. But as long as we are the pioneer in investing in bitcoin and its technologies, there is nothing to be afraid of. We will not suffer a huge loss like people obsessed with FOMO. Be patient and trust your bitcoin

10% of your net worth seems like a sweet spot for an extremely risky asset. Less than 10% would make you a bit more conservative, and more than that would make you more aggressive. With 10%, you will get a nice return if the price goes up, and won't cry too much if the price goes down.

It is possible that there will be a few more bitcoins in the future
On average, every 10 minutes, a few Bitcoins are mined, so yes, there will be more Bitcoins over time until we reach max supply.
But if it is about changing max supply, the possibility is extremely slim.

there will be a possibility that the bubble will burst?
Yes.

Depends on; how much of your total assets, how much you have to spend each month, how much your income/month, and how long are you planning to hold bitcoin. There is no definitive answer for everyone, as we have a different situation. Let's calculate from the expenses every month, at least you must have sufficient funds to cover expenses for the next 1 year without income in case something goes wrong. Assume if your total asset is $200k, expenses/month $7k, income $10k, then preserve $84k as savings for 1 year, invest 50% or $100k in bitcoin if you want to hold it for a year or less. We know bitcoin will reach at least $100k by the end of the year, right?  Cheesy

Bitcoin is worth holding but I cant state the amount in percentage I can recommend for holding. I cant hold bitcoin longer into the bull market without taking profit. The whales may do that because of what they have but small holders will need to cashout and buy back in the bear. Less than 6 million bitcoin is traded in the market now, more bitcoin has not been moved, large some has been lost with key and life of owners.

"Expected to fall gradually"? Where did you get that from? - Maybe you are the one who "expects" that, but you should not generalise. The next time please try and make it clear that it is your sole opinion.

With the current rampage of institutions into the crypto space and especially Bitcoin I don't see strong arguments to be bearish. I mean the higher timeframes still look rock-solid from my personal analysis.

I don't think that Bitcoin is a bubble. Tulips were a bubble, but Bitcoin is actually an attractive candidate for replacing Gold and our financial system based on fiat.
Bitcoin is a type of crypto that takes a bit of a time to skyrocket, but when it does, it goes up like crazy. We witnessed this in the 2017 and 2020 ATHs where it topped at $19,000 and $40,000 respectively. With this information in mind, I grew to understand that my bitcoin investment should still take a considerable amount off of my allotted cash for investment, but not too much that it would cause me to fall short on my other assets. Something around 10-20% of your overall total assets should at least comprise of bitcoin. And be minded that this money should as much as possible be kept intact and not be sold to make the most out of bitcoin.
