Have to be honest, I have a small portion of my portfolio (1-3%) in Bitcoin simply as a hedge against inflation. It's neither speculative nor novelty and has replaced a portion of what would typically be bond holdings. It seems companies and major asset holders are now considering the same.
I started like that, then it jumped, I recovered my cost basis plus expected inflation for years and taxes, and now it's more like 8/10% of my portfolio but I'm not touching it and I'll just see what happens. It was "free money" after all.
It's the second time I'm doing this, the first time I had to spend the money on moving but those were mostly mined coins.
Who is “we”? Outside of criminal enterprises, no one has ever used Bitcoin for anything other than speculation and the occasional novelty purchase.
