I'm by far not the most read on the subject. There are others with much more extensive understanding then I. But my rationale is as follows... If I want to save today's earnings for a future spend. Say 10-20 years down the road. As of the information we all have available to us today. Do I save in ...

The biggest risk to Bitcoin is ignorant bitcoiners blocking necessary upgraded because they fall for a psyop that it's not needed. I'm very confident in Bitcoin, but I still manage my risk, mainly so I can think soberly about it and not get too high on hopium.
