Buying Bitcoin as an "investment" is like buying baseball cards or Beanie Babies as an "investment".

10 years later, millions of percents higher, still waiting for the final collapse to zero.

The utility of a Bitcoin approaches zero for nearly all of its purported uses. Unlike financial instruments, the underlying asset represented by Bitcoin has no intrinsic value.

Bitcoins are more like tulips, baseball cards or Beanie Babies than actual vehicles for investment.

I disagree on the nature of bitcoin, but FYI buying collectables can be a good investment strategy:

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll look into those!

AMD is trending better than NVDA currently.

Both can succeed...

If you are bullish on crypto, gaming, and AR/VR owning either or both is not a bad play...

NVDA I wouldn't touch until it can break $166~ with high volume.
