By the amount of media coverage of cryptocurrencies and blockchain, you could be forgiven in thinking everyone is invested in crypto. But you would be wrong. It's still very much a niche activity, but that is changing fast. It seems likely that crypto will become a mainstream investment asset over time in some form or another.
While there is a general consensus that blockchain is a critical technology for the future with an incredibly broad potential application, the most energy seems to be spent on commentary and analysis of its use as an investment. Opinions run strong on this and especially this year where we have seen incredible volatility in Bitcoin, Dogecoin and others.
We recognize that it's hard to get investment professionals to agree on any particular asset class, allocation, investment strategy or individual holding. For every article written in support, there are just as many attacking that point of view and providing an alternative. This is especially true of cryptocurrencies so you need to accept that the extreme volatility we have experienced may well continue and that there is potential for gains and losses so buyer beware. Only invest what you are comfortable with for what is considered a high risk investment.
