Like a stock, you can buy and hold Bitcoin as an investment. You can even now do so in special retirement accounts called Bitcoin IRAs. No matter where you choose to hold your Bitcoin, peopleâs philosophies on how to invest it vary: Some buy and hold long term, some buy and aim to sell after a price rally, and others bet on its price decreasing. Bitcoinâs price over time has experienced big price swings, going as low as $5,165 and as high as $28,990 in 2020 alone. âI think in some places, people might be using Bitcoin to pay for things, but the truth is that itâs an asset that looks like itâs going to be increasing in value relatively quickly for some time,â Marquez says. âSo why would you sell something thatâs going to be worth so much more next year than it is today? The majority of people that hold it are long-term investors.â
Should You Buy Bitcoin?
In general, many financial experts support their clientsâ desire to buy cryptocurrency, but they donât recommend it unless clients express interest. âThe biggest concern for us is if someone wants to invest in crypto and the investment they choose doesnât do well, and then all of a sudden they canât send their kids to college,â says Ian Harvey, a certified financial planner (CFP) in New York City. âThen it wasnât worth the risk.â The speculative nature of cryptocurrency leads some planners to recommend it for clientsâ âsideâ investments. âSome call it a Vegas account,â says Scott Hammel, a CFP in Dallas. âLetâs keep this away from our real long-term perspective, make sure it doesnât become too large a portion of your portfolio.â In a very real sense, Bitcoin is like a single stock, and advisors wouldnât recommend putting a sizable part of your portfolio into any one company. At most, planners suggest putting no more than 1% to 10% into Bitcoin if youâre passionate about it. âIf it was one stock, you would never allocate any significant portion of your portfolio to it,â Hammel says.
