Good insights on 4% allocation - just for diversification. Ppl shouldn’t allocate too much into bitcoin, anyway it is just one asset type

It’s quite scary to see how the price has shot ip. It would have been nicer if it went up slowly ...

At this point, our belief is: Bitcoin is not a question of if, but when,” Meltem Demirors, chief strategy officer at digital asset investment firm CoinShares, said Monday.\n“We certainly believe, you know, the best time to invest in bitcoin was yesterday — the second best time to allocate is today,” she told CNBC’s “Squawk Box Asia.”\nHer comments came after bitcoin recently toppled another milestone,pushing past $1 trillion in market value last week, according to Coindesk.\nBitcoin has been on a tear since the start of 2021, and has risen more than 90% so far this year, according to data from Coin Metrics. Those strong gains have been attributed in part to increased adoption of bitcoin by major investors and companies, including Elon Musk’s Tesla and the Bank of New York Mellon.\nBitcoin last sat at $56,355.50 per coin as of 1:26 a.m. ET Monday.\nStill, Demirors warned that investors should not be allocating “significant portions of their balance sheet” to bitcoin.\n“Our research has found that in a traditional 60-40 portfolio, a 4% allocation to bitcoin balances the reward as well as the risk of drawdowns,” she said. The 60% stock and 40% bond portfolio is traditionally a popular allocation strategy designed to generate steady income while guarding against volatility.\nBitcoin a ‘failed currency’?\nAswath Damodaran from New York University was far more skeptical about investing in bitcoin.\n“This is an ... incredible show to watch. But it’s definitely not an investment,” Damodaran, a professor of finance at NYU’s Stern School of Business, told CNBC’s “Street Signs Asia” on Friday.\n“If it’s a currency, it’s a ... horrifically bad currency,” he said, adding that bitcoin “seems to be primarily a speculative game” that has “behaved like a very risky stock.”\n“It’s not an asset class. It’s a failed currency, at least into this moment,” Damodaran said. “Let’s see whether they can fix it because ... I don’t think that they have an incentive to do so.”","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":369688462,"gmtCreate":1614039676056,"gmtModify":1704887174019,"author":{"id":"3565253685310367","authorId":"3565253685310367","name":"Xxiiaode","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/49227d36a02c46c13f9d970f14f5c92c","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3565253685310367","authorIdStr":"3565253685310367"},"htmlText":"Go&nbsp;","listText":"Go&nbsp;","text":"Go","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/369688462","repostId":1170294180,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":369873634,"gmtCreate":1614035236328,"gmtModify":1704887102528,"author":{"id":"3576715201579312","authorId":"3576715201579312","name":"btc8","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d556bc3f22f4ab4be4a08b93eadb9e8c","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3576715201579312","authorIdStr":"3576715201579312"},"htmlText":"True","listText":"True","text":"True","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/369873634","repostId":1170294180,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":369193224,"gmtCreate":1614006975968,"gmtModify":1704886868962,"author":{"id":"3567151834562262","authorId":"3567151834562262","name":"jere09","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1f87201729ff5ad1f67d90d43500e233","vip":1,"crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3567151834562262","authorIdStr":"3567151834562262"},"htmlText":"WadNews is&nbsp;Breaking&nbsp;","listText":"WadNews is&nbsp;Breaking&nbsp;","text":"WadNews is Breaking","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/369193224","repostId":1170294180,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":369395193,"gmtCreate":1614003404212,"gmtModify":1704886745079,"author":{"id":"3572410425439543","authorId":"3572410425439543","name":"GMJ","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d01f478c3a55fff76ad0c296637f8ea1","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3572410425439543","authorIdStr":"3572410425439543"},"htmlText":"Good insights on 4% allocation - just for diversification.
