Matt Hougan, CIO of Bitwise Asset Management ($10B AUM) discusses about investing in crypto. Here is some glimpse from the video <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcD4S7mNbE8" rel="nofollow ugc">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcD4S7mNbE8</a>
Investing in crypto basic rules: 
80/20 Rule: Keep 80% in long-term, safe allocations (Bitcoin, ETH, maybe top assets). Use 20% for speculative plays.
Index approach wins: In traditional finance, index funds beat 70–96% of active managers. In crypto, indexing top quality coins works too.
Time, not timing: Wealth comes from holding for years, not chasing quick flips.
Crypto = “Get rich slow” and “Get wrecked quick”.

Bitcoin strategy is required for banks too!

Bitcoin first caught my attention in 2016 when I saw an author asking for donations in it. I got curious and read one sentence: &#8220;Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer electronic cash system.&#8221; I misunderstood it, thinking it worked like regular online payment systems. Then in 2017, the ICO boom happened, but I still didn’t take the time to really learn about it.

At the time, I thought Bitcoin was too expensive and didn’t realize I could buy just a small piece of it. These misunderstandings cost me a lot.

So, my advice is: don’t worry about the price at first—take time to understand how Bitcoin works. In the crypto world, there will be moments when your knowledge of Bitcoin will really be tested.

Bitwise, a leading name in crypto asset management, has unveiled its ambitious 2025 price predictions for major cryptocurrencies:

One strategy that has worked for me is buying Bitcoin and holding it for years. Many people view Bitcoin as a get-rich-quick scheme, but in reality, it&#8217;s a powerful savings technology. Its inherent design empowers ordinary individuals to save without the fear of inflation or government interference devaluing their currency. While gold has served as a store of value for centuries, it has limitations like lack of portability and divisibility. Bitcoin addresses these issues and is emerging as a superior alternative to gold as a store of value.

Bitcoin may look boring as there is no major price action happening. It is consolidating in 65-70K range. But, we should also look at the demand of Bitcoin ETF. Total of 12600 BTC was purchased on 4th June using Bitcoin ETF. As the demand of Bitcoin is sky rocketing, price appreciation will follow.

Bitcoin halving is finally approaching. Block halving events occur every four years or after 210,000 blocks on the Bitcoin blockchain. Initially, Bitcoin&#8217;s block reward was 50 BTC. Presently, the block reward stands at 6.25 BTC, with the next reward set to decrease to 3.125 BTC. This systematic reduction in rewards decreases the pace at which new Bitcoins are created, as the halving process is pre-programmed into Bitcoin&#8217;s underlying code. 
Historically, the halving has brought a big bull run in Bitcoin history. In last cycle, Bitcoin had halving on May 2020 and the price was 8602 $. It reached 56 705 $ after a year. I think this time is no different and there will be bull run around. Act accordingly.

I started looking into Bitcoin since 2019 and observing market since then. Here I will express my views on Bitcoin based on my prior experience. Any view should not be considered as a financial advice.
