The close relative you describe is a speculator, not an investor. It's no different than someone who bought Enron stock in 1990 and then sold out in 2000 before the company collapsed in the midst of its financial scandal.

Six months from now I'd like you to tell us about the "close relative" who bought Bitcoin at $57,000.

Sorry, you are off by a mile. The close relative is a computer and math genius, and did not buy Bitcoin as an investment.

He was hired by a major international IT company because of his expertise in blockchain technology. It is blockchain that is the future - crypto is just a part of that.

And that’s why he bought BC and other cryptos. He made his own Litecoin mining computers and at one time was making a killing mining Litecoin. He quit when his electricity bill exceeded his LC income of course.

He has 4 degrees obtained simultaneously, Summa Cum Laude. His “investments” have been very rewarding.

Neither he nor I am suggesting anyone buy Bitcoin presently. There are other crypto currencies with a lot greater potential.

Six months from now we’ll find out if he and I should have sold our Bitcoin at today’s prices, when we got in early for almost nothing.........
