If you are seriously comparing tulip mania to bitcoin you need to do more research. Crypto is not tulips and in fact there is ample evidence tulips weren't even tulips.
You could just get on coinbase and buy a little bitcoin and any others you like and see what happens. Crypto is really down right now and that may continue or it may not. Have some fun with it on the cheap and who knows what might happen.
Gook Luck!
Yes at one point in history there was tulip madness that would rival bitty coin
