Episode notes
Slow Conviction From Reading To Adoption
- Morgen first read about Bitcoin on the Mises Institute blog around 2011 but didn’t act immediately due to practical barriers.
- Her husband (Pierre) introduced her to hands-on Bitcoin and it took about three years for her conviction to solidify.
Institutional Entry Could Lower Volatility
- Institutional adoption may reduce future volatility as more capital treats Bitcoin like money rather than a speculative growth asset.
- Lower volatility would help Bitcoin serve as money and could change the market dynamics of prior cycles.
Hold Some Bitcoin In Every Portfolio
- In 2025 you should hold some Bitcoin exposure; being below market weight is effectively a short position.
- Consider at least market-weight exposure (around 2% currently) via ETF or direct BTC.
