According to BlackRock, Bitcoin Is Still a Great Portfolio Diversifier. So How Much Bitcoin Should You Be Holding in Your Portfolio?
The combination of all this news has sent investors in search of safe havens for some of their money, pushing Bitcoin and gold prices higher.
Allocating 1% to 2% of your portfolio toward Bitcoin might not be a bad strategy. It's a conservative percentage that shouldn't weigh too heavily on your portfolio if Bitcoin falls dramatically again. And at the same time, it will allow you to benefit from major Bitcoin price upswings when they come. But only do so if you're comfortable with the additional risks and OK with adding some volatility to your investments.
