Let's say a young teenager is given some coming-of-age money from their family, and is interested in growing that money through Bitcoin. Without encouraging him/her to invest in risky strategies, what are some lower risk methods of growing a Bitcoin portfolio with a hypothetical gift of $1K?
Almost everywhere you put your money for "growing" you'll most likely lose them. The only thing I would recommend is holding. This will give you around 30% rise in one year, maybe less, maybe more, but you won't lose all your money at least.
