What percentage of your weekly wage or net worth are you willing to kiss goodbye? That's the only metric that counts really. I started off with a couple of hundred quid and then went from there.

The first priority of any investment strategy should be to maximize return while hedging against risk, thus there is nothing more important than protecting your capital.

So you shouldn't invest more than what you can afford to lose but consider hedging against bad monetary policy with cryptos.

I remember, someone was telling that the bitcoin has become essentially a "religion" because people believe the values are assets and that is why the value appreciates. If one day the belief system collapses, the whole game will or would collapse as well.
