the only really profitable thing to do at this point is to buy BTC and sit on it

at least put like 30 percent of your money into buying and holding btc

1. Buy bitcoins
2. Hold
3. Huh

?
4. Profit

Is there some kind of universal law that says: "bitcoin will be worth more than $140"? I don't get this kind of advice. Maybe I have been here for too long. I saw the price fall 50% in one day many many times now. I also saw bitcoin lose more than 10 times its value in just a few months. Putting 1/3 of your money into bitcoin and sitting on it means that you might lose half of that tomorrow. You can also double it, I have also seen that. Anyway, this is speculation. It isn't a perfectly safe and lucrative investment.
