There is no single right answer to this question, as it depends on your own situation and goals when it comes to investing. However, if you are considering investing 50% of your savings in Bitcoin, here are a few things to consider before making the decision.

First off, Bitcoin is a digital currency, with fluctuating values that are not backed by any central government or organizations. It may be attractive for its potential for capital gains in the long-term, however investors should exercise caution when dealing with cryptocurrency - particularly if they plan to invest a large portion of their savings into it. Bitcoin can be volatile at times due to its unregulated nature and there have been significant losses reported over the years from people investing heavily in the currency without fully understanding all of the risk factors involved.

It’s important to use financial savvy and do proper research before committing your hard-earned money into such an investment option like bitcoin. One way many people assess whether bitcoin is worth investing in or not is by researching long-term trends of past price performance against other investments such as stocks or gold metals The upward trend suggests that some believe the currency will increase in value over time; however this isn't necessarily guaranteed so again extreme caution should be taken when weighing up what percentage of your assets should be used on Bitcoin investments.

Ultimately whether or not you decide to invest 50% of your savings into bitcoin will depend largely upon how much risk aversion you have - meaning how comfortable you feel taking risks with highly speculative/unstable assets where gains come purely from future market value appreciation rather than dividend income derived from an underlying asset class exchange listed securities etc. There can also often be extended downtimes caused by market forces like security threats which could lead uninsured customers suffering major losses if they haven't adequately protected themselves beforehand via insurance contracts hedging strategies etc.. Ultimately it's best practice for individuals looking into crypto investments like bitcoins (or anything similar) understand all their risks associated before committing large portions their hard earned money towards them....so take care!
