Don't get me wrong. I do not agree with the concept of diversifying for the mere sake of diversification, and surely I don't believe that fucking around with shitcoins is actually sufficient diversification, since they are all dependent upon bitcoin's performance... but if you start to acquire a lot of bitcoin, and let's say 2-5 years of your annual income is in bitcoin, and you don't have any other investments, you might well start to consider that you are not sufficiently hedged for the possibility that your bitcoin investment might go to zero.
^ I like your perspective of view here as an investor and that is what I am doing right now to stick on BTC whatever it is.
BTC has shown tremendous growth and potential and we all know that it is important to recognize that no investment is entirely risk-free. By having a substantial portion of your assets tied to BTC, you become more susceptible to its price fluctuations and overall performance.
I think being a good investor starts with being a BTC enthusiast that no matter what it takes, you will never let go of your BTC holding hoping for a better reward in the future which is proven and tested from the past years.
