Don't worry about the asset being trust and ignore every other thing called "asset" and buy Bitcoin because that is the focus here. Buy the DIP and HODL simply means buy Bitcoin and HODL. There is no point giving attention to anything thereby bordering ourselves on if the asset is trustworthy, as we know, Bitcoin is trustworthy and anyone that cannot trust Bitcoin cannot trust any other thing.
The main portion of any portfolio should be Bitcoin, in my opinion.
Anything else would be an addition to it.

There are of course those who try to make an alt breakthrough, but it usually ends up in something not good. And it's not as stable as to invest in Bitcoin.
