Bitcoin is like the final boss of money. No cap, it’s decentralized, untouchable, and built different. While fiat’s out here inflating like your ex’s ego, Bitcoin’s just vibing on the blockchain, securing the bag for the next gen. Get in or get left in the dust.

Bitcoin is considered risk on and gold is considered risk off. The future bitcoin will be considered risk off in the same manor gold is.
Bitcoin becomes more mainstream and more people adopt to bitcoin the price will eventually stabilize but also the price will follow the stock market. Basically but most people would not have the conviction on holding this much in btc or understand self custody. Self custody is the battle i have with anyone buying bitcoin and its the hardest hurdle to help anyone get over. Bitcoin is no different to buying bitcoin instead of paying down debt.  The end result in both cases is you have debt.  It's just the psychology of it is different. In fact consider p2p options as your first go to since your just starting out, this way you can be very private with your bitcoin holdings from the start. All this bitcoin being custodianed by US is going to eventually be a very tempting honey pot for some future US gov to come and seize in the name of whatever. I'm seeing that it's been in bitcoin since inception when trying to look up history. though mastering bitcoin did actually give a reason why it may not actually be a bug, but rather, room for a future feature that never got implemented and now can't be removed. Someone who has independently made a footprint on the blockchain is a Bitcoiner to me.

If you want to really understand the cryptographic elements behind bitcoin you could go deeper into elliptic curve cryptography.
