I had a large amount of savings in Bitcoin in September 2020. However, after reading the salient arguments against Bitcoin made by Stephen Diehl on his Twitter account, I liquidated my entire position.

And I couldn't be happier.

Thanks to his nuanced decomposition of the technology I have avoided the wild price swings over the last year, and protected myself against the inevitable crash.

I would recommend anyone with a position in Bitcoin to read his informed analysis on the technology and cash out while you still have chance.

The best time to get out of Bitcoin was a year ago. The second best time is today.

*BTC Value in USD Sept 1 2020: $11,414.03

I understand what you're saying and peace of mind is a big part of investing, but you clearly lost out on massive gains.

Stephen Diehl is the textbook example of a fanatic. Not just on the topic of cryptos.

I would take whatever he says with a bucketload of salt.

prob not smart idea to rely on investment advice solely from a single twitter user. Diehl often makes inaccurate claims about the technology he is criticising, and refuses to enter into any discussion that goes against his beliefs
