Whenever I meet someone who learns I work in finance, the first question I inevitably get is, “What are your thoughts on crypto?”
It’s not a surprise. After all, the price of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) has gone up 77-fold over the past five years, from around $745 in 2016 to a stunning $57,500 today. Given the potential for market-beating gains like that, there are clearly reasons for investors to think about gaining exposure to cryptocurrencies.
