If you win the lottery and now have too much money, crypto is a way to lose a lot of money really freaking fast. If you put all your money into crypto, you're now broke!
You can always put the 90% of it into a stablecoin or pax gold and have it WO common crypto risk, and you can make privacy friendly transfers with it, a lot of people have loss money on crypto because they are ignorant.
I've never said to put all the money into crypto but definetly a 10% in high risk investment would be ok, you can still do a lot of stuff with the remaining 90%
Real estate it's a good option also for like 50% of it.
Or I can light the money on fire and lose it with less damage to the planet. And I'm not an idiot who thinks I might make money off of a terrible program.
Up to you mate.. good luck..
What is the point of stable coins? They can still collapse if the demand is too low. And you can still see the wallets, so the privacy doesn't seem much better. Seems like just keeping cash or securities but way worse. What would be the advantage?
There is nothing fully secure, I mean any currency fiat or not get value or loss it for external reasons, I think the most secure and compact of all it's diamonds but even it can loss value or be robbed, I believe gold bonds could be a good option also, as everything it's going electronic my opinion it's stablecoins linked to gold or some kind of natural resource it's another good option.
Diversifying in different types of investments it's a must go with big amounts of money, real estate, gold, high risk investments a good portfolio need to be integrated by a diversity of types of investments that way if something goes down you will not lose your whole money and as market it's always growing(at least until now) there is a bigger chance the majority of investments goes up instead of going down. Unless economy goes into a market crack.
My point it's there is nothing fully secure but you can try to gain more value for your investments instead of losing it. Just my humble POV.
Stable coins are tied to a fiat currency, right? So it would inherit their instability, plus additional instability if it becomes insolvent?
Stablecoins are tied to fiat or natural resources value, so if you invest in stablecoins it's like if you have those, for example pax gold it's tied to the value of an ounce of gold 1 PAX = 1 ounce of gold, about insolvency I have understood stablecoina behave as fiat there is a limit but it's almost unlimited in a real world application.
