Sometimes it's best not to say anything.
Its well less than 5% of my pension pot (£10K) I've invested in a bit coin tracker. Yes I might lose but the same goes for all pension pots. Admitedly, its a bit more volatile!
But over the last few years, Bitcoin has grown and grown in value quite well. I could sell my profit today and cover about 40% of my initial investment. In fact, at some point I won't be greedy and will sell a percentage to cover my initial investment and put somewhere safer. From then on its profit.
In terms of cash, I've only invested about £1000 over about 5-6 different cryptos so not the end of the world. As they say, money you can afford to lose. I won't be overjoyed to lose a £1000 (unlikely) of course, but the world wont end because of it.Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment

Placed £1k bet on Neo rallying tonight... $40 perhaps it falls to $37 - afterwards it'll shoot up again."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment
