I just sold all my cryptocurrency. It's just currency speculation on the equivalent of Zimbabwean dollars or Nicaraguan Cordoba. I made £100 on the deal.

I like to put the odd smaller chunk in very high risk things now and then, I've done one or two on Seedrs and so on. On the basis that one might just blow up.

Bitcoin is the one everyone who doesn't have missed the boat on, massively. Almost certainly far too late now but then I remember thinking that at various points over the years and if I'd put even £100 in at any of those times, I could've bought a holiday or a car or a house depending which time it was.

Healthy diversification is a good thing, including diversification of risk, so I reckon a punt here and there is sensible. But I wondered if you can put any these things in an ifISA?
