Good point.

A cursory search on investment tips from viable sources had been suggesting, all along, that a 1% portfolio exposure is ideal for crypto (that 1% includes all miscellaneous e.g. ponzi IPO, fake ICO, alt and actual crypto cash, bitcoin, bitcoin cash et al). Heeding that suggestion, since I had $400 in my bank account, I invested $4 on cryptos. It will not make me rich.

But like Ronald Wayne, I don't know at this time.
