> There is a difference between good assets (AAPL, Bitcoin)

Wasnt Bitcoin considered a bad asset in the past?

I suppose its relative. We can ask around if ____ is a good asset, and we'll get different answers.

Monetary goods / store of value assets are especially open to interpretation. Is a $100m painting worth really worth $100m? Is gold really worth $2k/oz? Shrug.

Bitcoin’s market cap is listed as $1T. Apple is 2T. Would you rather own all the Bitcoin in the world or 50% of Apple?
