Episode notes
Flat Year Isn’t Failure
- Bitcoin's flat year (down ~7–9%) isn't a failure when viewed across its 16-year track record of outsized returns.
- Long-term annualized growth (~121% CAGR) outweighs short-term comparisons to assets like silver or gold.
Bitcoin Is Not Gold
- Bitcoin never behaved like gold and shouldn't be expected to act as a risk-off safe haven.
- Treat Bitcoin as a risk-on, high-growth asset rather than a low-return store like gold.
Kids And Volatility
- Dante describes raising four kids to illustrate why volatility is necessary for growth.
- He uses the household example to argue asset classes need volatility to mature and attract new investors.
