A crypto fund manager scaled his personal portfolio from 2-3% to 30% over time, now running an eight-figure hedge fund. He recommends newcomers start with 1-2% and increase gradually. He bets on projects built to last a decade, not on which blockchain wins or whether it replaces SWIFT.

I never put more than I can lose inside of crypto. Now, at the beginning, I said I'm going to put 2% to 3% of my investments into crypto. And then that became 5%. Then that became 10%. Then it became 20%. Then it became like 30% because of the confidence I had. And we now run an 8-figure crypto hedge fund. So I'm very confident what we're doing, our strategies and which coins we're looking at and where we're going. So I take an institutional now approach to crypto. It just started out though as I'll put 1% in. too, and it grew from there. For the layman starting out, that might be an interesting strategy to follow to just get your feet wet in this game. Because I do, I personally do believe though, the future of finance is on blockchain. Now, which blockchain will win? Which will be the one that outlasts them all? I don't know. Which countries will use? Which one will replace the SWIFT system? I don't know. So I'm going to place a spread bet on ones that I think will, that will last over a decade, over 2 decades.
