It's blockchain. It's volatile. We're in a late cycle, and Blockchain will fall to $2,000 before it reaches $10,000. This whole sector is highly levered and he would avoid it.

BLOK vs. BKCH

Both pretty broad-based. Likes the idea of targeting a relatively nascent sector (around for a few years, but still finding its path). Likes using ETFs, as you're not setting yourself up as much for failure. You can still see a drawdown, but picking a basket protects you to some extent.

Of these two, prefers this one with its fairly good risk-adjusted returns. Caution:  it's still for the speculative part of your portfolio. Includes businesses that aren't just about blockchain such as IBM, HOOD and CME.

COMMENT

This is not a pure blockchain play. It holds Bidu for example. They do hold some like HIVE Blockchain. Look elsewhere if you want a pure play on blockchain.
