There are several factors that only you can decide. Do you want to trade or invest? One time large buy in, or dollar cost averaging by buying some regularly? Your intentions should inform your decisions.
You might also want to study Bitcoin price pattern over the last several years. There are definite cycles. Right now it is ripping. Who knows how high it'll go this cycle. Some say 120k, some say 200k. But at some point it will probably have a big drop again, and then slowly build up again to a new high.
You don't have to buy Bitcoin, there are several proxies you can use. Stocks like COIN, MSTR, MARA, WULF and others more or less move with Bitcoin. But beware, they can be extremely volatile. MSTR closed Wednesday at 475, opened Thursday at 540 and proceeded to drop to less than 400 by the end of the day. That is quite the rollercoaster ride.
Probably the most stable is to invest in a Bitcoin futures based ETF. I believe the one with the biggest asset base currently is IBIT. I also have some BITO, their price lags BTC somewhat, but they have a monthly dividend that you of course can reinvest.
There are also ETFs that offer different strategies. BITX is a 2x leveraged product, more or less 2x the growth, but of course, also 2x the loss of it goes bad. SBIT is an inverse product you can buy when BTC is going down.
Mark Dice did a nice job covering this, about 5:30 into the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDaCP8yoX-M
Maybe once the government is trimmed, housing will be affordable in Northern VA. I might actually be able to afford a home again.
