I would not advise it, which means if you do you will approach the mark as the richest person ever.
Look at buying just a little of the good Bitcoin ETF's in your IRA
Vegas will give you free cocktails.
I don't see anything wrong with some exposure to crypto. It's sure made some people very rich. And some lost their shirts.
Get a private wallet, ideally hardware based offline wallet.
Casino has negative expected value. BTC hasn't done that.
I thought the idea of cryptocurrency was keeping the government from knowing about what you have, what you buy and what you sell?
The two bitcoin ETFs that have made money (of the 4 I track) is GBTC & IBIT.
The others two did not.
Too much theft and scamming going on yet for me to invest directly in bitcoin. If that ever settles down, I'd consider it.

Yes, this is me.
Will trade it very short term.
I can see a private currency succeeding some day, but bitcoin has too many limitations.
Not to mention the recent Memecoin grift set crypto back a decade at minimum.
Exposure is fine as long as the investor understands the risk and volatility.
100% do not trust anyone else with the private key. Think Voyager.
Get a hard wallet such as a Ledger Nano and a stainless steel word storage device like a Bilfoldl. Then understand that if you lose your words, you have lost your crypto. Be informed.
