Investing and wealth — Bitcoin courses on long-term thinking
Bitcoin is a 100-year project. Learn how to think about it the way long-term investors do — not the way the market wants you to.
What is investing & wealth?
Investing in Bitcoin is unlike investing in any other asset, and most of the rules you've learned for stocks or property apply badly. Bitcoin is more volatile than stocks. It has no earnings. It pays no dividends. It has been declared dead in mainstream press over 400 times in 15 years. And it has been the best-performing asset of every five-year window since it launched.
A serious course on investing in Bitcoin is not about predictions. It's about frameworks — for sizing positions, for tolerating drawdowns, for thinking about time horizons measured in decades, and for building the psychological resilience to actually hold through the worst bear markets. Most of the people who have made the most from Bitcoin did almost nothing during the volatile periods. That's a skill, and it can be taught.
Tax matters too. Bitcoin is treated differently in every jurisdiction, and most of the obvious-seeming actions (moving sats between wallets, paying with sats, selling at a profit) have tax implications people don't expect. We cover the UK, US, and EU frameworks with enough detail to keep you out of trouble.
What you'll learn
- 1Pick a Bitcoin allocation size that matches your risk tolerance
- 2Choose between DCA and lump-sum based on actual data — not vibes
- 3Stay calm through 70%+ drawdowns without panic-selling
- 4Use the halving cycle as context, not as a market-timing signal
- 5Apply UK, US, or EU tax rules to your own Bitcoin transactions
- 6Build Bitcoin into your estate and inheritance plan
- 7Avoid the trader's trap — and the data on why holding has historically won
Why it matters
Most Bitcoin investors lose money. The reason isn't bad timing — it's panic. The asset class swings 70-80% routinely; people who have not built the mental model for that don't hold through it. They sell near the bottom and buy back near the top. The information that would have prevented that is not secret — it's just not taught alongside the "how to buy Bitcoin" videos that dominate the space.
For families, the wealth-building dimension is strategic. Bitcoin's most asymmetric returns have come over 5-15 year holding periods. That's exactly the timeline parents care about — the gap between "now" and "when my kids hit university". A small position held for 10 years has historically outperformed a big position traded actively. Teaching the discipline matters more than the entry timing.

How we teach investing & wealth
No predictions. We don't tell you whether the price is going up or down next month, because nobody knows and the people who claim to know are usually selling something. We teach the historical patterns, the structural drivers, and the cognitive traps — and let you build your own conviction.
Real numbers, real years. We use historical price data, real DCA simulations, real tax scenarios. The lessons that stick are the ones grounded in actual data rather than hypotheticals.
On the psychology side we lean heavily on cognitive science. Loss aversion, recency bias, social proof — the same forces that drive lottery players also drive Bitcoin sellers. Once you've named the bias, you can resist it.
For kids the message is different. We don't talk about portfolio allocations — we talk about time preference, compounding, and the magic of patience. The same lessons, framed for someone whose investment horizon is sixty years long.

Frequently asked
What's the right Bitcoin allocation for my portfolio?
There is no single right answer — it depends on your time horizon, risk tolerance, and existing assets. The course covers frameworks that have worked for different profiles, from 1% to 50% allocations, and helps you reason through what makes sense for you.
Should I buy Bitcoin in a lump sum or DCA?
Both work. The course shows the historical data on each, the psychological trade-offs (DCA feels safer; lump-sum has had higher average returns), and a hybrid approach that some long-term holders prefer.
What about Bitcoin ETFs?
They're convenient, they have fees, and you don't hold the keys. The course covers when an ETF makes sense (tax-advantaged accounts, simplicity) and when self-custody is the better path (everywhere else).
How are Bitcoin gains taxed in the UK?
In the UK, Bitcoin held outside an ISA is subject to Capital Gains Tax above the annual exemption. We cover the rules, including the 30-day rule, share-pooling, and how to record cost basis. (Not tax advice — see your accountant for your specific situation.)
Should my kids have a Bitcoin position?
Many parents in the BTCBitByBit community give kids small allocations as long-term savings, framed as "magic money that grows if you don't touch it". A 60-year holding period gives even a small position significant compounding potential.
