Crowdsource’s Takeaway

Unless one is a Bitcoin Maximalist, Tim Ferriss’ crowdsourcing exercise uncovered several interesting asset classes that might benefit one’s portfolio during the current inflationary environment. Namely:

  • Bitcoin
  • Stable coin yields
  • Other cryptocurrencies
  • Commodities
  • Commodity producers
  • Trend-following commodity trading advisors (CTAs)
  • Real estate/rents
  • Entrepreneurship
  • Equities
  • Silver/ Gold (apparently, also a hedge against Bitcoin)
