  1. And no, it’s not responsible to be calling Boston Omaha a “Baby Berkshire” … though I imagine some folks will be doing just that before too long. Resist the urge!

    Not sure why with Bitcoin, etc., investors with gigantic gains would not just pull out their cash investment plus a modest return and let the rest ride unless they need the money. The potential upside outweighs the risk of losing paper profits, IMO. For my part I’m letting it all ride and won’t shed too many tears if I lose it. There is real shared value in faith, freedom, and independence from central banks, but yes, it may evaporate quickly under certain circumstances.

    Travis — instead of Naspers as a backdoor to Tencent why not buy TCEHY directly
    like I did this week for around $48+ per share (down from $53+) ?

    One interesting note about Boston Omaha is that one of the heads is the grandson of Warren Buffet himself.

    Travis – are you familiar with BLKCF (Global Blockchain Technologies Corp)? It seems like a purer way to invest in the blockchain technology, though they do have some selective cryptocurrency exposure. Jim Rogers is on the advisory board. I’ve been watching for while but will likely wait for the cryptocurrency hype to fade a bit. However price action does seem detached from the recent bitcoin runup. Company site is https://globalblockchain.io. Interested in your thoughts, thanks.
