Jim Cramer is a "believer" in cryptocurrencies, but only as a small part of your portfolio. He recommends bitcoin and ethereum, which have the largest followings and "seem the most legitimate" Cramer argues that crypto's long-term value "is its timeliness" as a decentralized, peer-to-peer currency. Cramer says you should never borrow money to own crypto: "Borrow for your house, borrow for your car — but don't borrow for crypto" He recommends allocating no more than 5% of your investments to crypto, as well as up to 5% in gold, another speculative investment.
