So if you answer no to that question, then you are biased. But it's not actually obvious which direction. What if non-Bitcoin-owning you is wrong, and you really should be buying it?
Also, if you have a lot of it, the extra Bitcoin might change your marginal value of money (because if you count the value of the BTC, you have more dollars than you otherwise would).
Correct, and I was implicitly ignoring income effects. Still, putting a lot of your assets in Bitcoins or any other exotic investment vehicle is ex-ante a HORRIBLE idea unless you have some special informational advantage.
