The problem with betting on illiquid securities is that it would guarantee a change in that securities future. I’d probably stick with a big ocean of money to invest in like blue chip stocks because you personally aren’t going to change the market and if you have foreknowledge you can still make billions.
I think you’re mistaking how little would need to be invested.
I think my dad would start listening to his god-omen stock predicting son after a few missed billions.
“Dad listen, my college tuition? Fuck it. Put it down on Bitcoin in Jan of 2009 and sell on November 9th 2021 for ~$25T.”
I’d have over 10 trillion cash after taxes. Literally would have more cash than anyone on earth.
I mean yes if you could sell out. That transfer crashes the coin I bet and may have had negative consequences to your ability to cash out.

If you think my $100 position will make a measurable difference, you’re calculably incorrect.
However for something like trying to turn 300k into 25T on Bitcoin, yes, absolutely.
You could 100% become a trillionaire without significantly affecting market positions, though, even with just general knowledge.
Compounding interest is a hell of a drug.
