Is BTC actually the right investment?

Hi all. I'm not sure if this is the right place, but there are people here who have watched Bitcoin for years. I've been buying small amounts here and there for a year, and I currently own around 0.11 BTC, which is also a little more than half of my life savings. My other half, like $7k, is just sitting in my USD account.

I'm 22 and live in a country where crypto is not allowed, Ethiopia. They're getting stricter by the day, and soon there will come a day when I can't sell or buy more. I get this sudden temptation to sell it all and just invest in stocks, the safe option, but the other half of me wants to hold for life, you know.

And the market is not helping. It's been going down and down like crazy. Just when I think it will go higher, it just comes back down. I'm young, and I don't need the money for now, so I can just invest all my life savings and forget about it, and by the time I'm 40, it will be like 100x.

It's a painful dilemma. I feel like this community will be biased toward Bitcoin, but I still want to hear y'all's opinions.
