As part of the JOBS act, everyone is entitled to invest at least $2,000 dollars into start ups with that amount increasing based on your income and net worth. The way this works is that an organization can collect the cash and make the investment as though it is a single holder.

It takes bitcoin! Now you can take your crazy gains and buy equity in an actual start up company. The only issue with that, is start up equity only generates a real return when they IPO or are acquired. Which means if you want a return quickly (3 years rather than 7), pick something you think will get bought out by something like amazon or coinbase.
