Holding Bitcoin Is as Safe as Owning Bonds and Gold, by Anthony Scaramucci
Anthony Scaramucci is the head of SkyBridge Capital and former White House communications director. He introduced a new Bitcoin fund in early January and indicated that improved infrastructure and regulation have made BTC investments “as safe as owning bonds and commodities like gold.” In an opinion article published on CNN, Scaramucci and fellow SkyBridge executive, Brett Messing maintained that Bitcoin has become a viable option for long-term investors seeking refuge from inflation.Bitcoin is less risky to hold now than it was a few years ago when regulations and infrastructure were still underdeveloped. In December, SkyBridge Capital made a big splash as it applied with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to launch a Bitcoin hedge fund. SkyBridge reportedly invested in Bitcoin during November and December, allowing it to accumulate a large position in the digital asset before its parabolic spike. Today, SkyBridge claimed its BTC exposure was worth approximately $310 million.
