U.Today – Anthony Scaramucci, founder and managing partner of SkyBridge Capital and a prominent supporter, stopped by CNBC’s Squawk Box to talk about the world’s flagship cryptocurrency and the latest news about U.S. pension funds beginning to purchase it.
“It pays to get into Bitcoin early” – Scaramucci
Bitcoin has now received regulatory approval, the financial expert continued, and has given the green lightweight to all major financial institutions to start hedging their positions in BTC.
Scaramucci believes that BTC will become part of a long-term tactical asset allocation strategy for institutional investors in the near future.
The expert also believes it is essential to “do your homework on Bitcoin,” which means not only reading the white paper but also understanding the history of money and how it works. Once you do that, Scaramucci said, “you go towards Bitcoin.”
Overall, he believes being early in Bitcoin’s development is profitable and “we’re still in the early stages… sometimes when you’re early there are some bumps and scratches,” he said.
