For this reason, many call Bitcoin “digital gold.”, considering it an effective means of hedging inflation risks. Anthony Scaramucci, co-founder of the SkyBridge Capital hedge fund, shares a similar opinion. (Anthony Scaramucci), who is convinced, that every large investor should have Bitcoin in their portfolio.
