Talking about Bitcoin, he said:
ââŠyouâve got this group, thatâs by the way, crowdsourced all around the world, that are dedicated to seeing bitcoin succeed and it becoming a commonplace store of value and transactional to boot. Iâve never had an inflation hedge where you have a kicker, that you also have great intellectual capital behind it, so that makes me even more constructive on it.â
