Billionaire investor and former Facebook executive Chamath Palihapitiya says that Bitcoin (BTC) has already effectively replaced gold as a store of value.<\/p>\n
In a new CNBC interview, the founder and CEO of Social Capital shares why he believes the market share of the flagship cryptocurrency will continue to grow. He also predicts a swath of other crypto projects growing in prominence due to solid use cases.<\/p>\n
Bitcoin, I think, has effectively replaced gold, and it will continue to do so and so that market cap is just going to grow.<\/p>\n
Then for the first time, I think were seeing the initial versions of the solution that we thought Bitcoin was supposed to be: smart contracts, better savings accounts, better insurance, better credit scoring, and thats happening through this DeFi (decentralized finance) stuff thats being built on Ethereum and Solana.<\/p>\n
The venture capitalist says hes wary of medium-term inflation and names Bitcoin and two other altcoins as part of an inflation-resistance investment portfolio.<\/p>\n
Im very concerned about medium-term inflation and so in an inflationary environment, in my very simplistic view of the world, I want to own three things: hypergrowth [firms] because hypergrowth can always outrun inflation. Think of that as like companies that are growing 50 plus percent a year. Its incredible growth, right?<\/p>\n
Then I want to own cash-generative assets, a great example is like a mining stock. I know that sounds crazy, but its pretty incredible. And then I want to own non-correlated assets: Bitcoin, Solana, DESO (Decentralized Social), a lot of the DeFi protocols because its a great counter-intuitive hedge against all of these stuff.<\/p>\n
