What Do Top Financial Managers In Investment Companies Think About Allocating Capital To Buy Bitcoins, And How Do They Assess The Future Of Bitcoin?

Andy Edstrom, in an article The answer to this question, published on the Kevin Desk website. He is a leading economist and financial planner, author of Why Buy Bitcoin? (Why Buy Bitcoin) is a financial advisor and director of corporate investment at the Swan Bitcoin platform.

In its article, Adastram compares the current state of Bitcoin to that of Amazon in 2005; The company is now the third-largest company in the world in terms of value.

Similar doubts about Bitcoin and Amazon

From the day that Bitcoin price, It was a deficit of one dollar. To this day, many are skeptical about the price and future of bitcoin. These doubts have been raised in the past about other valuable assets. Note the following:

• It’s a bubble.
• It is just one of the many investment options available.
• It has only a few million users.
• Used for illegal purposes.
• It is not scalable and cannot grow as much as it is valued.
• It does not and will probably never generate cash flow.

The above were things that were and still are being said about Bitcoin.

Now look at what they said in 2005 about Amazon stock:

After bursting the Dot-com bubble (dot-com), As the Internet business improved, Amazon’s stock hit $ 35, sparking a heated debate over whether the company’s stock is worth that much.

Now back to 2020. Amazon is currently worth about $ 3,300 per share (90 times the 2005 price). In recent years, and on many occasions, Amazon shares alone have boosted the S&P 500 (US Stock Exchange Index).

Imagine that in 2005, you were the wealth manager (financial and investment advisor and legal planner) of an investment company. Like most of your peers, you did not allocate any funds to invest in Amazon stocks.

Going back to 2020, you are still the manager of wealth, and since you did not allocate any funds to buy Amazon shares in 2005, you will probably not have a chance to continue your business, and you will be left out!

I (the author of the article) am a wealth manager, and in 2005, many people, including myself, Market value. We underestimated Amazon. At first, we thought we were dealing with an online bookstore, which later became a global bookstore. He then sold other goods online and globalized the sale. Next, to support this business, provide cloud infrastructure, and then…

Amazon’s success owes much to the company’s top management.

However, one of the factors influencing this great success was creating an efficient, Internet-based (and therefore network-based) marketplace for an online business that is open to all suppliers. Without opening the market to third-party sellers, Amazon could not have become an “all-in-one store.”

This increased the available inventory for sale and strengthened Amazon’s position as an online marketplace everyone visits to buy any item.

As a result, Amazon became a large online platform with a market value of more than $ 1.5 trillion and thrived in this market. Today, Amazon has only 7% of the sales market and can still grow much faster.

These days, my colleagues and colleagues who work in wealth management are still making the same mistake about Bitcoin in 2005 about Amazon stocks.

Take a look at the list of criticisms of Amazon stocks 15 years ago; Bubbles, competition, underutilization, crime, lack of scalability, and lack of cash flow. But now, more than a decade later, 10,000 bitcoins for two pizzas(Similar to Amazon’s first successful book order) Exchange, Bitcoin has clearly won the rare digital money market, just as Amazon won the unrivaled e-commerce market a few years ago and is still leading the way in this huge and talented market. . Bitcoin still has a long way to go.

The value of gold, which is a scarce and popular currency worldwide, totals about $ 10 trillion.

The Bitcoin market, currently valued at $ 330 billion, accounts for less than 3% of the world’s scarce money market. However, the potential of the Bitcoin market includes the entire money market and safeguards. This overall market is several times larger than the gold market. This shows that bitcoin has gained only less than 1% of the total existing market.

Hesitant investors say Bitcoin will never be able to innovate or launch new products, such as Jeff Bezos(Jeff Bezos), CEO of Amazon, will not do.

But the reality is quite the opposite! Instead of being run by a management team led by a CEO and a limited number of employees, Bitcoin is an open platform with thousands of extremely hardworking software developers and entrepreneurs building additional shortcuts, applications, and useful products on the network platform.

Like the business owners who provide Amazon inventory so that the platform is a constant destination for users to shop for various items online, these thousands of successful developers and entrepreneurs have made Bitcoin an ideal place to invest online.

Therefore, in terms of investment opportunity, Bitcoin Today is almost where Amazon stood 15 years ago. Similarly, the value of Bitcoin is likely to grow as much as the value of Amazon stock in the next 15 years.

As a result, there will be two types of portfolios: those who were reasonably priced to buy some bitcoin for themselves and those who did not.

But, there will be only one type of wealth manager because wealth managers who did not buy bitcoins for their customers will face the fate of people who never went to Amazon shares; They go away!
