Hi,
today, Carl Icahn came in an interview that can be listed here, where he stated that he plans to go big into crypto, BTC to be more precise.
What is big time? Well, one to one and half billion worth of BTC, which by any means is a huge sum for every person out there.
Well, why it this important? It is a signal that the old dinosaurs, who have been critic to crypto and BTC, like Dalio, now turn to crypto. Remember this are over 70 year old people, Carl Icahn being 85 years old at the moment.
This guy is a tough one, having a reputation of a hardliner. If you know Oliver Stone, you might know that he made the film Wall Street, where Gordon Gekko was inspired by him. Icahn is not like Dalio, he is the bullish guy that buys companies and gets 20%-30% improvement in a year by reducing waste and not needed processes and personnel. A trough self-made billionaire, which knows hard work and most of the time the hidden value.
I say most of the time, as he was one of the biggest sceptic towards BTC and crypto. Something made change his mind. Does he see BTC a better investment to state bonds? Of course, else he would not want to put $1 billion into it.
This is the second dinosaur this week that praises crypto, not all crypto, but the one with value.
If we see some more like him, we might ignore the influencers under influence.
Do you think we will have an increase in BTC value following this announcement?
