David Rubenstein admitted that he regrets his tardiness in buying bitcoins. If I could, I would have invested in BTC much earlier.
“I see huge interest around the world in bitcoin and other ways of transferring value without the knowledge of the government. You may say that this secret movement of money is a bad thing. But words won’t stop people,” Rubinstein said.
The experienced investor reminded: Many people used to laugh at cryptocurrencies, but now even major financial institutions are trying to enter the digital asset sphere. That includes companies like BlackRock and Fidelity, which have filed to launch spot bitcoin ETFs.
“If even the mighty BlackRock wants to launch its own bitcoin ETF, BTC is clearly going to stay in the financial world for a long time,” concludes the co-founder of the Carlyle Group.
David Rubinstein predicted as far back as 2021: cryptocurrencies have a long-term foothold in the financial world, but gold also remains a strong asset.
