Amercian entrepreneur Anthony Scaramucci is highly bullish about cryptocurrencies in the long term.

The Skybridge CEO said Bitcoin could potentially become a $300,000 asset in the space of six years. Speaking to CNBC, he said cryptocurrencies could prove to be great long term investments. Bitcoin and Ethereum are two of Skybridge’s largest positions, he explained, adding that they also have a large position in Algorand. He said his company is also interested in Solana.

“In the next six years, if BTC goes to $300K a coin, it will not matter whether you bought it at $20K or $60K. And I am just cautioning people that the future is upon us. It’s happening sooner than I thought.”

Describing Algorand as having an award winning technology, Scaramucci said, “We have a very large position in a smaller coin called Algorand.” He added that Bitcoin could witness huge commercial activity with improvement of the lightning network. An increase in applications and ease of transactions on the network could also result in positive momentum for Bitcoin, he explained.
