The world’s most valuable crypto was all fired up, triggering the crypto market to gain over $200 billion in value amid strong reports that powerful hedge fund manager and billionaire, Ray Dalio, revealed some bullish bias on Bitcoin.

The billionaire gave his thoughts on why the flagship crypto asset, is gaining mainstream attention:

“Bitcoin has proven itself over the last 10 years, it hasn’t been hacked. It’s by and large, therefore, worked on an operational basis. It has built a significant following. It is an alternative, in a sense, store hold of wealth. It’s like digital cash. And those are the pluses.”

“They don’t want other monies to be operating or competing because things can get out of control. So, I think that it would be very likely that you will have it, under a certain set of circumstances, outlawed the way gold was outlawed.”
