Skybridge Capital says Bitcoin a Better Tapering Hedge Than Gold

US
  • Both are likely to rally even as the Federal Reserve moves to taper asset purchases according to Senior Portfolio Manager Troy Gayeski
  • "We're going to stick to Bitcoin and crypto because we just think there's more upside," While there's more volatility, "you're going to capture a little bit more juice than you will in gold from that same phenomenon"
  • The firm's Bitcoin fund is up 51.2% since its inception in late December through to June 1.
  • Notes all fiat currency alternatives have gone through substantial corrections and are much better placed to handle the eventual taper and gradual slowing of money supply growth.
  • Also says Gold has established a floor, and with a lot of taper concerns having been pulled out of the market, the probability of gold continuing its uptrend to make news highs over the next year is fairly high
