Bitcoin is either the best or worst asset class every year. ZebPay CEO Rahul Pagidipati explains why
I wouldn’t say the trader community has increased, but the investor community certainly has. We now see high-net-worth individuals, family offices and fund houses asking detailed questions about how they can hedge and participate in crypto—not just in their trading portfolios, but also on their balance sheets.
Bitcoin's performance has been a mixed bag, achieving both the greatest returns and the worst outcomes in any given year, according to ZebPay CEO Rahul Pagidipati. This binary outcome is not a shortcoming, but rather a defining characteristic of the cryptocurrency, according to Pagidipati. As Indian family offices, high-net-worth investors, and fund houses seek exposure to digital assets, Pagidipati argues that Bitcoin is moving beyond its reputation as a trading instrument.
He envisions it evolving into the next store-of-value asset following gold, real estate, and stocks, albeit advising investors to avoid putting all their funds into it.
