In terms of weighting, Roche recommended allocating about 2-3% of a portfolio to crypto, and 7% to gold.\n“I would own bitcoin and gold in a portfolio as a hedge against the U.S. dollar,” he said during thelatest edition of CNBC’s PRO Talkswith Tanvir Gill on Wednesday.\nThe strategist said Wednesday that digital currencies like bitcoin and ether “are going to gain the credibility of investors because they actually get you out of the way of central banks, politicians and policymakers.”\n“My own feeling is they will get a wide network, they will get credibility and they will become a major asset to own,” he added.\nBitcoin has had a wild ride this year, reaching a record high of nearly $65,000 in April before plummeting close to $30,000 the following month. It’s currently trading at about $34,137, roughly halving in price from its all-time high but still up over 16% year-to-date.\nHowever, such volatility is to be expected from an asset class that’s still “very, very immature,” Roche said.\n“If you’re not prepared to put up with this sort of 30 or 40% reversal as an opportunity to invest in it, then you shouldn’t invest in it in the first place,” he added. “Currencies like bitcoin, like ethereum, will gain credibility and will gain a very wide network.”\nBitcoin bulls say the cryptocurrency can provide protection from inflation as central banks around the world print money to soften the economic blow of the coronavirus crisis. They say that this has led to increased buying of bitcoin from institutional investors.\n“If you think about a traditional currency ... these currencies are not actually backed by central bank assets,” Roche said. “You can’t walk into a central bank anymore and change a dollar for so much gold. That is gone.”\n“What is the difference to cryptocurrency? The only difference is it’s backed by a central bank, which is printing so much money you actually want to avoid its money,” he added.\nHowever, other market players see bitcoin as a speculative bubble that’s waiting to burst. Stephen Isaacs, chairman of the investment committee at financial consultants Alvine Capital, told CNBC in April he thinks the bitcoin bubblewill end. “And when it ends, it will be ugly because there will be nothing there,” he said.\nRoche wasn’t complacent about the risk of a significant slide in hot assets like bitcoin, meme stocks and special purpose acquisition companies in the event that central banks start raising interest rates again.\n“I would have thought the major risk factor at the moment is overconfidence by investors that markets will always go up because more money will be printed and more money will be spent by governments,” he said. “I think that is wrong of course. These are major risk factors.”","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":189857857,"gmtCreate":1623252529979,"gmtModify":1704199502967,"author":{"id":"3584182854667058","authorId":"3584182854667058","name":"BeautyTrade","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/63f8e238d1760fe32b24660344219105","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3584182854667058","authorIdStr":"3584182854667058"},"htmlText":"Blockchain
