021 - Bitcoin Opportunity Fund: Using Public and Private Markets to Grow the Ecosystem


Listen Later

David Foley and James Lavish, managing partners at the Bitcoin Opportunity Fund, discuss their investment strategy and the unique approach they take in the Bitcoin space. They invest in both public and private markets, including bitcoin itself, miners, and early to mid-stage Bitcoin companies. They also engage in private mining operations and distressed debt investing. Their background in traditional finance and their understanding of capital allocation and risk management sets them apart from other funds in the space. 

They believe that Bitcoin is a store of value and a growth story, and they see the potential for it to become a separate asset class. Bitcoin's transactional nature is also highlighted, with its ability to facilitate fast and low-cost transfers globally. The importance of understanding Bitcoin and diversifying one's portfolio with a percentage of Bitcoin is emphasized.
