Bitcoin, A Fiduciary Duty with Nik Bhatia

“If you are ignoring Bitcoin now, as a growth manager, you are ignoring that an alternative monetary reality has come into existence on this planet.”

— Nik BhatiaLocation: El Salvador

Date: Saturday May 8th

Project: USC Marshall School of Business

Role: Adjunct Professor of FinanceFor a long time, asset managers in the traditional finance world have largely ignored bitcoin. Often using outdated and debunked theories as to why bitcoin is another tulip bubble that boils the oceans, kills polar bears and used by drug dealers and criminals.Over the last year, this has begun to change, institutions have woken up to Bitcoin, and they are beginning to see it for what it is, the soundest money the world has ever seen and a tool for freedom. Nik Bhatia says that Bitcoin has changed monetary technology as we know it. It is now the fiduciary duty for asset managers to consider bitcoin, not only for the economic benefit but also for societal change.In this interview, I talk by Author and Professor of Finance Nik Bhatia. We discuss his recent article ‘Asset Managers, Owning Bitcoin Is Now Your Fiduciary Duty’, currency debasement and how Bitcoin is the new monetary reality.This episode’s sponsors:
