Billionaire Simon Nixon intends to increase his investments in cryptocurrencies. This is reported by Bloomberg with reference to Adam Proctor, director of the Nixon family capital management firm Seek Capital.
According to him, Seek Capital plans to increase "allocation in cryptocurrencies, as it considers them an important part of the future." To do this, the firm is ready to hire a separate analyst, Proctor added.
According to a recent survey by Goldman Sachs, about half of the family capital management firms working with the bank would like to add cryptocurrencies to their portfolios to hedge inflation and take into account a long period of low interest rates. 15% of respondents reported that they already have investments in cryptocurrencies.
"Many people believe that this technology will be as significant as the Internet in terms of efficiency and productivity," the bank noted, commenting on the results of the survey.
Nixon is the co-founder of a website for comparing credit conditions Moneysupermarket.com, has assets of more than $1 billion and invests in startups.
