🗣“The Wolf of Wall Street” calls bitcoin a long-term investment
💡Former stockbroker Jordan Belfort has advised investors to buy bitcoins for long-term storage. In his view, the asset will help depositors to protect funds against inflation. Belfort added that long-term holders of the first cryptocurrency are more likely to profit. In addition, he believes that in the future, BTC will be traded as a store of value rather than as an investment vehicle with a growth prospect. Belfort attributed this to the fact that issuance of the asset is limited and inflation continues to rise.
