Thomas Peterffy, founder of Interactive Brokers, recommends an allocation of 2% to 3% of net assets to Bitcoin

Thomas Peterffy, the billionaire founder of Interactive Brokers Group, recommended that investors have 2-3% of the net assets in Bitcoin. He said his firm only allowed its clientele to put up to 10% of their total assets into crypto. Peterffy believes that everyone without Bitcoin should find ways of owning some, but not too much, due to the associated risk of price fluctuations. He was, however, concerned that cryptocurrencies were just as worthy as paper currencies since they carried no intrinsic value. Having grown up in a socialist society, Peterffy was convinced that a free market economy was the only way to run a society efficiently. Peterffy believes everyone should invest a little in Bitcoin but remain cautious Thomas Peterffy, the billionaire founder of retail brokerage Interactive Brokers Group, said investors should own some Bitcoin though limit their holdings given the asset’s volatility. https://t.co/CJdDesLYbg — Bloomberg (@business) December 11, 2024 Peterffy, the chair of the retail brokerage firm Interactive Brokers, said investing a small portion in Bitcoin was advisable. He, however, cautioned against having too much exposure to cryptocurrencies in general because it was ‘dangerous’. Peterffy, who was initially critical of Bitcoin, argued that Bitcoin should be separated from the ‘real economy’ as the CME prepared to launch Bitcoin futures. The Interactive Brokers chair went on to predict that Bitcoin could bring down the whole economy. Peterffy was surprised that the rapid implosion of the FTX crypto empire in November did not cause a steeper Bitcoin correction. He also forecasted a market downturn, although he predicted it would not be ‘very violent’ or ‘go very far’. Speaking with Bloomberg’s Sonali Basak from the Goldman Sachs Inc. conference, Peterffy revealed that he had invested ‘just a little’ in crypto since July 2021. He added that there was a small chance of crypto emerging as a dominant currency back then. “Even I myself have put a little bit of money into crypto, because even though chances are, I think, that this is not going to be a viable market, I think that there’s a small chance that this will be a dominant currency, so you have to play the odds.” – Thomas Peterffy Peterffy remained unsure about Bitcoin’s worth, saying that its price could either spiral down to zero or skyrocket to a million dollars. ‘I have no idea,’ he said. He, however, advised investors to use crypto as a hedge against plummeting fiat currencies. Peterffy claimed that his platform was the most efficient for crypto trading, other than Robinhood.
