If you put $1,000 into an Anthony Scaramucci crypto portfolio at the start of 2025, here’s your return now

Anthony Scaramucci , the founder of SkyBridge Capital, has long been one of the most vocal proponents of cryptocurrency. In 2017, during Trump’s first term in office, Scaramucci was appointed as the White House Communications Director. However, his political tenure was short-lived—he was dismissed just ten days later following a highly publicized dispute with then-Chief of Staff Reince Priebus. As a long-time Bitcoin ( BTC ) bull, Scaramucci has allocated more than 50% of his portfolio to the leading cryptocurrency. He has also invested in Solana ( SOL ), Avalanche ( AVAX ), and Polkadot ( DOT )—assets chosen primarily for their utility. Speaking on the Bankless podcast in early January, Scaramucci highlighted Solana as his top choice among layer-one blockchains, citing its speed and low transaction costs as key advantages. His outlook on Bitcoin remains equally optimistic, having predicted last year that BTC would surpass $100,000 in 2024, fueled by surging demand for Bitcoin exchange-traded funds ( ETFs ). Looking ahead, Scaramucci believes that pro-crypto policies under a new administration could push Bitcoin’s value even higher, potentially doubling by 2025. However, he remains cautious about the broader macroeconomic landscape, warning that Donald Trump’s proposed protectionist trade policies, especially a blanket tariff strategy, could trigger recessionary pressures in the U.S. economy, an outcome that may weigh heavily on investor sentiment, including in crypto markets. Anthony Scaramucci’s portfolio performance in Q1 2025 In the first quarter of 2025, Scaramucci’s crypto portfolio suffered sharp losses. Investors who followed his strategy and invested $1,000 evenly across his top four holdings on January 1 have seen their portfolio value shrink to approximately $700, a steep 30% decline in just three months. While the year started on a cautiously optimistic note, a market-wide selloff on February 1, triggered by Trump’s formal announcement of sweeping tariffs sent shockwaves through risk assets, with cryptocurrencies among the hardest hit. At the time of writing, Bitcoin, which comprises over half of Scaramucci’s portfolio, is down 7.9% year-to-date, trading at $86,538. Solana, which is favored by both Scaramucci and SkyBridge Capital over Ethereum ( ETH ), has also plunged 31% to $129. BTC and Solana year-to-date price chart.

When market sentiment turns, such high-exposure positions can quickly erode gains. In contrast, a more balanced approach that includes stablecoins and a wider array of crypto assets may offer better protection against volatility, helping investors weather sharp corrections without absorbing the full impact of sector-wide drawdowns.
