Bitcoin\u2019s potential trajectory toward $1.1 million and a billion wallets formed a key narrative in Anthony Scaramucci\u2019s appearance on Bloomberg TV yesterday.<\/p>\n

In it, he framed Bitcoin not only as digital gold but also as a maturing asset class on the verge of widespread institutional integration, commenting,<\/p>\n

\u200a”Is Bitcoin an investment, or is it an asset class? If it's an investment, then $1\u2013$3 trillion, that sort of makes sense. That's akin to a Mag seven market capitalization. But if it's an asset class. It should trade closer to where gold is… $22\u2013$23 trillion right now.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Scaramucci\u2019s comments stressed a longer-term adoption curve, linking user growth to volatility dampening and reinforcing his thesis through the lens of infrastructure-focused investment.<\/p>\n

SkyBridge Bitcoin proxy ETF<\/h2>\n

The SkyBridge Capital founder had been discussing the First Trust SkyBridge Crypto Industry & Digital Economy ETF (CRPT), which offers exposure to Bitcoin\u2019s performance through corporate equities closely tied to the asset.<\/p>\n

With Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), Coinbase, Galaxy Digital, and MetaPlanet collectively accounting for approximately 73% of CRPT\u2019s holdings, the ETF presents a proxy strategy for investors restricted from directly purchasing spot Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

These restrictions remain a hurdle for many U.S. financial advisors operating under brokerage compliance policies, despite the January 2024 approval of spot-Bitcoin ETFs.<\/p>\n

CRPT\u2019s structure is designed to appeal to this demographic. Its actively managed approach skews heavily toward firms that integrate Bitcoin into their balance sheets or business models.<\/p>\n

MicroStrategy\u2019s recent 13,390 BTC acquisition brought its total holdings to 568,840 BTC, worth around $59 billion, while MetaPlanet, the Japanese firm styled as a \u201cJapanese MicroStrategy,\u201d surpassed the 5,000 BTC mark on April 24.<\/p>\n

Galaxy Digital, currently weighted at 15.3% within CRPT, is poised to transition its listing to the Nasdaq Global Select Market on May 16, a move expected to raise visibility and liquidity for the ETF.<\/p>\n

Coinbase, comprising 15.7% of CRPT, posted $2.03 billion in Q1 2025 revenue, though earnings missed analyst expectations, underlining the ETF\u2019s exposure to operational volatility across its holdings.<\/p>\n

Scaramucci framed CRPT as a \u201cgood surrogate\u201d for Bitcoin exposure, particularly for clients whose brokerage platforms still impose access barriers. While this workaround could become obsolete as compliance standards shift, current conditions maintain CRPT\u2019s relevance.<\/p>\n

The fund\u2019s assets under management reached $89.5 million as of May 3, reflecting a 35% increase year-to-date.<\/p>\n

However, its thin liquidity and equity-linked exposure pose dual risks: underperformance relative to Bitcoin and heightened sensitivity to company-specific events, such as regulatory action or earnings swings.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin's evolving yet cyclical narrative<\/h2>\n

The underlying thesis of CRPT ties into a broader narrative of Bitcoin\u2019s evolution from a speculative technology asset to a macroeconomic hedge. Scaramucci described Bitcoin\u2019s behavioral shift as one resembling gold, noting that during decoupling episodes<\/a>, when Bitcoin rallied independently<\/a> of equities, calls from major institutional players increased.<\/p>\n

As wallet adoption grows, he posited, the asset\u2019s volatility should decline, stating,<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cImagine a world where there are a billion wallets, a billion holders. The volatility should dampen. That happened in Microsoft, that happened in things like Google over a 20-year period of time.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The ETF\u2019s global allocation introduces another layer of strategy. While MetaPlanet operates out of Japan and Galaxy Digital is currently listed in Toronto, Galaxy's upcoming Nasdaq listing aligns with a broader trend of integrating Bitcoin-centric infrastructure firms into U.S. capital markets.<\/p>\n

This dynamic plays into what Scaramucci described as a \u201cpicks and shovels\u201d investment thesis, where backing companies embedded in Bitcoin\u2019s operational framework provides indirect exposure to its upside.<\/p>\n

For now, CRPT occupies a niche created by regulatory lag. Whether it maintains its appeal post-access liberalization will depend on whether investors see value in betting on the scaffolding around Bitcoin rather than the coin itself.<\/p>\n

As Galaxy Digital prepares for its U.S. listing, MetaPlanet expands its Bitcoin treasury, and Strategy continues accumulating, CRPT\u2019s leveraged exposure to the Bitcoin economy continues to offer a concentrated alternative for those unable or unwilling to hold Bitcoin directly.<\/p>\n

Scaramucci ended the interview by citing Solana as his altcoin pick to perform well over the coming months. He also cited Polkadot and Avalanche as other top contenders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
