[SkyBridge Capital Founder: Took Eight Years to Make First Bitcoin Investment] Anthony Scaramucci, founder and CEO of SkyBridge Capital, shared his journey from cryptocurrency skeptic to advocate during a social media Q&A session. He revealed that although he had the opportunity to learn about Bitcoin as early as 2012, it took him eight years to make his first Bitcoin investment. The reason was that he initially did not understand Bitcoin and was highly skeptical of it. However, after truly understanding blockchain and Bitcoin, he realized it was a groundbreaking technological innovation. Anthony Scaramucci added that as long as people 'do some homework,' 90% of them would lean toward Bitcoin.
