American financier Anthony Scaramucci has allocated $ 250 million to the altcoin project, which he describes as the Google of cryptocurrencies. The popular investor places a bet on a project among the top 30 by market capitalization.
“This altcoin is the Google of the future”
Anthony Scaramucci, founder of Bull and SkyBridge Capital, says his firm has invested heavily in Algorand. The American financier attributed this to the strength of Algorand compared to competing Blockchains. Scaramucci thinks the cryptocurrency will replace most competing networks. In a recent interview, he said that ALGO will challenge leading competitors in the crypto industry, just like Google. While Google was silent in the early days of the internet, it is now indispensable in the world. Scaramucci states the following on this subject:
I currently have a quarter billion dollars in Algorand. I think Algorand will be Google,.
Scaramucci also compared Algorand’s potential to surpass Ethereum in market cap in December 2021 with the opportunity that Google took advantage of, bypassing its predecessors in the early stages of the internet. Algorand is a blockchain-based crypto platform focused on security, scalability and decentralization. It is faster than Ethereum and offers lower transaction fees. ALGO also has a net negative carbon footprint. In some of the explanations, Scaramucci emphasizes the importance of all these features:
I think eventually when big companies move to the tokenization side of the market and start working in the DeFi world, they will need something scalable like Algorand, secure like Algorand and ultimately decentralized, so they won’t have it.
Anthony Scaramucci continues to keep his portfolio crypto-heavy
Scaramucci says Algorand is the future. He also says that everyone should do detailed due diligence and make the decision to choose Blockchain. In December last year, Scaramucci told CNBC that his funds have nearly $9 billion in assets. He also said that $1.3 billion of it consists of crypto investments. Each fund has a 10% to 25% allocation to crypto.
