After 8 years of holding, a billion dollar cryptocurrency was sold by Peter Thiel’s world-famous fund.
Cryptocurrency sale of the famous fund
Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund has successfully sold a billion dollars worth of cryptocurrency at a substantial profit. The most interesting part of the story is Thiel’s speech at the Miami conference as the venture capitalist explained how advantageous Bitcoin is, as he permanently exited the crypto market.
As stated, by March 2022, the company had made $1.8 billion by selling most of its crypto assets. Most of the company’s investment consisted of Bitcoin.

The famous name stated that the value of Bitcoin is below
During his speech at the conference, Thiel did not mention or hint at the fact that his fund had sold most of its holdings. Rather, the investor urged participants to expose themselves to Bitcoin because of the value it brings to the table. Thiel also brought up the fact that BTC is actually undervalued.
