Shark Tank Star Kevin OLeary Stacking These Altcoins By the End of 2022

Kevin OLeary talks about the future of digital assets this year in an insightful talk.

O’Leary, an investor known for his snarky remarks on Shark Tank, recently stated that he is changing the way he will invest his crypto holdings due to the ongoing bearish trend. 

Bullish On Bitcoin 

The investor discusses his plans for investing in cryptocurrencies as we near the end of the year in a recent conversation with Daniela Cambone of Stansberry Research.

Unexpectedly, the veteran who had been bullish on altcoins but bearish on Bitcoin has decided to liquidate his failing crypto holdings and put the majority of his proceeds, if not all of them, into Bitcoin (BTC).

To put it another way, I’m imitating many other traders. As November begins, I have over 34 unfilled positions, several of them underwater. I must inevitably turn to trade in order to offset the tax burden associated with my holdings because the Internal Revenue Service and other international organizations now treat cryptocurrencies as securities.

Since Bitcoin is what I consider to be the “granddaddy index” of all cryptocurrencies, I wish to engage in trading by selling some of the projects that have been reduced by 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, and 90%.

The truth is that he is hoarding Bitcoin because he does want to gamble with his hard-earned money. He agrees with the other dealers that now is the time to sell everything.

That being said, he also mentioned that he may add some more Ethereum (ETH) to his crypto investment portfolio, citing the fact that the crypto projects with the greatest market caps are the safest choices in the bear market. Polygon (MATIC), an ETH scaling solution, and Solana, an ETH layer-1 competitor, are all expected to have a positive correlation in terms of pricing, he adds (SOL).

Kevins Favourite Picks For The Season

Kevin stated that he needs to own more Bitcoin, and perhaps some more Ethereum, to get through tax season.  However, the names with high market caps are essentially the ones that count. Solana, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Polygon, and Solana would be his recommendations for a basket of stocks to keep for the remainder of the year. 

Investors who were taking note of the aforementioned companies’ enormous market caps and potential inclusion in the same index were his target audience. He is not convinced that any of them stand out from the crowd. As a group, they make deals together. Therefore, Bitcoin is the most likely candidate for a single-coin portfolio.
