With the launch of its 10x real-money portfolio, The Motley Fool will identify investment opportunities that have solid potential to increase 10 times in value within the next five, 10, or 15 years.
Alongside 39 other stocks that have also been pinpointed for their probable 10x returns, Bitcoin will be a core holding for the company.
The Motley Fool backed up their decision to purchase and advise its members to invest in Bitcoin with three key reasons, which are:
It will store value more effectively than gold, it could become a medium of exchange if prices stabilize in the next decade and can act as a productive hedge against inflation
While the company has allocated Bitcoin within its 10x portfolio, it will also separately invest $5 million to its balance sheet.
