March 11, 2021 Investors should explore both digital currencies and gold as both assets can be incorporated into a diversified portfolio. In the recent webcast, Gold and Crypto: There’s Room in Your Portfolio For Both, Frank Holmes, CEO and Chief Investment Officer, U.S. Global Investors, touched upon headline news that is predicting cryptocurrency assets like Bitcoin will completely replace gold as a safe haven asset. However, there is room in a portfolio for both. Cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and Bitcoin have enjoyed a spectacular year, with ETH up 1,294% since the start of 2020 and Bitcoin up 624% as well. The recent gains come after cryptocurrencies lost momentum and pared losses from two years of sideways trading over 2018 and 2019.
