Mexican billionaire: ‘Buy Bitcoin, keep buying and HODL when prices are low’

Mexico’s third-richest billionaire, Ricardo Salinas Pliego, advises buying bitcoin, keep buying as long as the price stays low, and holding the cryptocurrency without thinking about selling.

“You have to buy bitcoin (keep buying when the price is low), then hold the BTC and forget to sell it… Trust me, you’ll thank me later.”

This isn’t the first time Salinas has recommended buying Bitcoin. He stated last June:

“Bitcoin is an asset with special characteristics… All the advantages that Bitcoin has make it gold in the modern world to me.”

Meanwhile, Salinas often attacks Fiat, calling it a scam.

“Governments don’t like bitcoin… because it’s a way for people to get out of their fiat trap, because fiat money is a scam.”

In November, he mentioned the “level of counterfeiting” in the US, saying that “old America is looking more and more like any other irresponsible Third World country.” Then he advised: “Buy Bitcoin now”.
