For years, Bitcoin (BTC) has been labeled everything from a revolutionary technology to a dangerous gamble. Many investors still dismiss it as a speculative and volatile asset designed only for tech professionals and risk-takers. But according to one of America’s most popular financial advisers, that view is not just outdated — it might be costly.
In a recent conversation with Cointelegraph, Ric Edelman, the founder of Edelman Financial Engines, shares why he changed his stance on Bitcoin.
Just a few years ago, he recommended a cautious 1% allocation to crypto assets. Now? He’s suggesting as much as 40% for certain investors. What changed?
In our latest video, Edelman breaks down the evolving role of crypto in modern portfolios and why institutional investors, from pension funds to family offices, are finally getting involved. He also responds directly to some of the most common concerns people have about Bitcoin: Is it too late? Is it just a pump and dump? Could the whole thing collapse?
If you’ve been on the fence about crypto, or you simply want to hear how top-tier advisers are thinking about Bitcoin heading into 2026 and beyond, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss. Watch the full interview now on Cointelegraph's YouTube channel.
