In a discussion with CNBC, yesterday, Lex Sokolim, Fintech Strategy Global Director at Autonomous Research said that investment specialists need to familiarize themselves with cryptocurrencies and its underlying system. Sokolin argued that traders and investors will buy BTC whether advisors like it or not, so both financial advisors and individuals have to adapt to the trend.

Lex stated that the underlying blockchain system is really essential to the kinds of business that people are developing at this point in time. Sokolin also commented that the wild instability of cryptocurrency market would not be sensible to go and fill your whole portfolio with virtual currency. On the other hand, he recommended that investing in digital assets is a smart way to add options to your broad allocation, something like three percent to five percent of your portfolio. Investing in this kind of asset can help your company grow.
