Anthony Scaramucci, founder and managing partner of SkyBridge Capital, reaffirmed his bullish stance on Bitcoin BTC/USD, citing its potential to surge further.

What Happened: Reacting to skepticism from traditional financial figures, Scaramucci stated in a post on X on Thursday: "The fact that some finance aristocrats still thumb their nose at Bitcoin means we still have plenty of room to run."

This, he believes, underscores the opportunity for Bitcoin's continued growth as traditional financiers either embrace or are outpaced by the digital asset revolution.

In a separate post, Scaramucci highlighted that Bitcoin reaching $100,000 aligns with his earlier prediction, reinforcing his confidence in the crypto's long-term potential.

Why It Matters: Scaramucci has consistently advocated for Bitcoin, often aligning with other prominent crypto enthusiasts like Michael Novogratz and major financial strategists.

His optimism contrasts with frustration toward the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and its chair, Gary Gensler, whom he criticized for a cautious regulatory approach.

In September 2024, Scaramucci joined other crypto proponents in predicting Bitcoin would hit $100,000 by the year's end.

By mid-November, he projected a $150,000 target if regulatory clarity improves, emphasizing the role of decentralized finance (DeFi) and blockchain in driving innovation.
