What is the reason for the bans? Ray Dalio stressed that cryptocurrency users are easy to trace and transactions with digital assets are fraught with risks. Despite this, cryptocurrencies represent an alternative to traditional finance and may face outlawing in various regions of the world.

The billionaire also called cash “rubbish” and advised all market participants to diversify their investments in various assets and market types as much as possible. As for the billionaire’s personal portfolio, according to Dalio, investments in cryptocurrencies constitute “a tiny percentage” in it.
