Fund Manager Bill Miller Unfazed by Falling BTC Price, Says Bitcoin Correction Is 'Pretty Routine'

The founder and chief investment officer of Miller Value Partners, Bill Miller, is not disturbed by the falling price of bitcoin. While acknowledging that the price drop looks extreme when compared to the stock market, he says it is “pretty routine” for the cryptocurrency.


Bill Miller Sees Bitcoin Correction as ‘Pretty Routine’


Veteran investor Bill Miller is the founder of Miller Value Partners and currently serves as the chairman and chief investment officer. He manages Opportunity Equity and Income Strategy funds. Prior to Miller Value Partners, he co-founded Legg Mason Capital Management.


While stating that he does not “comment on normal fluctuations in stock or asset prices,” Miller told CNBC this week:


If I liked something at higher prices, it is a safe bet I will like it even more at lower prices.


Miller continued: “The bitcoin correction, while extreme if it happened to the equity market in such a short period, is right in line with moves we have seen many times in bitcoin.”

He added that when he came on CNBC to comment on the market back in March 2020, it was “because that 4-week drop was historic.” In contrast, the fund manager emphasized:


This one in bitcoin is pretty routine.


Miller has long been bullish about bitcoin and his hedge fund has been investing in the cryptocurrency for many years. In April, he said that he did not see the cryptocurrency as a bubble, stating that BTC was entering the mainstream.


In November last year, he predicted that every bank will have exposure to bitcoin. Since then, a growing number of major banks have started offering or are planning to offer bitcoin investments to clients, including Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, DBS, UBS, and Citibank.

P2P Bitcoin Traders in Nigeria Think Outside the Box in the Wake of CBN Restrictions

After the Central Bank of Nigeria issued a directive targeting the country’s cryptocurrency industry, bitcoin and altcoin trade volumes on centralized exchanges immediately plunged. Nevertheless, the new regulations seem to have succeeded in boosting crypto trade volumes on informal markets or on peer-to-peer trading platforms. Nigerian Crypto Traders Get Creative Still, the increasing trades on informal platforms have also led to increased reports of users losing money to con artists. Moreover, with the CBN seemingly eager to see volumes of crypto trades plummet, Nigerian users had to find ingenious but legal ways of getting around the central bank’s imposed restrictions. As shown in one local report , one such legal way is through an app created by one local crypto start-up, Patricia. According to the report, this application is already enabling Nigerian users to buy or sell their crypto assets securely and without running afoul of CBN regulations. Therefore, in this repor...
