Ray Dalio Sees 15% Bitcoin as Optimal for Crisis-Ready Portfolios

Bridgewater Associates founder Ray Dalio appeared on the July 27 episode of The Master Investor Podcast with Wilfred Frost to discuss asset allocation amid rising debt and currency devaluation. He focused part of the conversation on bitcoin, highlighting BTC as a valuable hedge with growing relevance in today’s economic landscape.

Dalio argued that fiat currencies are entering a period of structural decline, similar to the 1930s and 1970s, which could increase the appeal of hard assets. Asked directly: “Is bitcoin a legitimate currency to hold in that environment?” Dalio described bitcoin as “a medium of exchange and a storehold of wealth,” emphasizing “most importantly” its function as a storehold of wealth. Offering guidance on allocation strategy, Dalio said:”If you were neutral on everything, in other words, you didn’t have a point of view and you were optimizing your portfolio for the best return to risk ratio, you would have about 15% of your money in gold or bitcoin.”
