<p>About six months after Paul Tudor Jones made his original investment case for bitcoin, the famed hedge funder says he likes bitcoin even more. </p> <p>In an <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2020/10/22/-paul-tudor-jones-says-he-likes-bitcoin-even-more-now-rally-still-in-the-first-inning.html">interview</a> with CNBC on Thursday, Jones — who leads Tudor Investment Corp — said that he was even more bullish on the digital asset, which he views as a potential hedge against aggressive central bank monetary policy. </p> <p>“I like bitcoin even more now than I did then. I think we are in the first inning of bitcoin and it’s got a long way to go,” Jones said. </p> <p>In May, the 66-year-old Tennessee native <a href="https://www.theblockcrypto.com/post/64398/paul-tudor-jones-says-he-is-buying-bitcoin-as-a-hedge-against-central-bank-money-printing">penned</a> an investment letter, dubbed The Great Monetary Inflation, in which he made his case for bitcoin as "the best profit-maximizing strategy." At the time, he said the firm's fund would likely allocate a position to bitcoin futures. Since the letter dropped, bitcoin has appreciated about 20%. </p> <p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-82027" src="https://www.tbstat.com/wp/uploads/2020/10/Screen-Shot-2020-10-22-at-10.05.35-AM.png" alt="" width="1622" height="1430" /></p> <p>Relative to other inflation hedges, Jones said bitcoin is the most attractive.</p> <p>“The reason I recommended bitcoin is because it was one of the menu of inflation trades, like gold, like TIPS breakevens, like copper, like being long yield curve and I came to the conclusion that bitcoin was going to be the best inflation trade,” Jones added.</p>
