# **Some Hedge Fund Investors Skeptical of Bitcoin, Eric Semler: The Best Asset**

Chairman of Semler Scientific, a health technology company, Eric Semler stated that some of his colleagues in Hedge Funds still express their skepticism towards Bitcoin (BTC). However, he feels proud that he continues to acquire Bitcoin and acknowledges that Bitcoin is the best hedge for the future.

“I think they (the skeptics) consider it an unclear strategy and that this strategy may drastically decline after the Trump administration,” said Semler, quoting Coin Stories, Thursday (19/06).

As is known, Eric highlighted how all the policies of United States (US) President Donald Trump impacted the global market, especially the tariffs on trading partner countries. Although the global market was affected, Bitcoin remained at a positive level and held strong.

In fact, at the same time, after the tit-for-tat tariffs reached a trade agreement between the US and China, Bitcoin recorded a new all-time high of US$111,970 on May 23, 2025.

Therefore, seeing this skepticism, Semler sees the doubts from the traditional financial industry as an optimistic signal, especially since he continues to make money.

“When you bet on something that the majority of people don’t believe in, and you’re right, you will make more money. I think we have a great opportunity to show others that they are essentially missing out on a huge opportunity,” continued Semler.

For your information, according to BitcoinTreasuries, Semler Scientific now holds 4,449 Bitcoin with current profits reaching US$460 million. In fact, recently, Semler Scientific targeted to accumulate 105,000 Bitcoin in the next three years.
