Kevin founded SoftKey, which was later sold to Mattel in 1999 for over $4 billion. Kevin eventually founded O'Leary Ventures, as a means to invest in start up companies. In 2008, Kevin co-founded the O'Leary Funds and in launched an actually ETF.
A couple of years ago, during a interview with CNBC, Kevin said that bitcoin was a useless currency, since people accepting it want to hedge against its volatility.
But times have changes. Kevin sat down with Anthony "Pomp" Pompliano to discuss, crypto, bitcoin and defi recently. Kevin met Pomp several years ago on CNBC which Pomp told Kevin that he had 50% of his net worth in Bitcoin. Kevin said he was fucking crazy. But as much as Kevin was berating Bitcoin, in 2017, he started buying some Bitcoin and Ethereum.

But as much as Kevin was berating Bitcoin, in 2017, he started buying some Bitcoin and Ethereum behind closed doors. So why is Kevin starting to be vocal about cryptos now, eight months ago when the Swiss regulator, the French regulator, the German, the New Zealand, Britain, Switzerland and Canada started approving crypto related ETFs.
