Ruchir Sharma, Managing Director and Chairman of Rockefeller International, claims that Bitcoin (BTC) is essentially a great idea. One that has been wrecked by too much access to cheap capital and speculative zeal, however.
Ruchir Sharma is the latest to join the list of well-known personalities who back the sustained existence of Bitcoin. Sharma expressed support for a currency system that is not based on the U.S dollar.

He pointed out that equities often drop by 35% during bear markets, which last around a year. The S&P 500 has only plummeted by 20% during this less than-a-year-old bear market.
