Winklevoss Twins Reveal Their Top Altcoin Picks, Say Bitcoin Is Just Getting Started

‎‎‎ ‏‏‎

Bitcoin billionaires Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss just wrapped up a panel at 92Y in New York.

Video of the event has yet to be released, but the twins’ crypto exchange Gemini retweeted a live blog of the event from a New York-based analyst known as Will [Tradecipher].

The brothers remain as bullish on Bitcoin as ever, saying the leading cryptocurrency is now at the “bottom of the first inning” and just getting started. The two also named their top altcoin picks that they believe will last at least 15 years: Ethereum and Zcash.

The Gemini founders talked about their initial investment in crypto back in 2014, Facebook’s Libra and what it would take to shut down Bitcoin. Here are some of the top quotes.
