Bitcoin has been one of the hottest topics for years. And it’s no wonder why. It has shown on several occasion that it has the mettle to replace traditional currencies, especially in a time when fiat money is failing to deliver. On the other hand, Bitcoin and cryptos are making massive progress, driving whole industries forward. Bitcoin casinos are the most recent example – a successful and growing industry that’s been attracting millions of players.

Bitcoin has the backing of some high-profile people from all walks on life. From master investors to tech innovators, these are the top investors in BTC.
