Alongside Bitcoin, O’Leary also holds other cryptocurrencies including ETH, SOL, MATIC, AVAX, and HBAR. Digital assets make up 20% of his investment portfolio.

Interestingly enough, Kevin O’Leary, also known as Mr. Wonderful, has had a positive stance on non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Back in January, he told reporters at CNBC that with NFTs giving their owners access to private events and offering exclusive rewards, they’ll have a much higher market demand than cryptocurrencies.
