Veteran market commentator and CNBC host Jim Cramer has once again pivoted his stance on cryptocurrency — this time stating he wants to “own” Bitcoin ($BTC) and Ethereum ($ETH) as long-term assets for his children. Speaking on his show, Mad Money, Cramer described the top two cryptocurrencies as “hedges against the exploding U.S. national debt.”
A Hedge Against America’s Fiscal Crisis
The United States’ national debt has ballooned past $39 trillion, and many experts warn of growing inflationary pressures, potential dollar devaluation, and long-term fiscal instability. Jim Cramer now sees digital assets as a viable tool to protect future generations from those economic risks.
“I want my kids to have Bitcoin and Ethereum. I want them to own real value — not something inflated by government debt and endless printing,” Cramer said during the broadcast.
This is a notable reversal from Cramer’s past skepticism toward crypto. In previous years, he had warned investors about the dangers of volatile digital assets and even sold his Bitcoin holdings live on air. Now, he appears to be embracing a longer-term view in line with institutional sentiment.
Bitcoin & Ethereum: The “Digital Gold” Thesis
Cramer’s comments echo a broader shift among financial veterans who increasingly view Bitcoin as “digital gold” and Ethereum as digital infrastructure — both of which offer protection against macroeconomic instability.
-
Bitcoin ($BTC): Up nearly 120% YoY, currently trading around $111,000
-
Ethereum ($ETH): Up over 90% YoY, currently around $3,600
With the failure of key U.S. crypto regulatory bills and the Federal Reserve hinting at further monetary tightening, investors are looking for decentralized, non-sovereign stores of value.
Expert Take from Bangladesh
“Jim Cramer’s shift reflects how even traditional financial figures are recognizing crypto’s long-term value proposition,” said Imran Chowdhury, a senior analyst at CentBit.Online. “In Bangladesh, more investors are beginning to explore crypto not just for profit, but for protection.”
Crypto Adoption Continues
Institutional adoption is growing, with firms like BlackRock and JPMorgan offering crypto-backed products, and Bank of America reportedly working on its own stablecoin.
Jim Cramer’s endorsement may further mainstream digital assets, encouraging cautious investors to consider Bitcoin and Ethereum not just as speculative tools — but as multi-generational financial assets.
