BlockBeats News, February 11 — Val Vavilov, co-founder of Bitfury and an early Bitcoin investor, views the recent approximately 50% decline in the crypto market as a buying opportunity. Although he remains optimistic about Bitcoin, he emphasizes that Bitcoin is only part of his diversified investment portfolio, which currently also includes data center businesses centered around AI.

Vavilov did not disclose the specific amount he has purchased, but his strategy contrasts with other major players in the crypto industry who have made large bets. For example, Michael Saylor has invested $7 billion in Bitcoin since the market downturn in October. By diversifying across the crypto and AI sectors, Vavilov has maintained asset stability amid market volatility, with his net worth currently around $1.1 billion.
