“# Dan Loeb’s hedge fund hires pro-crypto Goldman Sachs analyst <\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

A research analyst from Goldman Sachs who has previously spoken favorably about Bitcoin and blockchain technology<\/a> will reportedly be joining New York-based asset management firm Third Point.<\/p>\n

According to a Reuters report today, Third Point hired<\/a> Heath Terry, a managing director of Goldman Sachs\u2019 tech division. He has been with the investment firm for ten years and will reportedly becoming part of Third Point\u2019s team handling venture investments.<\/p>\n

Terry has previously spoken<\/a> about Bitcoin (BTC) prior to the 2017 bull run, predicting the crypto asset was \u201cgoing to mature\u201d and would likely see more use cases. He said it would be \u201chard to see a world where blockchain technology doesn’t change the way we think about asset ownership.\u201d<\/p>\n

The addition of the seemingly pro-crypto Goldman Sachs exec to the multi-billion dollar hedge fund follows CEO Dan Loeb announcing on Monday that he had been “doing a deep dive into crypto” and implied he is looking into ways to bridge the gap between traditional finance and the crypto space. Some estimates put Third Point\u2019s assets under management between $15 billion and $20 billion.<\/p>\n

Loeb\u2019s potential inclusion in crypto as a prominent Wall Street investor \u2014 his personal net worth is more than $3 billion \u2014 had some speculating he could pave the way for others still hesitant about the technology and what it means for traditional finance. Already his announcement app<\/a>ears to have convinced Shark Tank star Kevin O’Leary, who said today he would be allocating 3% of his portfolio into Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

Cointelegraph reached out to Heath Terry for comment, but did not receive a response at the time of publication.<\/em><\/p>\n
