Salinas, who is chairman of the bank's parent company, Grupo Salinas, tweeted on Sunday that he thinks bitcoin is a good portfolio diversifier for investors and that he's working with Banco Azteco "to be the first bank in Mexico to accept bitcoin."
Salinas' comments came in response to a tweet by MicroStrategy CEO and bitcoin bull Michael Saylor, who had commented positively on a video of the Mexican businessman circulated on Twitter over the weekend. In it Salinas discusses why he thinks "fiat is a fraud," why he wants to hold bitcoin over the next 30 years and how witnessing hyper-inflation in the 1980s informed his thesis.
Salinas is the third-richest person in Mexico with a net worth of $15.8 billion, according to Forbes. In addition to the bank, his company also has ownership in a number of other retail and broadcasting businesses.
