Meet Joshua Miltz, co-founder of BitFund - SA's first diversified cryptocurrency platform for investors

Loading player...
JOHANNESBURG — Here's a very interesting interview with a very smart young South African guy who's still just in his twenties. Joshua Miltz, a computer programmer by training, is one of the co-founders of a South African FinTech business dubbed 'BitFund'. Now, BitFund describes itself as a single-entry point for investors to choose structured cryptocurrency investment portfolios. Currently, BitFund has three different types of portfolios that investors can choose from and they take a fee of 2.4% as well as a 1% exit fee. The minimum investment amount is R1 000 and with that, you get a spread of cryptocurrencies to invest in as well as the ability to track your investments, in Rand terms, on an online dashboard. BitFund, as Miltz explains, consists of three young cofounders all under-30 who span the financial and legal space, and they have some serious, experienced shareholders as well. It's a very interesting business to watch going forward, especially as they have plans to expand to Europe. Take a listen. - Gareth van Zyl Learn more about your ad choices.
