Investing.com -- Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s government disclosure forms have revealed that he owns between $1 million and $5 million in Bitcoin, held through Fidelity Crypto. This news does not come as a surprise as RFK Jr. has previously expressed his strong support for the digital currency.

Kennedy Jr. has been quite vocal about his commitment to Bitcoin, stating in the past that he has invested the majority of his wealth into the cryptocurrency. "I'm a huge supporter of Bitcoin. I was here a year ago at the other Bitcoin conference. I went home and put most of my wealth into Bitcoin, so I'm fully committed," he has previously stated.

In addition to his personal investment, RFK Jr. has also spoken about the broader implications of Bitcoin. He has labeled it as the "currency of freedom", suggesting it serves as a hedge against inflation for middle-class Americans. He also views Bitcoin as a remedy against the dollar's downgrade from the world's reserve currency and as an escape from a burdensome national debt.

The disclosure of RFK Jr.'s Bitcoin holdings through Fidelity Crypto reflects his commitment to the cryptocurrency and his belief in its potential to address economic challenges.
