Reasons Why Gene Simmons Purchased ADA at This Time
Gene Simmons is accustomed to stating reasons for adding any digital asset to his portfolio.
In the case of adding ADA, the popular singer pointed out that the digital currency is currently cheap compared to Bitcoin (BTC) that currently trades above $50,000.
He thinks everyone should be able to afford the cryptocurrency at its current prices.
Gene Simmons noted:
“Why did I buy Cardano (ADA)? Well, for one thing, it’s affordable to almost everyone. It’s pennies compared to my other holdings like Bitcoin, which is over $50,000 a single coin. I believe everyone should be able to afford cryptocurrency. And here is one I believe in.”
Gene Simmons’ $300,000 Investment in ETH Becomes Over $1.3 Million in 4 Months
Before his latest investment in Cardano (ADA), Gene Simmons had invested in a number of altcoins such as Dogecoin (DOGE), Ripple’s XRP, among others. But his most significant profit came from his investment in Ethereum (ETH), the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.

According to the singer, he purchased $300,000 worth of ETH four months ago via Gemini exchange, which indicates that his investment in the leading digital currency has returned over 4x of his initial investment, considering the current prices of ETH.
The singer probably expects the same scenario to play out in the case of Cardano (ADA) since the digital token is still at the early stage of its outstanding performance.
