William Miller III, also known as Bill Miller III, is a former hedge fund boss who believes in the value investing philosophy followed by some of the best performing financial professionals, such as Warren Buffett. He has a storied career after working at Legg Mason in 1981 and losing substantial amounts of money during the 2008 financial crisis. After leaving Legg Mason, Miller set up his own hedge fund called Miller Value Partners. He worked at Miller Value as the firm’s chairman and chief investment officer until May 2023.

Currently, the fund’s chief investment officer is Bill Miller IV. One of his favorite areas is cryptocurrency. 2026 has not been a good year for cryptocurrency fans as the flagship Bitcoin is down by 26.5% year-to-date. Miller discussed cryptocurrency in a recent blog post. Unlike many, Miller believes that cryptocurrency does hold intrinsic value – a position that he explained in a recent blog post.

Miller’s argument is that the concept of intrinsic value as a representation of future cash flows does not apply to cryptocurrency. As for the definition of Bitcoin’s intrinsic value, here’s what he wrote:

“So, what exactly is the intrinsic value of Bitcoin? Putting a precise value on it is more art than science, but in a world with over a quadrillion dollars of capital,⁵ I believe today’s market value for the network at ~$1.2 trillion⁶ is far too low. An incomplete starting point would be the market cap for gold, in many ways a functionally inferior substitute as a psychological check on profligate fiat behavior. If the entire world viewed Bitcoin as such, it would trade at ~$1.4 million per coin versus a current value near $60,000.⁷ Of course, it is much easier to exchange, store and audit Bitcoin than gold, so this fails to capture its total potential. Viewed as a more robust network of capital governance, the potential should be far higher, and education takes time. It’s still early.”
