Blockstream

Theo Adam Back, nhà sáng lập #Blockstream , chúng ta đang ở giai đoạn đầu của một chu kỳ tăng trưởng mạnh mẽ. Ông chỉ ra rằng dòng tiền từ Spot Bitcoin ETF, MicroStrategy, các công ty lớn và nhà đầu tư cá nhân đang đổ vào thị trường, tạo nền tảng vững chắc cho một đợt bull run kéo dài.
Large Money is Flowing into Crypto
Despite some investors taking temporary profits, Adam Back emphasizes that Bitcoin still has great potential, especially if capital flows from gold ETFs gradually shift to Bitcoin ETFs. Currently, about 30% of the money flowing into Bitcoin ETFs comes from institutions, indicating increasing interest from professional investors.

The #bitcoin community is once again caught in a storm — this time over spam inscriptions clogging the network. And stepping into the spotlight is none other than Saifedean Ammous, economist and author of The Bitcoin Standard, who’s offering to fund a full-time developer to make spamming Bitcoin more expensive and difficult.
It all started with a thread by the pseudonymous developer GrassFedBitcoin, who urged Bitcoin Core to merge pull request #28408 The goal? To give node operators more power to filter out unnecessary data like JPEGs, which are causing massive blockchain bloat and threatening Bitcoin’s original purpose as sound money.
But not everyone agrees. #Blockstream CEO Adam Back pushed back, warning that filtering spam is like entering an "arms race" — spam code keeps evolving, and filtering tools would need constant updates.
Ammous, however, compared the situation to email spam, arguing that fighting spam is part of maintaining a clean system — not censorship. “Node operators already reject invalid transactions,” he said, “so rejecting spam isn’t a violation of Bitcoin’s principles.”
One community member even suggested that developers who create spam tools should be treated as "unwilling QA engineers" — and that Bitcoin Core should deprecate their methods while hiring external coders to crash their systems.
Meanwhile, Mempool Research reported that if the trend of inscriptions continues, the average Bitcoin block size could balloon to 4MB — up from the current 1.5MB, putting further pressure on fees and transaction times.
This heated debate reflects a deeper divide:
Is Bitcoin a monetary network or a decentralized data dumpster?
Binance users and traders should keep a close eye — this could reshape transaction fees, confirmation times, and the long-term role of Bitcoin in the crypto ecosystem.

Adam Back, CEO of Blockstream and one of Bitcoin's pioneers, recently made a noteworthy prediction: the current Bitcoin price is too low and could surge from $500,000 to $1 million in this four-year cycle. Could this be a golden moment for investors?

Current Bitcoin Price: Too Low Compared to Potential

In an interview with #Decrypt , Adam Back – a computer scientist known for his PhD in distributed systems from the University of Exeter and someone who has exchanged emails with Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin – believes the current Bitcoin price, around $103,300, does not accurately reflect its true value. Despite rising over 7% in the past week and only being 5% below the historical peak of nearly $109,000, Back believes this price is too modest given the cash flow pouring into the market.

At Bitcoin 2025, Blockstream unveiled a new corporate structure and app to support #bitcoin ’s growing role in global finance.

At the Bitcoin 2025 conference, Blockstream unveiled a revised business strategy and technology roadmap.
CEO Dr. Adam Back introduced the company's updated structure, centered around the message: The Future of Finance Runs on Bitcoin.
The company’s operations are now divided into three units—Consumer, Enterprise, and Blockstream Asset Management (BAM)—to better serve individual and institutional users.
“The past year has shown clearly that Bitcoin no longer sits on the margins of the global financial system—it is rapidly becoming the foundation,” said Back. 
“Our vision is simple: The Future of Finance Runs on #Bitcoin❗ . Guided by this idea, Blockstream is working hard to build the vertically integrated platform to support that transition, from individual self-custody to enterprise-scale asset issuance and regulated investment products.”
Market Context
Analytics firm SoSoValue reports over $41 billion in U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF inflows since early 2024, with participation from major financial institutions. 
States like New Hampshire and Arizona have proposed Bitcoin reserves, and corporate treasuries continue to adopt Bitcoin.
Founded in 2014 by Back, Blockstream focuses on infrastructure development while preserving Bitcoin’s core principles. 
Its research team, led by Andrew Poelstra, contributes to Bitcoin Core and cryptographic advances. 
Product offerings include Core Lightning (CLN), the Liquid Network, AMP for asset issuance and settlement, and the Jade hardware wallet.
New App for Self-Custody
Blockstream launched a redesigned version of its self-custodial app, building on the Green wallet. 
It supports Bitcoin and Liquid assets and includes hardware signing and air-gapped transactions via Jade.
“The new #Blockstream app isn’t just a wallet,” said Peter Bain, VP of Consumer Products. 
“It’s a gateway to the full power of Bitcoin—enabling secure savings, fast payments, and seamless management of tokenized assets, all within an intuitive interface designed for both newcomers and hardcore Bitcoiners.”
The app is available in 31 languages and maintains all prior functionality.
Enterprise and Institutional Expansion
Blockstream also highlighted updates to its enterprise platform, which enables token issuance, treasury operations, and integration with financial infrastructure via APIs. It runs on the Liquid Network and AMP.
“As capital markets evolve, businesses, institutions, and governments will need infrastructure that is secure, programmable and built directly on Bitcoin’s rapidly growing network,” said Back. 
“Blockstream Enterprise brings that infrastructure together—enabling asset issuance, management, and settlement on Liquid, Bitcoin’s first and most battle-tested sidechain.”
Blockstream reports that Liquid has surpassed $3.27 billion in total value locked. AMP is currently live, with further features in development.
Outlook
The organizational update follows a $210 million capital raise in 2024 and the creation of BAM, focused on institutional Bitcoin products. 
The company is expanding partnerships to integrate its platforms into existing financial systems.
“The financial world is waking up to what we’ve known for years,” said Back. 
“Bitcoin is here to stay —and it’s never been easier to build on it. From first-time users to trillion-dollar institutions, our aim is to give everyone the tools to participate in this new economy, with the transparency, security, and resilience that only Bitcoin can provide.”
