Franklin Templeton CEO Calls Bitcoin a ‘Fear Currency’
Jenny Johnson, CEO of Franklin Templeton, described Bitcoin as a “fear currency” that often overshadows blockchain’s true potential. She emphasized that blockchain infrastructure , including networks and node validators represents the most promising investment opportunities.
Mutual funds and ETFs are expected to adopt blockchain exposure over time.
Regulatory hurdles remain a key challenge for institutional adoption.
Johnson highlights that blockchain’s long-term value lies in its underlying infrastructure, not just cryptocurrencies.
Do you agree with Johnson, is Bitcoin overhyped, or is it still a legitimate store of value?
