The Real Threats to Bitcoin: Overlooked Risks!

Bitcoin has weathered every storm so far. So what threats has it not yet faced?

Regulation: Although the tone has softened since Trump, a new administration could exert pressure through banking access and custody rules.

Custodian risk: The collapse of a major custodial institution would shake confidence more than it would affect prices.

Mining centralization: A small number of mining pools could become vulnerable to government pressure. Stratum v2 and open ASIC projects are critical for this reason.

Quantum threat: Still a distant future, but #BTC developers are already preparing.

Fiat “correction”: It is nearly impossible for the US to adopt a truly sound monetary policy, but if it were to happen, Bitcoin's appeal could diminish.

The culture surrounding $BTC is as important as the technology that keeps it running. Running nodes, holding keys, and maintaining social support are its true “immune system.”
