Four years ago, it was said that Bitcoin would be banned and its future looked bleak. Today, however, U.S. Treasury Secretary is comparing it to gold.
๐น Bitcoin = Gold ?
Recently, we heard this: "Bitcoin is evolving into a store of value."
This statement came from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. He highlighted Bitcoin's resilience during recent market volatility and drew comparisons to gold. For years, those who truly understood Bitcoin have been saying this, but now this perspective is coming from key figures like the U.S. Treasury Secretary.
๐น Institutional Acceptance is Growing
Blackrockโs CEO has been reiterating similar views for over 1.5 years. Of course, heโs also trying to sell his spot ETF, but what he's saying is not wrong. These are the same points we've been making for years, but now, these ideas are being acknowledged by major voices, such as the U.S. Treasury Secretary and CEOs of trillion-dollar companies.
The Conclusion:
Looking back at the past 4 years, it's clear how much progress Bitcoin has made. The difference between the statements made by Treasury Secretary Yellen back then and whatโs being said now is not just a shift in opinion, itโs a fundamental change. Bitcoin has passed the test of volatility with flying colors. However, it still hasnโt reached the same role as gold. This is due to two main reasons:
- Bitcoin is still misunderstood by many.
- Its widespread adoption is still in its early stages.
But donโt mistake it: The U.S. does not control #Bitcoin. Yet, the paradigm shift is already in motion.
