Bitcoin is a real opportunity to rebuild a fully decentralized financial system based on true trust. It is the gold standard in the crypto world and the foundation that allows computers to connect and communicate. As more and more people begin to use cryptocurrency, the support of institutions and governments should be of great help in accelerating the adoption of cryptocurrencies in mainstream sectors, and this feat is expected to enhance its value.
The unique attributes of Bitcoin enable it to surpass modern and ancient currency at the margin and provide a powerful impetus for its growing popularity. In particular, the effective combination of censorship resistance and absolute scarcity has always been a powerful driving force for wealthy investors to allocate part of their wealth to new asset classes.
Because Bitcoin can be easily transferred across borders and does not require a banking system, it has become an ideal currency for people who want to escape hyperinflation. In the next few years, as fiat currency continues to follow its historical trend towards the lowest point, Bitcoin will become an increasingly popular choice for global savings. When a country’s currency is abandoned and replaced by Bitcoin, Bitcoin will transform from a store of value in that society into a generally accepted medium of exchange. In the future, if Bitcoin eventually becomes the global reserve currency, then the first countries to accept Bitcoin will get the most benefit on their balance sheets.
At some stage in the future, will Bitcoin be the new gold standard and possibly become a global currency?
