1341 - Will We Buy Homes in Bitcoin Someday? I Don’t Think So, and Why You Shouldn’t Either Part 1 by Scott Trench
Manage episode 423845035 series 2813754
I don’t invest in Bitcoin because I am betting on the continuation of Western civilization, not its collapse or decline. If I did believe my government would collapse, I’d invest in guns, ammo, and canned corn. And if I believed that Bitcoin could peacefully replace my country’s currency, I’d still rather own real estate, businesses, stocks, or other alternative assets than a currency like Bitcoin.
At $1.3 trillion in market capitalization as of April 2024 and a price of $65,000 per Bitcoin, enthusiasts of the cryptocurrency, who I will refer to going forward as “Bitcoin Maximalists,” may think that they have another conclusive proof point validating their thesis.
