Is Bitcoin Reliable?

Tesla also warns that the value of digital assets may continue to be highly volatile, which brings risks and uncertainties. In addition, it is an emerging trend and it is impossible to predict the acceptance of investors, consumers, or companies.

Why Do People Trust Bitcoin More Now?

There is a saying in China, ā€˜Collect antique in times of prosperity while buying gold in times of troubleā€™. In fact, when the economy is not good, people will buy gold to seek the preservation of their assets. With Bitcoin, they have more choices.

Regarding the question of whether Bitcoin has such a profound value, we do not need to discuss it again. The key is that the mechanism of Bitcoin makes it more attractive than traditional gold.

First of all, Bitcoin has a fixed amount. So there is no problem of inflation caused by spamming money. Secondly, Bitcoin can be used in more ā€˜freeā€™ transactions and has the characteristics of privacy or anonymity.

Although many countries currently do not recognize Bitcoin, and there have been many dark sides surrounding Bitcoin, the charm of Bitcoin has attracted the attention of more institutions and capital around the world, as long as there are huge profits.

Therefore, the industry has also begun to generally expect that Bitcoin will gradually ā€˜turn positiveā€™ in the future. The more funds injected, the higher the value of a single currency.
