TD₿: Is Bitcoin the Most Popular Asset in the World? - (a Swan original video series) with Dante Cook

TL;DR: Amid global fiat currency declines, New Zealand's central bank expresses concern about the crypto industry... ETF inflows continue to surge higher & Peter Thiel doubles down on Bitcoin.

Feb 14, 2024

Hey Bitcoiner’s,

With ETF inflows surging and high-profile investors like Peter Thiel backing the Bitcoin Standard amid global fiat currency declines, BTC continues gaining popularity among the other 6 billion as one of the world's top assets to store generational wealth.

While corporate balance sheets continue to melt like ice cubes, the conviction of institutional investors like Micheal Saylor about how to answer THE question few have been asked or are prepared to begin to address...

Should USD or BTC be every corporation’s reserve asset strategy?

Gresham's Law is heavily in Bitcoin's favor to become the next world reserve asset. Bitcoiner’s understand software is a very winner-take-all game and that investing in altcoin’s is ultimately a losing bet for +99% of humanity….

Centralized stablecoins like USDC and other altcoin networks are marketed as safe investments; however in reality, they are very vulnerable and exposed to pools of currency liquidity that “back” them with nothing more than marketing promise…

No different than the U.S. dollar.

If you manage a RIA fund or corporate balance, ask yourself: If i invested 1% of the company balance sheet…

Enjoy!

Tick tock next block,
Cory Klippsten
