TD₿: The Inevitability of Bitcoin's Price Increase Explained! - (a Swan original video) with Hurley
TL;DR: Bitcoin’s volatility isn’t a flaw—its utility as the ultimate capital market asset. Michael Saylor compares Bitcoin’s flow of capital to natural forces, explaining why its growth inevitable.
Hey Bitcoiners,
Bitcoin is ending an otherwise phenomenal year on a quieter note, correcting from a high of $108,000 to the mid-$90,000 range during the holiday season. Despite the 15% dip, Bitcoin remains up an impressive 108% in 2024, far outpacing traditional asset classes.
In today’s video, Hurley’s discusses how Michael Saylor, CEO of MicroStrategy, likens Bitcoin’s capital inflow to water flowing downhill—turbulent but inevitable.
He argues Bitcoin represents a more efficient allocation of capital, absorbing value from high-risk, depreciating assets. Saylor emphasizes that Bitcoin’s volatility is a feature of its unmatched liquidity and open market dynamics.
