Cathie Wood: Bitcoin is making a push towards the global market for gold
ChainCatcher news, according to Decrypt, ARK Investment Management's founder and CEO Cathie Wood stated that she believes Bitcoin will one day be worth $1 million------just not anytime soon. In an interview with the Brazilian financial news portal Infomoney, she expressed her continued optimism about Bitcoin. She explained, "Gold is a trillion-dollar asset, and we believe Bitcoin can also get a piece of that." Wood said that this comparison is not just about value, but also about the fundamental role Bitcoin can play as a decentralized, private alternative to traditional currency.
Wood also mentioned that she believes Bitcoin plays a crucial role in emerging markets as a tool for individuals and institutions to hedge against unstable currencies and fiscal policies. She pointed out that the applicability of Bitcoin is very broad. Bitcoin represents a new era of finance------the first global, digital, and decentralized monetary system. This is a groundbreaking development, especially considering the closure of the U.S. gold window in 1971.
