Strategic Value of Bitcoin: Threats and Dollar Resilience

Bitcoin is vying for strategic asset status as the global economic landscape evolves, but the dollar's dominance remains unchallenged due to growing global confidence.

Bitcoin and Gold: Ideological Comparison

CEO of Cryptoquant Ki Young Ju compared the current Bitcoin advocates to the 'gold bugs' of the 1990s. He noted that gold often surged during periods when the U.S. felt its global dominance was threatened. However, the U.S. consistently avoided reverting to a gold standard, opting for innovative growth strategies instead. Similarly, while Bitcoin is seen as a potential alternative, it faces significant hurdles.

The U.S. Dollar's Resilience and Bitcoin's Role

Global confidence in the U.S. dollar remains strong despite Bitcoin's rise in popularity. With increasing capital inflows, the dollar continues to maintain its dominant position. Many investors view the dollar as a safer haven than Bitcoin or gold. For instance, in South Korea, citizens prefer the dollar amidst the waning value of the won.

Economic Threats and Bitcoin's Potential

For Bitcoin to gain traction as a strategic asset, there must be dramatic shifts in economic conditions. According to Ki Young Ju, the U.S. would need to perceive a genuine threat to its economic supremacy. Any potential government adoption of Bitcoin would likely focus on enhancing economic leverage rather than implementing a Bitcoin Standard.

While Bitcoin's role may mirror gold's historical position, it seems unlikely to challenge the dollar's dominance directly. With the resilience of the U.S. economy, many believe the dollar's supremacy is secure for the foreseeable future.
