Why Justin Bons calls Bitcoin “fool's gold”

Justin Bons, founder and chief investment officer of Cyber Capital, took to X to criticize Bitcoin, describing it as an emperor without clothes and a meme coin. He cautioned traders against a lackluster attitude towards investing in BTC.

Loss of attractive qualities

Bons argues that Bitcoin has lost all its attractive qualities. Without capacity, scarcity, privacy, or long-term security, the asset has no legs to stand on. He posits that Bitcoin's key principles are no longer upheld and are now pioneered by other emerging assets.

BTC was effectively captured by a relatively small group of people who managed to entirely pivot the purpose, vision, and fundamental design of BTC. This did not happen without a fight. That history is now known as the block size debates, cumulating in 2017 when “Bitcoin Core” “won” and Bitcoin lost.Justin Bons

Criticism of Bitcoin's governance

Bons believes a group of people is still controlling BTC, stunting any attempt at expanding its potential against Satoshi's original design. He likens the current BTC governance to a dictatorship, stating it is incapable of scaling to handle large transaction volumes. The high fees and changed economic design threaten Bitcoin's future longevity.

Future Bitcoin predictions

Bons forecasts Bitcoin could collapse in the next 8-12 years. He suggests inflation beyond the 21 million cap may be its only savior. He states Bitcoin cannot be a medium of exchange without capacity and will fail as a store of value without security.

Bons advocates for users to support Bitcoin by abandoning it and awaiting the realization of Satoshi's vision in Bitcoin's successor projects.
