"Bitcoin Eat Gold," States MicroStrategy Chairman

Bitcoin, often referred to as "digital gold," competes with gold. Michael Saylor, Chairman of MicroStrategy, in a recent interview with CNBC, mentioned, "Bitcoin will eat gold in the coming months."

He expressed that Bitcoin is far superior to other assets such as gold, real estate, and stocks, saying, "Bitcoin embodies all the excellent properties of gold, without any disadvantages."

Furthermore, Saylor highlighted the advantage of Bitcoin's ability to facilitate rapid and easy transfers compared to gold, suggesting, "People would prefer it if they could teleport gold from New York to Tokyo in minutes."

Bitcoin's price exceeded $70,000 on the 11th of this month, setting a new all-time high.

Given the numerous analysts and experts forecasting that "BTC will exceed $100,000 in this bull market," such predictions coming true could potentially lead to Bitcoin surpassing the market capitalizations of giants like Amazon and Google in the future.
