Bitcoin Ahead of Gold?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Salinas goes further in his analysis by asserting that Bitcoin<\/a> will surpass gold as the preferred store of value<\/strong>. This comparison is significant: The total market capitalization of gold is around $18 trillion<\/strong>, while Bitcoin’s market cap currently hovers around $2 trillion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Bitcoin to reach $1.5 million<\/strong>, its market cap would need to climb to approximately $31.5 trillion<\/strong>, thus significantly exceeding that of gold. A scenario that seemed utopian a few years ago is gaining credibility with the massive entry of institutional investors into the market. American spot Bitcoin ETFs have collected more than $100 billion<\/strong> since their launch in January 2024, demonstrating unprecedented institutional demand<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The billionaire also highlights Bitcoin’s<\/a> technological superiority over gold<\/strong>: Perfect divisibility, instant transfers, immediate verifiability, and a supply strictly limited to 21 million units<\/strong>. These characteristics make BTC a digitally superior asset<\/strong> in an increasingly digitalized world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin’s programmed scarcity<\/strong> plays a central role in this bullish thesis. With approximately 19.8 million BTC already mined<\/strong> out of the maximum 21 million<\/strong>, and a halving<\/strong> that reduces the issuance of new coins every four years, selling pressure mechanically decreases<\/strong> while demand explodes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
