Bitcoin’s role in the financial world continues to evolve, with discussions surrounding its potential as a currency, a store of value, and an innovative technology.
As more countries and industries adopt digital assets, Bitcoin’s finite supply and decentralized nature make it a unique player in the global economy. To explore these themes, Roundtable anchor, Rob Nelson, was joined by Mason Jappa, Co-Founder and CEO of Blockware, and Craig Shapiro, Founder of The Alethea Narrative.
"It's a perfect mathematical system," said Mason Jappa, pointing to Bitcoin’s decentralized nature and its ability to facilitate low-cost global transactions. "I would not be surprised if in the 2020s, Bitcoin becomes the number one valued asset class globally... There's only going to ever be 21 million coins."
Craig Shapiro focused on Bitcoin’s potential as a store of value. "The opportunity is still enormous," he said, noting that Bitcoin's lack of carrying costs gives it an edge over traditional assets like gold and real estate. "You can hold an unlimited amount of it for free on your own hard wallet outside the monetary system."
Mason Jappa concluded, "People are building on top of Bitcoin... It's changing the way people look at the world and value things. Bitcoin is here to stay and it’s becoming the new benchmark."
