Bitcoin: Bubble or Boom?
summary
Explains Bitcoin as an open-source public ledger using public-key cryptography, with about 1.2 quadrillion units live of a 2.1 quadrillion cap, current price cited near $954, and a private Bitcoin Investment Trust holding 70–75,000 BTC under trust. Claims: minute-level settlement, instant settlement and zero% transaction fee potential for merchants. Notes building blocks—mining farms, institutional exchanges, wallet custody services (Circle raised $9M)—and real risks: extreme volatility, theft, mining centralization and 51% attack exposure.
