Takeaways
Bitcoin's pre-programmed monetary policy and its ability to run smoothly without external influence is a significant feature of the asset.
ETFs are expected to have a greater impact on Bitcoin's price development than the halving event.
Increased adoption of Bitcoin by publicly traded companies is still in its early stages, and holding Bitcoin as an asset on balance sheets is yet to be widely adopted.
The future of self-custody may involve hybrid solutions that allow users to store their Bitcoin through a platform while still being responsible for their private keys.
Coinbase's position as a custody provider for ETFs poses a potential risk, and competition in the custody space may lead to lower fees and diversification among custody providers.
Volatility is a characteristic of Bitcoin that works in favor of long-term investors, but it may deter some individuals from entering the market.
Regulatory frameworks for cryptocurrencies are evolving, and regulators are playing catch-up with the innovation in the crypto space.
The introduction of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) may impact the regulatory landscape and how cryptocurrencies are categorized. Not all digital assets are born equal, and regulators struggle to classify them.
The slow adoption of Bitcoin has been surprising, and a tipping point is yet to be reached.
El Salvador's adoption of Bitcoin is a bold move that could inspire other countries.
Asking high-quality questions is crucial for gaining a deeper understanding.
