In just 16 years, Bitcoin has evolved from a marginalized Digital Money to an indispensable part of the global monetary system. The latest data shows that Bitcoin's market capitalization has reached an astonishing $2.4 trillion, accounting for 2% of the total global currency supply. This achievement is particularly remarkable, as traditional fiat currencies and gold took hundreds or even thousands of years to reach their current status.



This milestone signifies that Bitcoin has surpassed its mere designation as a speculative tool and is gradually being included in the comparative category alongside traditional assets such as the US Dollar and gold. In other words, Bitcoin has officially become an important participant in the global financial system.

As the status of Bitcoin continues to rise, people can't help but start to ponder: In the context of continuous issuance of fiat currency and limited liquidity of gold, will the proportion of Bitcoin in the total global money supply further increase? If this proportion rises from 2% to 5% or even 10%, what kind of changes will it bring to the global financial landscape?

The rise of Bitcoin is not only a milestone in the field of Digital Money but also an important sign of the evolution of the entire financial system. It reflects how technological innovation reshapes traditional financial concepts and also foreshadows the profound changes that may occur in the future forms of currency.

With the continuous development of digital assets, we may be witnessing the dawn of a new financial era. In this era, traditional assets and emerging digital assets will jointly shape the future of the global economy. For investors and policymakers, closely monitoring the development trends of digital assets such as Bitcoin will become increasingly important.

Again seeing new highs, unfortunately, I've been buying the dip every year until my legs are weak.
