Gray Scale: Bitcoin is more like tech stocks in the short term; overcoming volatility is necessary to become "digital gold"

BTC-0,69%
ETH-0,92%
SOL-0,84%
LINK-0,75%

Odaily Planet Daily reports that Grayscale, a digital asset management company, pointed out in its latest report that Bitcoin’s recent decline to around $60,000 resembles a correction in high-growth tech stocks rather than a safe-haven pattern familiar to gold investors. This indicates that Bitcoin at this stage still functions more like an emerging technology asset rather than a mature store of value. Although Bitcoin has features such as a fixed supply and a decentralized network, making it potentially a store of value in the long term, its 17-year history is far shorter than gold’s thousands of years as a currency. Grayscale believes that the advancement of stablecoin and tokenized asset regulation, innovation in blockchain infrastructure, and the development of platforms like Ethereum, Solana, and Chainlink are expected to drive the next phase of adoption for Bitcoin and other crypto assets. Additionally, if Bitcoin can address scalability, transaction fees, and quantum resistance issues, its volatility may decrease, its correlation with the stock market could weaken, and its future performance might resemble “digital gold.” (CoinDesk)
