Transformative Potential of Bitcoin: A New Financial Paradigm
This chapter examines the transformative potential of Bitcoin, comparing its impact to that of significant technological innovations. The discussion also addresses societal divides based on Bitcoin ownership and offers investment recommendations to capitalize on this evolving financial landscape.
I really hope you listened to last week’s episode of Wealth Formula Podcast. If you did, it may have convinced you to get some exposure to bitcoin in your portfolio.
And if you did that last week, all I have to say is…WELCOME TO CRYPTO!
As of this writing, bitcoin is trading at approximately $84,000, a decline of over 20% from its recent high of nearly $107,000.
If you’re not used to this kind of volatility, get used to it. And, I might also make the suggestion that you embrace it! Why?
Well, lets take a brief look at some bitcoin history:
The point I am making, of course, is that bitcoin has historically experienced significant corrections which have often led to rapid recoveries within defined periods.
It is not insignificant that there are some big buyers out there in 2025. The current dip coincides with increased interest from institutional investors:
This increased involvement has shifted the perception of Bitcoin from a speculative asset to one that is integrated into diversified portfolios. Even in 2017, a lot of smart people truly thought that bitcoin would crumble to nothing.
But now we even have government entities exploring bitcoin’s role as a reserve asset. Countries such as El Salvador have adopted Bitcoin as legal tender, and others such as the United States are evaluating its potential as a reserve asset.
Some U.S. states are considering legislation to allocate up to 10% of public funds to digital assets.
The point I’m making here is that bitcoin is not going to zero. In fact, the finite amount of bitcoin along with all the new buyers can mean only one thing over the next few years: bitcoin is going up in value.
What I am trying to say here is that you may seriously want to consider buying the dip. This is, of course, not financial advice. You can speak with your wealth advisor who knows nothing about bitcoin to do that lol!
Oh, and by the way, Solana got slaughtered too. And so you might look into that one as well since its better then ethereum in virtually every way but has a fraction of the current market capitalization.
If you are getting sick of all this crypto talk, I apologize. In fact, this week’s episode of Wealth Formula Podcast was supposed to be about gold and silver. But it turned out even the gold bug I interviewed had gotten infected by bitcoin and the conversation moved in that direction pretty quickly!
